Her Royal Majesty Queen Diane IV

1984 - Diane was born in Howtown. Her mother was the 2nd daughter of the Duke of Blackbeck (Queen Madeline) and King Walter II.

1989 - Diane was enrolled in the Westlinton School for Girls. A boarding school for students aged between 5-18. Diane was however not a boarder.

1995 - Diane switched schools to the Westlinton Sports College after being identified as a prospect for athletics. She was exceptionally good at jumping events. The school was designed to be a boarding school for children aged 11-18 believed to be capable of competing at an elite level.

1998 - Diane, in keeping with royal family tradition, joined the Army Cadet Force (uniformed youth group). That year she won the High Jump for her Detachment in the age group she competed in.

2000 - Diane sat her National Academic Exams and gained an average grade of B+. She represented the nation at an Under 17's international competition and won a silver medal. She enrolled to do Advanced National Exams in Physics, Chemistry and Maths. 

2002 - Diane passed with grade A's in all her ANE's. She had sustained a hip injury during the athletics season and discovered that she was likely to have further complications if she kept competing. She determined that she would instead try and become an engineer in the military until assuming some royal duties. She also wished to travel and after some negotiating with her father who in turn negotiated with King Sven of East Moreland she enrolled on a degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the Royal Northfort University. She was placed in an accommodation block that students referred to as the "Palace" as it was also home to King David of East Moreland and as such was of a high security standard.

2003 - For eight months Diane and the then Prince David Ironside dated. She attended several important events with the future King. There were obvious media reports of a future marriage. In November of that year her father died and she became Queen of Eskdale. She returned to Eskdale and after attempts at a long distance relationship and the realisation that the two of them would one day have to run seperate countries the pair ended their relationship.

2004 - Diane graduated with a 2:2 in her degree having transferred to the Air Force Academy to complete it. She had been expected to obtain a much higher grade however the mixture of study and royal duties pulled her down. She had delegated many of her duties to her uncle Stephen Paget who acted as a kind of regent for her.

2005 - Diane began dating minor noble Duke Robin Stoddard. The pair meet while supporting the efforts of the Eskdale Athletic Championships.

2007 - Diane and Duke Robin get married in January. She gave birth to twins Prince Harland and Princess Jocelin.
