Born into the position of Empress, Mar'Dikan lived a life of luxury, groomed for the day she would officially take the throne. As one of the last of the Voidwalkers, (Force-Sensitive Zhornee), she received training from the greatest in her Empire.
She came to live for the next pleasure, paying little attention to the ever-waging civil war and plagues that killed her people in the millions. At the age of thirteen, she was crowned Empress of the Zhornee Empire, and over the next four years, she groomed her people to take to the stars. However, another outbreak of rebellion nearly halted her plans, and she decided that now was the time to call for help.
At the age of seventeen, she declared that her home planet of Vullain was available for outsiders to visit, and took charge of crushing the rebels on her planet.

Now that you mention her age, she does seem rather youthful. Though that can be both a blessing and a curse. Youth is a time for growth, expansion - but it can be so dreadfully abbreviated and slow for those who do not spend those years wisely.

Slightly edited; added a little more detail about her decision to open up her Empire to the galaxy.

Is that you, Chiang Kai-Shek?

 

[Aidan Moonrunner]

Chiang Kai-Shek was the leader of the Guomingdang forces during the Chinese Civil War. Historically, his GMD controlled China's cities while the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) controlled the countryside. When the Japanese invaded he spent much of his time acting like they weren't there until he was kidnapped by two of his generals and forced to make a peace with the CCP. While the peace was mostly just in name, both the CCP and GMD fought both the Japanese and each other from 1931 to 1945.


Despite massive amounts of aid and huge amounts of outsider interference - America for the GMD and the Soviets for the CCP - on most days Chiang couldn't be bothered to view the civil war as a real civil war.

 

[Aidan Moonrunner]

Huh. Yeah, that's applicable.
I would've never thought of that.
