Arnen IV, born Arnen Nesari Pragan Nimya (11 May 1889 - 28 December 1964), was the King of Risevne from 16 January 1938, when he succeeded Nesari II, to his death.
Arnen IV's rule was by far one of the most eventful of any Risevani monarch since the Restoration. During his reign Risevne entered the Fourth Global War, during which it would lose nearly 3 million dead out of a population of 54 million; throughout the course of this war the King was famous as a symbol of national resistance, especially by his refusal to move out of Rasami Palace even after he was wounded by shrapnel when the palace was bombed. After the war he became an outspoken advocate of international cooperation to enforce peace, and helped turn public opinion in favour of Risevne's participation in the International League. In 1954 he set up the Risevne Royal Award for Peace, and in 1956 the League awarded him the International Achievement Prize for Peace.
