Michael III was the King of Prydon between 1901 to 1938. His reign was known for Prydon's transition to a Constitutional Monarchy, following the success of the 1906 Revolution. Initially repressive and autocratic, King Michael III ruled directly without a State Minister, and orchestrated several purges following the suspicion around King Ferdinand VIII's death and rumours of the May Cabinet's revenge. The revolution of 1906 forced him to agree with a Constitution drafted by the newly assembling Lasornü, a legislative body directly elected by the people, and to share his power with an elected State Minister. Since, the King focused on cultural and religious affairs, refurbishing the Royal Catacombs of St. Talienie in Lasvorn, as well as constructing the Lasvorn Grand Theatre. The King built the Valvine Dacha on the outskirts of Lasvorn as his hunting lodge and summer residence. He fostered an alliance with the House of Lichtenburg-Hohenzollern, the ruling dynasty of Weisserstein, by marrying Crown Princess Vielie II to Albrecht-Friedrich.
