A Vampire Monarch is a vampire who rules over a U.S. state on the HBO original series True Blood. The state, which also forms the vampire monarch's Kingdom, or, in the case of former Vampire Queen of Louisiana Sophie-Anne Leclerq's territory, Queendom, is overseen by the vampire monarch, who also has authority over his or her vampire subjects. Although the territories are under complete reign by their individual monarch, they still remain under the jurisdiction of the Vampire Authority in the vampire hierarchy. __TOC__
