Mari
CharacterMari rules the Czacho Kingdom and counts among the fifty sovereigns who gathered for the Levely. His nation answers to the World Government, granting him a voice in global affairs, though little else about him has been shown.
Appearance
Past his middle years, Mari has a broad triangular nose, heavy lips, and a thick beard. The manga shows him thinning on top, with growth clinging only to the sides of a high forehead, while the anime gives him fuller hair. A turban sits on his head beneath his crown, and he dresses in regal robes with jewelry strung about his neck.
Personality
His character has yet to be explored in any depth, and the story has revealed almost nothing of his temperament.

History
As monarch of a kingdom aligned with the World Government, Mari belongs to the select circle permitted at the Levely, which lends him a measure of sway over world matters. He turned up first in the Socializing Plaza of Pangaea Castle while eating a meal, then took part as the council's opening session got underway. Commentators tie both him and his realm to the Czech Republic: the name Czacho reads as a play on Czecho, and Mari may shorten marionette, a nod to the long marionette-theater tradition in Czech culture.
