The Elector Count of Reikland is the ruler of Reikland, arguably the most important province of The Empire. This noble title is usually passed on in a hereditary fashion.
Being of the 15 Electors the counts of Reikland cast one of the votes in the election of a new Emperor. Being Elector Counts makes them one of the major candidates; indeed the current imperial dynasty is composed by Reikland count. They were counted among the major candidates during the Age of Three Emperors.
They reside the in the semi-independent city-state of Altdorf. The current Emperor and Elector Count of Reikland is Karl Franz [1].
