Biography: Born in the city of Cádiz, Artemio grew up as the ninth child of a ninth child, an accident by all accounts. His father shortly retired to a monastery carved into the side of the Sierra Nevada when he was but the tender age of five. As a result, he bounced from Romero de Terreros branch to Romero de Terreros branch undergoing training in the management of finances, business administration, and a little bit of everything up to and including the subtle nuances of selling opium to Orientals, the optimization of plantation conditions in order to maximize slave population growth, or the general know-how of how to maintain and operate a sea-going vessel. Soon, he was shipped off to the University of Oxford and studied the Literae Humaniores during the Oxford Movement, where he forged his very unique views on how to solve the social issues of the emerging industrial economies of which, luckily, would not feature much in his own personal politics. He returned to Cadiz in the year 1836 to enlist with the Liberals and fought against the Carlist rebels in the First Carlist War, serving under Don Ramón María de Narváez y Campos and fought in the front lines at the Battle of Majaceite and continued to follow the leadership of Narváez until the insurrection against the Progresistas whereupon he voluntarily went into exile and bought a small corner house in Los Angelos and set to work for the next five years building up a fortune, calling in family favors, and establishing the new branch of the Monte de Piedad in Los Angelos. Following the example of his grandfather, Don Pedro Romero de Terreros, he stated sponsoring missions in the native tribes and the building of new monasteries, one of which he would hope to retire to. Admittedly, he also chose to serve as a mere private in the Californian Army in order to gain some future goodwill and ensure that his efforts and investments would have a slightly increased chance of going unhindered. Now, he hopes to give life to the people, civilize the natives, and ensure that the Californian society would be one of justice, not corruption, and as such has chosen to name his own political party, if you could call it even that, after the new Guardia Civil in his homeland in order to show his dedication to justice.
