Alexander II: God of Jerfs

Alexander II took over for his father in the middle of the JupitoCrimean War. As such, it became his goal to establish peace in the galaxy. Receiving a planet that was flawed in many ways, Alexander's challenge was REFORM. He took this drastically, improving industry, communication, government and economy. I, the illustrator of this history, would argue that his most important Galactic move was his emancipation of the Jerfs in 1861. This loosened class tension on Jupiter, and in turn fostered humanitarian progress.

Alexander wanted the best from his planet, but there were still Jupiterians who disagreed with his ways of reform. As such, many attempts of murder were committed against him. Ultimately he was done in by a controlled asteroid blast, but his planet commemorated his death by erecting a church where he was killed.
