Álvaro X of Kibangu

Álvaro X Nimi a Mvemba Água Rosada was a ruler of Kibangu and was the first Água Rosada claimant to the throne of the Kingdom of Kongo during its civil war. He ruled the Kingdom of Kibangu from 1688 to 1695.[1]

Rule

During the reign of the previous King of Kibangu, Álvaro and his brother led a faction that was unsatisfied by his rule. They managed to overthrow Manuel I in 1688 and Álvaro took the throne. During his reign, the king was able to keep the forces of the other two claimants to the Kingdom of Kongo at bay. The king was the first civil war claimant to Kongo to be of the Água Rosada house where there was a parent from each of the main houses of Kinlaza and Kimpanzu.[2] This was not a real house at the time of Álvaro's rule, and was only after his death in 1695 when his successor, Pedro IV formed it as a house to end the civil war and reform the Kingdom of Kongo.

gollark: Modern technology requires on highly complex global supply chains and industry, so you can't exactly just live off a garden and have nice things like "medicine" and "computers" and "electric lighting".

gollark: > And just so its clear I am a minarchist I just think the government needs to do some shitI roughly agree with that. I'm just not sure that the specific set of stuff it needs to do includes phone lines and such.

gollark: You can have... multiple phone line companies? We do in lots of places, even.> you made it so why let anyone else use itThey can pay you for it.> In times of high darwinist selection, it doesn't matter what the current paradigms are.Um. No.

gollark: I was replying to BearcatBen with the "People who need them?" thing, but oh well, ye,s very edgy.
