The Royal Convert: A Tragedy is a play written by Nicholas Rowe and first published in 1714. The story is set in ancient Persia and follows the tragic fate of the princess Mandane, who falls in love with a Christian prince named Arbaces. Despite the opposition of her father, the king of Persia, Mandane converts to Christianity and marries Arbaces. However, their happiness is short-lived as the king discovers their secret and orders their execution. The play explores themes of love, faith, and the clash of cultures.
