The Continental Empire of Malatose is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, cynical population of 7.193 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Book Publishing and Information Technology.
Graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal then most battlefields, the nation's gigantic air force is both respected and feared, and the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malatose's national animal is the Hawk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Credit.

HISTORY:
The Nation of Malatose was founded in the year 2003, during The Great Age of Formation. During these years, the nation developed both politically and economically. However, this would all come to an end. Five months later, the nation was thrown into a massive civil war. This war, mostly started by the Socialist, raged for months, until finally the Socialist won. In the wake of the Socialist victory, hundreds lay dead and thousands injured. Hundreds were also exiled and the ones that weren't were quickly executed.
The years following; however, were prosperous for Malatose. The economy continued to rise, the military grew both in numbers and in technology. But this would all come to an end with the Socialist Government tightening it's grip on the people. Hundreds of corporations were nationalized and civilians were under constant fear of being arrested by the secret police. This would continue for years, until one man decided to take a stand.
Galius Falucia, a former political officer with Imperialistic views, was exiled during the rise of the Socialist Government. During this time, he continued to plot and plan for the freedom of his people. To do this, he began to organize various organizations, the largest one being called "The Order for a free Malatose". This group mostly consisted of former Military Officers and Soldiers who had defected.
With the support of the Military and Citizens worldwide, The Socialist Government was finally overthrown in a violent two in a half year civil year. In its place, The Continental Empire of Malatose was formed, with Galius Falucia proclaiming himself Emperor. This would be an Empire that would rule for generations, giving hundreds safety and a secure society.
Geography:
The Continental Empire of Malatose has an extremely varied geography. The land is covered in mountains, grasslands, forests and a few deserts. The Continental Empire of Malatose is divided into 8 sectors. Each sector being ruled by the local Moff Governor and having two seats in the Imperial Senate.
Lusankya:

]
Lusankya is the capital of the Empire, and the seat of Imperial Power. The Capital is basically one big city, covered in sprawling skyscrapers, huge spiraling highways and the huge structures of the various Imperial Ministries. However, aside from the massive city aspect, the city has a number of natural landscapes, such as the Mejori Twin Mountain peaks. The Capital also contains a large number of suburban areas. Because of the sheer size of the city, the city serves as a major tourist spot. The many tourist locations include: The Imperial Musuem, Threatre of Arts, University of Lusankya, and the Skydome Botanical Gardens.
Rialtor
Rialtor, the 2nd largest city in Malatose, is the oldest city in Malatose. Build around a Classical European/21st Century Style, the city is one of the most unique in Malatose. The area was first settled during the early 1880s, when a group of Malatosian Citizens migrated to the area. The years following saw a massive surge of technology in this area of the country, which spread to other areas. However, this would all come to an end with the rise of the Communist Government. Hundreds were killed, if not sent to death camps, which saw a huge decline in technology. It was during this time that Galius Falucia was born. Because Galius Falucia was born in Rialtor, it is sometimes called the Heart of the Continental Empire. In the middle of the city, the massive Imperial Tower of Victory was constructed. It serves as a monument to all those who suffered during the Communist Regime.
Rigar
Wild grasslands and old mountain ranges dominated the surface of the 3rd largest sector in Malatose. Rigar is home to more than eight species of plants and an even larger amount of wildflowers. Its flora also include a massive variety of spices, herbs, and grains. Rigar also containts thousands of lakes and connecting waterways. Rigar serves as a major tourist spot for both citizens and Government officials.
Imperialization and State Control:
With the rise of the Empire of Malatose, all the institutions of the old Socialist Government found themselves either dismantled or changed beyond recognition. The Senate became the Imperial Senate. The Soviat Army became the Imperial Army, and the Soviet Navy became the Imperial Navy and the four decrepit intelligence agencies of the Socialist Government were merged into Imperial Intelligence. The Palace of the People was rebuilt and expanded, becoming the Imperial Palace, eclipsing all other buildings in Lusankya. The Peoples Commission for Communism was renamed the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order (COMPNOR).
