Alec was an important figure who lived in the years prior to the Great Calamity. He is most well known for uniting a multitude of small countries and founding one of the Four Great Nations known as the Kararagi City States, implementing within it a culture that strongly resembled that of Japan.
He is considered a world-wide symbol of success for merchants and, as such, is a figure who is looked up to by any individual remotely associated with business. This includes [Anastasia Hoshin](https://anilist.co/character/90177/Anastasia-Hoshin), who even named herself after him.
