[[Image:KingLouis.jpg|thumb|King Louis]]'''King Louis''' (Luis Guzmán) was King of Talossa following the abdication of [[King Ben|Robert I]] on 16 August 2005 until his own abdication on 29 November 2006.  He was the only Talossan sovereign who did not hold Talossan citizenship (a dichotomy later made impossible by the ratification of the amendment to [[Organic Law]] proposed by the [[Ziu]] as 35RZ35).
#REDIRECT [[Louis]]
 
Louis had been named a member of the [[Rouergue]] royal house and heir to Robert I's throne as [[Prince of Prospect]] by the passage of Talossan statutory law 33RZ10 which recognised Louis's adoption under Talossan law to Robert I.
 
As the minor grandson of Robert I's consort, [[Queen Amy]], Louis was unable to exercise the royal authority, so it was entrusted to a regent, [[Gregory Rajala]], appointed by the Ziu (Talossan statute 35RZ1).  The Regent exercised the royal powers on behalf of the youthful monarch, and per legislation passed during the regency, the Ziu became the ward of the King under Talossan law and so was empowered to act for the King on personal matters.
 
Many of the Royal Offices were established during the reign of King Louis, notably the [[College of Arms]], which began to petition the Crown for grants of arms.  The Regent also created [[Orders of Knighthood|knights]] and elevated some Talossan citizens to the [[peerage]].
 
In response to a request from Louis's natural mother that Louis be relieved of the crown, the Ziu, acting as Louis's Talossan ward (and guardian under statutory law 36RZ1), and therefore entrusted with making personal decisions for the King, abdicated the throne on his behalf on 29 November 2006.  With no other members of the Rouergue royal house eligible to the throne, the throne lay vacant, and the [[Cort Pü Inalt|Uppermost Court]] served as a [[Council of Regency (2006-7)|Council of Regency]] through the ensuing interregnum.