COMPNOR
The main organ of the Imperial Government, during the era of Imperialization, was the COMPNOR or Commission for the Preservation of the New Order. COMPNOR, which replaced the People's Commission for the Protection of Communism, or COMPOR, originated as a popular ideological organization, and the 1st Imperial Secretary of the New Order quickly acted to draw it into his sphere of influence—within months of the Declaration of the New Order, the cultural and youth groups had been grafted onto the pre-existing framework.
Under the leadership of Galius Falucia, COMPNOR gained a powerful hold over the Empire, and its organs insinuated themselves into every corner of society. Imperial citizens were encouraged to join COMPNOR. Members were given exclusive access to breaking news, a free subscription to Iron Will and a special welcome message from the Head of State himself..
The New Order, which was the underlying ideology of the Galactic Empire was strongly supported by COMPNOR. It criticized the pereived decadence and weakness of the former communist government, and advocated an authoritarian and militaristic social and political culture.
COMPNOR was organized into various divisions. The Sub-Adult Group is COMPNOR's youth organization, and was made up of enthusiastic youths who firmly believed the New Order was the best regime for the Galaxy and devoted their lives to upholding and respecting it.
The Coalition for Progress was an information-gatherers agency of the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order. It began as a weak cultural organization, understaffed and underwhelming, but developed into a massive information-gathering agency with monitors throughout the country It examined massive amounts of data, the majority of which was mundane, for indications of dissident or anti-government activity, and forwarded summaries to the more-important Imperial Security Bureau.
Imperial Security Bureau
The Imperial Security Bureau (ISB) was created to heighten the Emperor's knowledge of political and militaristic events within his Empire. The Bureau is staffed soley by those loyal to the New Order. Primarily, the ISB is responsible for the internal security of the Empire. Much of the ISB’s functionality however, arises from experienced counter-intelligence agents who attempt to insure that their intelligence is as good, or better than that of the ISB’s rival agency, Imperial Intelligence. The ISB serves more of a enforcement function than does the Ubiqtorate in Intelligence, having a more public presence. Its operatives, especially in Surveillance, will often identify themselves as members of ISB, the intimidation value being worth the loss of secrecy.
ISB Officers monitor and maintain the loyalty of Imperial citizens, in addition to assuring that no hostile intelligence agencies infiltrate the Empire. The ISB also performs duties similar to a police force. The difference to a police force is, however, that the ISB focuses its primary attentions on political rather than civil matters. In short, the ISB upholds Imperial Law within the Empire; it is the Empire's Law Enforcement Agency.
The ISB Central Office is a immense complex located in Imperial City, Lusankya that handles all of the communications and coordination tasks for the entirety of the ISB. The Commission of Operations transmits assignments through the Central Office directly to the Province Offices. The ISB’s branches include: Surveillance, Investigations, Internal Affairs, Interrogation, Re-Education, and Enforcement. All communication between sector offices and otherwise is held directly through the Central Office.
The Imperial Security Bureau is organized into six different organizations.
Surveillance, the largest branch of ISB, is commonly a department of operatives employed to search for potentially rebellious activity. What they find, if substantial enough, is turned over to Investigations.
Internal Affairs concerns itself with the oversight of matters within the Empire, putting the loyalty of all under close inspection and, ensuring the direct application of Imperial Law within the Empire's own ranks. Besides the investigative staff, every Imperial Garrison, ship and Command has a public Internal Affairs officer. These ISB Officers are available to hear all information ranging from personnel complaints, to rumors of ill-loyalty among co-workers.
Interrogation comes into play after a suspect is apprehended, typically by Investigations, and is charged with extracting any data that the suspect has been reluctant to willingly divulge. The information uncovered is sent back to Investigations.
Re-Education concerns itself with those members of the State who have been convicted of a crime by Internal Affairs. Those convicted are sent to Re-Education and are forcibly retrained and re-indoctrinated, then returned to a post of lower importance... if they pass.
Enforcement provides the specialized peace-keeping talent for the ISB, occasionally for Internal Affairs, but most often they lend their expertise to Investigations. Gathering the more covert operations experts within the branch of Enforcement, coupled with the ability to call upon the strong arm tactics of the standard Imperial Military, the ISB has sufficient brawn and firepower to back its intricate information and intelligence agencies.
