(Current Archadian Queen)
Line 94: Line 94:
 
The current monarch is Queen Melanippe III.  Prior to her installment as Queen she was the Archadian Prime Minister and known as Maline.  She is currently 47 years old and formerly represented a mid-sized city/state in the Northeast area of Archadia Prime.  She has had a superb career throughout her time as a member of Parliament and as the Prime Minister.  However, [[Vice Admiral]] [[Ricky Wegener]] believes that she is not suited to be Queen but at least in this position she can do less harm than she could have as the Prime Minister.

=== Attempted Coup - 2387 ===

In the latter part of 2387 it was determined by intelligence officers on 900 that Aegina, the current Prime Minister, had hired an assassin to pose as an Archadian, and her Aide, in an attempt to sabotage the relationship between the Archadians and Starbase 900.  This included the use of a small contingent of Section 31 operatives working in the Delta Quadrant.  The plan, it seemed, was twofold:  1) upset the relationship between the station and the Archadians to the point that the latter would no longer allow the station to be in their area of space and force them to leave that sector.  2) Cast suspicion upon the Queen and several of her staff so that she would be seen as the creator of this plan and/or manage to assassinate her so that Aegina could take her place.

In the beginning, the plan went well for Aegina.  Queen Melanippe III was unaware of the goings on of her Prime Minister until suspicion of the act brought several Starfleet personnel to her palace once part of the plot had been uncovered.  At first the Queen was skeptical but was finally convinced and authorized 900's staff to continue their investigation.

Further evidence was brought to light about the PM's Aide, Zoudin Veist, by intelligence operatives Lt. (j.g.) Nenita Quidley and Master Chief Petty Officer Marcinko.  Veist, however, had found out Quidley's association with Starfleet Intelligence but she was able to escape with the help of Marcinko.  After a surgery to change her face drastically, a plan was hatched to have her infiltrate Archadian society in hopes of getting close to Veist for further information.  The infiltration was a much bigger success than initially planned as Veist fell in love with the operative, now named Leto, and presented her with an arrow, the Archadian ceremonial equivalent of proposing marriage.  Leto, who had gone on the mission hypnotized into thinking she was an Archadian named Imara, and with no former knowledge of herself as Leto, became Veist's mate.  This angered the PM who sent one of her cohorts to neutralize both Veist and Leto/Imara.  The guard failed and was killed by Veist who absconded with Leto/Imara in a personal shuttle.

Marcinko was notified by Leto/Imara, who had been programmed to send messages back to 900 after meetings with Veist, and gave chase from the station.  He located Veist's shuttle and was able to beam aboard wherein a fight ensued.  Leto, still thinking she was Imara, also put up a fight against Marcinko until he was able to remember the code word that would wake her from her hypnosis.  Both were finally able to kill Veist but not before he had given Leto/Imara information about Aegina and what she had been doing.

Once they arrived back on Archadia Prime, the two searched Veist's residence and found a hidden room where he had kept extensive notes on, not only his past activities, but also very detailed notes on what Aegina had assigned him to do, what all she had planned and more.  This information was enough to ensure Aegina's removal from her post.  Once presented to the Queen, she collaborated with 900's Marine Corps to round up all of the involved parties and bring them to justice.

While Archadia had not sentenced anyone to death in over one hundred years, threats and attempts against the Queen were, and still are, punishable by death.  Aegina was beheaded in a public execution and Melanippe III chose a successor for her position.
