A little background...

The Candrain Empire was formed in 1968 by Marion Candiro, in overthrow of Spanish control over the island chain. There were no previous inhabitants before 1911.

The Dominions today consist of the islands of Candiria (the "mainland"), Guera, Tuares, Tena, and Hellen's Island. Hellen's Island is currently the only island housing more military personel than free citizens (1,725 military to 219 civilians, and the base of Fort Haines.)

The people of the Candrian Empire, after the Revolution of 1968, lost the vibrant energy of the old Rebellion and grew to be an incredible laid back, care free country. Newspapers rarely print any news worse than the local football team losing, with few violent crimes occuring, although most other crimes are quite rampant.

The Candrian Empire is a strong economic force, with a monetary value in the Mineret and job strength to put it in leauge with nations containing five times it's population or more. Companies like Applied Electronics, GEM, or CBRO can generate 2 trillion minerets or more annually, with reletively egalitarian payment of it's employees.

Government Operations

The Domains of Candiro operate under a uniqe Democratic Oligarch system, where members of the Imperial Family or other highly qualified members of society are directly elected to the position of Emperor, or appointed by the previous Emperor. All lower government positions function much like a typical United States style Democratic Republic system, except that their word can be overruled by the Emperor. The Emperor is seen as no more than an administrator with much power, however.


Military Functions

The Military is divided into 6 branches - the Dominion Army, Navy, Seaborne Infantry (analogous to the USMC), Airforce, Strategic Missle Control, and the Coastal Defense Reserve. The total number of active military personel in the Candrian Empire numbers no more than 600,000 individuals, and at full strength over 19,300,000; however it recieves between 27 and 30 trillion USD in government funding. This means that budget per soldier at full strength would be close to $1,400,000, thusly they are one of the best trained and well equiped forces in the world.----
