Alexander Davion was the only child of Edward Davion, who had himself been the only child of First Prince William Davion. Through a combination of events, Alexander found himself named heir to the Federated Suns at the age of just five years old; by the time William Davion named Alexander as his heir shortly before dying of the Spotted Fever Plague, Edward Davion had already died in combat against the forces of the [[Capellan Confederation]] and Alexander's mother had died when her [[DropShip]] was destroyed off the world of [[Avigait]]. The Federated Suns [[High Council]] named five regents to oversee the Federated Suns until Alexander reached the age of majority; these regents included his aunts, [[Laura Davion]] and [[Cassandra Davion]], Cassandra's husband [[David Varnay]], and [[General]] [[Nikolai Rostov]], Prince of the [[Terran March]].<ref name="H:RWp51"/>

Unfortunately, the various regents proved to be more interested in furthering their own interests than they were in ruling the Federated Suns well; Alexander was kept as a hostage in all but name by Cassandra and David Varnay, and by [[2525]] Alexander was married to their daughter, [[Cynthia Varnay]], as civil war erupted in the Federated Suns. Laura Davion battled the Varnays for control of the Federated Suns, while Alexander found himself threatened by a group of [[Capellan Confederation]] assassins whichDavid had allowed to act. A street battle ensued in [[Sekulmun]], but thanks to Alexander's security team and the help of a group of Federated loyalists, they managed to escape from acptivity.<ref>''Three White Roses'' </ref>
