Revision as of 08:38, 10 May 2005

The Empire of Allech-Atreus is built upon the love of the Emperor, Karl Franz von Hohenzollern. Its large population is defended by a military of something over 187 million troops, all armed to the teeht with the best weapons available to mankind. War is a facet of Allech-Atrean life, a part that is worked more often than the mouth.

The government is built upon the Emperor and solely the Emperor. Literally, hsi word is the law. However, the government is administered by many "Temples" which are run by "Templars" who are appointed by the Emperor. Such Temples include the Temple of War, the Temple of Agriculture and so on. These Templars are Kings unto themselves, but they are totalyl subservient to the Emperor. Also a part of the government is the Imperial Legation, the foreign policy arm of the Empire. All news flows through the Legation, into and out of the Empire. Made up of the fanatically loyal members of the Imperial Bortherhood, a secret society that very few citizens become a part of, the Legation is unfailing in it's duty to the Empire.

The capital of the Empire is called Shandabar, a massive city the is twice the size of Tokyo. The Imperial Conclave is located in the center of the large, walled city, and is virtually a paradise for all those who inhabit it. Tall skyscrapers reach upward, containing the day to day operations of the Empire. Works of art combining the architectural styles of the races of the world, the Emperor and his family live in sumptuous comfort and incredible richness.

The Empire is also ntoed for it's lack of civil rights. While the Emperor does not allow dissent, he makes sure that his people have everything they need. Progressive social policies giving large wages to workers and a powerhouse economy keep the citizens happy and living in comfort, while the Imperial education system instills love of the Emperor and also rigorously instills the tenets of higher learning in it's people. The education system of the Empire is one of the best in the world.

HISTORY

   ALLECH AND ATREUS
    Allech-Atreus was founded by the men who bear that name, Pythias Allech and Jhonas Kerstyn Atreus. (For purposes of regional RP, all nations are placed in  an alternate Earth reality). Born in Turkey, the Empire was given its start when Allech and Atreus declared a revolution against the Turkish government and gathered all those citizens disillusioned with the government to them. Ravaging the countryside with a peasant militia, Allech and Atreus became the hated enemy of the Turks, and unforgiving war was made against them. 
   THE BROTHERHOOD

Leading the revolutionaries, who called themselves the Brotherhood, Allech and Atreus rampaged for two years against the Turkish government, until they wer captured By General Mustapha Kemal of the Turkish Army.beofe their capture, they penned down the Code of the Brotherhood, a pseudo-holy text that laid the grundwork for the Allech-Atrean religion. The text came in two copies: The Allech Text and the Atreus Coda, each detailing similar thigs by differing in certain areas. These manuscripts were captured by the Turks and defaced partially, then discarded. Allech and Atreus were executed as enemies of the state.

    UNIFICATION

This was not the end, however. The texts were recovered, and a man named Ottokar von Termogent rose to the top of the Brotherhood and took control of the revolutonaries. Waving the texts like a banner, he oversaw the first of the Wars of Unification, and becamet he Lord Marshal, and then Lrod Emperor, of the Dominion of Allech-Atreus. Thosuands of people flocked to the banner of the Bortherhood, adn the Turks, after a series of wars, were defeated and the whole of Turkey was absorbed into the Dominion. Ottokar von Termogent died soon after this, having led the Brotherhood at the age of 70.

    THE EMPIRE

With the death of the first Lord Emperor, a new leader was needed. From the ranks of the Brotherhood came the next great lord, Lord Emperor Karl Dorit, the Whip of the Empire. Dorit organized the Army into a powerful fighting force, and unified his Dominion into a well managed nation, capable of competing on the world stage. Birthing the Empire, he ordered the first wars the Empire wouldever have, the invasion of Syria, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia. As well, he oversaw the overthrow of the Greek government and its subsequent anenxation, and then the invasion of Jordan.Declaring that Allech-Atreus was now an Empire, he made plans to expand even further: indeed, he hoped for world dominiation. unfortunately, he would never see his plans fufilled.

