    The Imperius Reich is a sovereign nation-state spanning the whole of the Continent of Eastera.

    The Reich began in the Third Era, by Riverland settlers whom, after the Great Grief, under Borous of Blackwater Base, requested the Emperor of Kythira to receive land and independence. In return for Blackwater Base, Kythira granted the group the small desert island of Dorwall, just off the coast of Redstonia, as well as all territory they may colonize on the continent of Eastera, east of the Narrow Sea.

    History

    The Imperius Reich began in the Third Era, as the Empire of Imperius. After Coetzeeclan, the Emperor of Kythira, had started to unify and rebuild the Old World, a group of Riverlanders, led by Borous of Castle Blackwater, requested the Kythiran Emperor to allow them to form their own independent nation. This request was granted by the Emperor, and he bestowed upon them the small desert island of Dorwall, just off the coast of the Fortress City of Redstonia, as well as all lands of Eastera, the unexplored continent east of the Narrow Sea. In return, Kythira received the Castle of Blackwater, which they considered a historical structure.


    Setting sail towards the island, they used their boats to construct the first homes, which eventually would transform into the town of Dorwall. Whilst Kythira was working on making the Old World a unified whole, the people of Imperius began the Great March East, colonizing vast plots of Eastera, before that unexplored. Forming numerous towns and cities, eventually the lands colonized became so vast they matched Kythira in size.

    Government and Politics

    Unlike the Empire of Kythira, the Imperius Reich has an elected monarch with full autocratic power. The seat of power, Eagles Reach, inside the capital city of Imperia, is where national and international matters are discussed and deliberated upon. Though several peace treaties with the Kythiran Empire exist, conflicts between the two nations are relatively common, often resulting in new treaties and sometimes the annexation of territory.

    Military

    Whilst the Kythiran military is primarily split among separate armies, each under the control of their respective High-Lord, the Imperius military is one unified force, which in terms of manpower far outmatches the Kythirans. This often results in military standoffs between the nations, but so far a full war has never occurred between the Empires. For this, leading scholars have several theories:


    The Trauma Theory

    The Trauma Theory states that the two Em


    possibly due to the collective trauma of the Great Grief. The Imperius military is also one of the most well funded in the world in terms of research and development, constantly bringing new types of weaponry and technological advancements to Minecraftia.

    Economy

    The currency of the Empire is the Green Dragon Emerald. It's economy in general consists of trade between the provinces and to a lesser extend trade with the Imperius Reich.

    The Province of Camuria holds the Imperial Mining Company, the Province of Alcanzar the Imperial Forestry Company, the Province of Ardoragh mostly has a service based economy, quite like the one the Kingdom of Redstonia had during the Second Era.

    The Crown Provinces focus on a combination of taxation of the Golden Provinces, the production of food and trade with Imperius via the Imperial Trading Company, located in Helmira, which has a monopoly on trade with foreign powers.

    A lot of the economy of Kythira runs through Ardoragh these days, as the world's largest province houses many natural resources, and beside that there is plenty of trade to go around with the many small villages scattered all around Ardoragh.

    Official Languages

    Being a people originating from the Riverlands in Westeria, they share the same languages as the Kythirans, these being:

    Riverlandish: Based on the Dutch language

    Low-Riverlandish: Based on the English language

    Redstonian: A mixture of Germanic and Nordic languages

    These three different languages are a legacy from the Second Era and the different city-states across Westeria.

    Kythira is ruled by the House Coetzee, a noble house that is among the oldest houses in Westeria, like House Whaza or the extinct House Mercenary. Originating as Riverlanders, they were the ones to first create a unified state: The Kingdom of Kythira. Today, only two members of the house remain: Lord Squarepantstoo, who lives in Castle Fuertera, and Emperor Coetzeeclan.

    Noble Houses

    Kythira, being ruled by a noble class, has several noble houses amongst her citizens, the most important of these being the following:

    House Whaza:

    Though originally a royal house in the Second Era, House Whaza today is the second most powerful noble house within the Empire of Kythira after the Royal Family. After being knighted Knight of the Tower, Lord Whazajottom, the former King of Redstonia, was elevated to the position of High-Lord of Ardoragh. Later on he was even given the rank of Crown Prince of Kythira, meaning he is to seize power once the Emperor ceases or steps down from his service. This makes Whazajottom's full title Crown Prince Whazajottom of Kythira, High-Lord of Ardoragh and Knight of the Tower. His brother, Duke Corspin, rules the city of Kreonix in High-Lord Whazajottom's name. High-Lord Whazajottom himself resides in his palace in the city of Alralysva, but due to his powerful position, he also has a residence in the Empire's capital of Helmira, namely the Ardoragh Palace.

    House Joey:

    Riverlandish in origin, House Joey is the ruling house of the province of Alcanzar. The only surviving member of this noble house, High-Lord SillyJoey rules the well defended but economically weak province from castle Verano in the city of Solleria.

    House Agricola:

    The House Agricola claim themselves to be related to Consul Republic, the founder of the short-lived Federation of Provinces in the Second Era. Today their last remaining member, though not being of true nobility, rules the Golden Province of Camuria in the absence of a High-Lord. This is Lord-Protector P. Decius Agricola. They were also a leading cause behind the re-militarization of the Kythiran Royal Guard, producing what we today know as the Imperial Legion.

    House Wolf:

    House Wolf is a young house, being elevated into nobility during the Fourth Era. They founded and were behind most of the construction of the City of Yrticil. The current head of the house, and ruler of the city in name of High-Lord Whazajottom is Duke WhiteWolfXD98.

    House Hjerte:

    Like House Wolf, House Hjerte is one of the youngest noble houses, being elevated into nobility during the Fourth Era. They are behind the construction of a massive palace, the largest the world has seen at that stage, in the middle of the Fjarthrond Forest. The current ruler of this house is Duchess Hartje.

    The The Imperius Reich is located on the east of The Kythiran Empire and spans the whole continent of Eastera

    The Empire was founded from a large portion of the survivors of the Great Grief During the beginning of the Third Era, It was founded By the Jarl Borous of Blackwater Base. He together with other members of the Unific Order Founded the the Imperius Reich. With this the scattered groups of Eastera were united into one Autocratic Union State. Shortly after this Borous Was automatically elected as Kaiser Of the Imperius Territories that was now known as the Imperius Reich.


    The Reich's main seat of power is located in the Eagles Reach inside the Reich's capital: Imperia


    The Reich is split up in multiple provinces and each Ruled by its own chancellors who stand only beneath the Kaiser himself. The territories outside these provinces are refereed to as the Farlands and are subdue to strip mining by the Reich and are often found to be the source of conflict against the outer provinces.
