Career Objectives

I am a proactive and relatively progressive manager looking for an administrative position in a kingdom looking to expand. My "can do" attitude and experience consolidating western Europe and defending an empire from barbarian invasion and jihad, combined with diplomatic and leadership skills honed during a 30-year regency and a 13-year imperial reign, far exceed any difficulties that may be caused by my death in 814.

Languages

Spoken: Frankish, Latin, Greek, and several Teutonic dialects.   Read: Latin and Greek.