     THE KONIGSKAISER

Lord Emperor Karl Dorit died of a massive coronary failure in Istanbul soon after the invasion of Greece. His succesor was born from a long line of European monarchs, and he was brought into the Brotherhood as a young man. Karl Franz von Hohenzlloern, the great-great grand nephew of the Kaiser Wilhelm II, rose up after the death of Karl Dorit, and proclaimed himself the Koingskaiser of the Empire, the King's Emperor. Simpyl called The Emperor by many, he insituted authoritatirian control over he Empire and made the Brotherhood an elite group beholden unto him and him alone. Clamping down on foreign media, he instituted State press, and surprisinly, the people are happy with it. They are fed, cared for, and can get most of anything they want for free. Constant militaristic expansion became part of the Imperial canon, indeed, the reign of the Emperor Hohenzollern has seen the size of the Empire triple. He reigns still today, and his family is prepared to begin a dynasty for the ages.

      THE WARS OF EXPANSION

After the Emperor Karl came to power, the Empire steped into high gear. Forming an alliance with the Europena nation of Blackledge,the Imperial Army swept into the southern Balkans, invading Albania, Macedonia, and Bulgaria. Since then Albania has been ceded to Blackledge. The Hero of Unification, the Grand Marshal Stanislas Stychyschar, led the ARmy into the Middle East, conquering Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, Bahrain, Lebanon, and Qatar. AFter he became to old to head the Army, the Imperial forces swept eastward into Iran, and invaded the island nation of Japan. Tension with the new nation of NeoRussia forced the invasion plans to be put on hold for thr time being,but expansion elsewhere continued. The Army joined Blackledge in and invasion of the Nation of Nazarene, and continued with and invasion with India. Enforcing rigid social structuring policies, the 100 million+ Imperial Army kept the peace of the Empire well. The Philippines fell as well to the Empire, and plans for further expansion were made.

       THE END OF NEORUSSIA

The Empire of NeoRussia was destoryed by the cominbed ofrce of the Empire of Allech-Atreus, the Empire of BLackledge, and the Empire of AG333. The Imeprial army swept into the Caucasus, and the forces of the east swept north into China and landed on the coast. In an unusual turn of events, Moscow itself fell and surrendered before the Chinese did, but ut made no matter in the end. Russis was divided among the three nations, and CHina went rightfully to the Empire. However, after a bloody battle with the NeoRussians, a Chinese Peasant movement caling themselves the Hannists appeared ant threatened to destabilise China. Thinking quickly, the Emperor made the leader of this group, Liu Song Qing, the Kign of China, a vassal to the Emperor. Taiwan became part of China once more.

       THE THREAT OF WAR

Soon after this, the Empire turned its sights back West. In concordance with the nation of Elgarve, Allech-Atreus atacked the Sovereign Dominion of ubumedu, attacking Sicily (ceded to the MSD after the Ubumedu-Nazarene war) Sardinia, Spain, and Majorca. However, the Empire of BLackledge objected ot this expansion, and blockaded the Imeprial troops in. Following unfruitful negotiations to allow the free passage of troops, Blackledge and AG, as well as the nation of Dark Zion, assaulted Elgarve with full force. Seeking to end the negotiation, the Emperor sent an ulitmatum to Blackledge: end the blockade, or it will mean war. Blackledge ignored the ultimatum. Soon after, the entire Imperial Army mobilised and engaged Blackledge forces all over the globe, attackign Indochina, Africa, and the Balkans. With much of the Army wrapped up with Elgarve, peace was sued for, and the Army stood down. imperial troops flowed once again to the areas of invasion, and in fact expanxded the scope of the conquest to include the entire MSD- Spain, France, the UK, and Iceland. Ubumedu's government collapsed, and the regions became part of the Empire. in Germany and poland, Elgarve's government collapsed and the forces of AG and Blackeldge were victorious.

        THE MODERN DAY

The Empire stands as one of four great superpowers: The Empire of AG333, the Empire of Blackledge, and the Empire of Dark Zion. Each are mighty, and each can destory the world five times over. all nations ahve sent teams into space at one time or anyother, and the development of the first combat mech, the HAWC, brought the Superpowers leagues ahad of the rest of the world. Each nation utilizes plasma laser technology and shielding tech developed by the Empire, the HAWCs developed by Blackeldge, and the computer systems created by Dark Zion.

The question as of now, is where will the world go?
