Luiz II of Brazil

Luiz II (Luiz Gastão Henrique Pedro Miguel Gabriel Rafael Gonzaga) (born February 21, 1983) is the current ruling Emperor of Brazil. He is the second son of Emperor Pedro IV and his wife, Empress Maria. Alongside his role, he is also the head of the Imperial Family of Brazil. He assumed the throne of Brazil in 2010 following the abdication of his brother.

He is also known for expressing hard-right views and his opposition to homosexuality. Supporters have claimed he has been instrumental in restoring the moral integrity of Brazil, whilst critics have accused him of overstepping his constitutional role and making inappropriate political interventions.

Reign
During the 2014 and 2018 elections, Luiz II has supported the Progressive Reform Party under the leadership of Levy Fidelix, an unprecedented move with no other monarch in Brazilian history ever explicitly supporting a political candidate or party.

Integralism
Luiz II has spoken positively of the prime ministry of Plínio Salgado, declaring that "a few more decades of him and women would have remained in the kitchen."

Matthew McConaughey
In 2012, Luiz II issued a royal decree ordering the arrest and execution of future Texan Governor Matthew McConaughey. The decree was later annulled in a near-unanimous vote by Parliament. Foreign observers have speculated this is due to an alleged affair McConaughey has had with Luiz II's wife in 2006.

Homosexuality
In a June 2011 interview with Playboy magazine, Luiz II said, "Brazil is incapable of having a gay King", and added if his heir apparent was gay, he would "disinherit him and bar him from the succession". In the same interview, he said that any LGBT rights activists that protested his rule "would be beaten by the Royal Guard."

Misogyny
Luiz II believes that "feminism is a cancer that will destroy Brazilian society and turn my daughter into a man." A leaked insider report has indicated that these remarks have caused Isabel Maria to estrange herself from her father.
