Emperor Alman I[1] (d. 123 AG) was the seventh Emperor of the Known Universe (r. 104–123 AG), succeeding his brother-in-law Elrood I al-Aziz as ruler of the Corrino Imperium.[1]

Alman founded the House of Alman Corrino, which for centuries would struggle with the senior House of Saluso Corrino for rule over the Imperium.[1]

Reign[]

Before his rise as emperor, Alman was known as Alman bin Haig.[2] He was thus presumably the son of a man named Haig. Alman was a brother-in-law of Emperor Elrood I al-Aziz (r. 104–123)[1] and thus married to a daughter of Emperor Saudir I (r. 12 BG–70 AG).

In 123, Elrood I was assassinated and Alman replaced him on the throne,[2] founding the House of Alman Corrino.[1] Elrood's nephew and rightful heir, Saudir II Negara II, fled into exile.[2] In 122, Alman brought a bill of attainder before the Landsraad, accusing Elias Atreides of supporting the forces of the exiled prince. Alman was himself assassinated[2] in 123 AG,[1] before the bill could be acted upon.[2] Saudir II then assumed the throne.[1] Among Saudir II's actions as emperor was to reconfirm Elias Atreides in his titles.[2]
