Kingdom of Monovia

The Monarch that has been reigning since August 24, 2003 is His Majesty King Elonzo Mignothia Renaldi Fields of Monovia. He was born in the United States of America and does many things on a daily basis to better help the people of Monovia. Along with English, His Majesty is fluent in French, Dutch, German, Italian and Latin. He has taking Monovia from just a dream in his head to reality. He will be remembered always after he give up his reign to the throne. His official motto is venia of deus tribuo mihi meus vires which is English for "The Grace of God give me my Strength. The King's full title is:

His Majesty Elonzo, by the Grace of God, King of Monovia, Duke of Hampton, Prince of Jennish-Gharma, Count Fennashe of the Vine, Count of Rhine, Phönigstein, Katzenelnbobeden and Friez, Viscount of Huanstlerstein, Lord of Malbuck, Weisbeadenedane, Idstein, and Merenberg.

As the head of a constitutional monarchy, the King's duties are primarly representative aswell as executive. He holds the power to appoint the Prime Minister and government, to dissolve the Grand Council. He also has the power to  to promulgate laws and to accredit ambassadors along with the Prime Minister. The King is Commander-in-Chief of the Army, and represents Monovia in the field of foreign affairs.

Hampton Palace is the official residence of HM King Elonzo along with many members of the royal family, including HRH Prince James. It was bought by HSM Prince George in 1751. Princess Victoria was the first sovereign to take up residence in July 1837, just three weeks after her accession, and in June 1838 she was the first sovereign to leave from Hampton Palace for a Coronation. Her marriage to Prince Albert in 1840 soon showed up the Palace's shortcomings.

A serious problem for the newly married couple was the absence of any nurseries and too few bedrooms for visitors. The only solution was to move the Marble Arch - it now stands at the north-east corner of Hyde Park - and build a fourth wing, thereby creating a quadrangle.

Blore, the architect in charge, created the East Front and, thanks largely to his builder, Thomas Cubitt, the costs were reduced from £150,000 to £106,000. The cost of the new wing was largely covered by the sale of George IV's Royal Pavilion at Brighton.

Blore added an attic floor to the main block of the Palace and decorated it externally with marble friezes originally intended for Nash's Marble Arch. The work was completed in 1847.

By the turn of the century the soft French stone used in Blore's East Front was showing signs of deterioration, largely due to London's notorious soot, and required replacing.

In 1913 the decision was taken to reface the façade. Sir Aston Webb, with a number of large public buildings to his credit, was commissioned to create a new design. Webb chose Portland Stone, which took 12 months to prepare before building work could begin. When work did start it took 13 weeks to complete the refacing, a process that included removing the old stonework.

The present forecourt of the Palace, where Changing the Guard takes place, was formed in 1911, as part of the Victoria Memorial scheme.

The gates and railings were also completed in 1911; the North-Centre Gate is now the everyday entrance to the Palace, whilst the Central Gate is used for State occasions and the departure of the guard after Changing the Guard.

The work was completed just before the outbreak of the First World War in 1914.