Usually unlike the other branches of the ISB, enforcement concerns itself with specialized, and often independent, operatives contracted to achieve ends endorsed by the ISB. These contracted operatives are put to use by many of the different departments, but there is some tension caused by those employed who are not COMPNOR members
Government and Politcs:
The Continental Empire of Malatose is ruled with absolute power by 1st Imperial Secretary Galius Falucia, with President Sate Thomas as President (the Head of Government) and Williane Dawn as Military Executor. The Congress of People's Deputies still exist but its was changed to the the Imperial Senate. The Imperial Senate has little power, only being able to pass meager laws. The real power is in the hands of the Moffs, like who were eventually granted direct control of their regions. The title of Moff Governor was established during the founding of the Empire. Each Moff is armed a broad mandate to monitor province government, and a force of soldiers that might be sufficient to secure their residence, maintain control in the surrounding streets, and provide protection to a few administrative personnel on detached duty. Moffs are also expected to maintain order, prevent corruption and enforce the law.
The Continental Empire of Malatose is actually more decentralized than the Soviet Communist Republics of Malatose. Provinces were grouped in Sectors. These were controlled by the Moffs who exercised power. This was in contrast to the structure of the Continental Empire of Malatose, which placed Political Commisars directly from the capital in charge of every region.
Head of State
The First Imperial Secretary of the New Order is the head of state of the Empire and the overall Supreme Ruler. Its power and authority were mainly derived from those of the Premier and the additional rights bestowed upon that office by the Imperial Senate. The Imperial Secretary has the power to make any desicision he sees fit. Although the Premier serves as Head of Government, The First Secretary is still effectively The Head of State and Government.
Head of Government
The President is the office in the Empire responsible for maintaining the day-to-day operations of the Empire and the Bureaucracy. It is the highest rank besides First Imperial Secretary and Executor. The President overseas the myriad departments, bureaus and offices, and serves as the First Secretary of the New Order chief lieutenant and personal deputy. He acts as an intermediary for the First Secretary. If the First Secretary were to die, it would be the President who takes control of the Empire, until the Imperial Senate chose a new Secretary.
Legislative branch
The Imperial Senate was established in just days after the Empire was founded. Besides the name, its organization had the same organization as its orebear, the Council of People's Deputies. The Imperial Senate holds only legislative power (and even with much of that held by the Senate now in the hands of the 1st Secretary and Moff Governors). The day-to-day head of the Senate was no longer the Vice Chair, but the President.
The Senate was, at least in theory, responsible for choosing a new 1st Imperial Secretary upon the death or abdication of the current holder of the throne.
Civilian Government
The title of Moff Governor was established during the founding of the Empire. Each Moff is armed a broad mandate to monitor province government, and a force of soldiers that might be sufficient to secure their residence, maintain control in the surrounding streets, and provide protection to a few administrative personnel on detached duty. Moffs are also expected to maintain order, prevent corruption and enforce the law.
Command in Chief of the Imperial Armed Forces
Military Exectutor is the highest rank in Malatose (besides 1st Imperial Secretary, Moff and President), outranking all other military personnel. Executors are appointed by the Premier and answered directly to the Emperor, or his authorized executors, in all matters. However, although all exceptionally gifted officers, the Executors were not just front-line commanders; rather, they included technical specialists and theoreticians, enabling them to serve as a leadership cadre for the whole military - and indeed the whole Empire. Executors are visually distinguished from other officers in the Imperial armed forces by their gleaming white uniform, sometimes worn with bullion epaulettes and rank insignia, sometimes without any badge of rank. Military Executor, being the effective head of the Imperial Armed Forces, have a wide range of duties.

Economy:
Malatose has a very complex and diverse economy. Following the Civil War, Malatose started a process of stabilization and expansion of the economy. While dramatic increases in state control and centralization of economic procedures, it had little effect on the Economy. This was evident with the massive rise of the GDP and rise of the Imperial Currency. In order to increase Imperial Control on the economy, the Imperial Government established the Imperial Industry and Commerce Council.
The Imperial Industry and Commerce Council is composed of the presidents or chief executive officers of the Imperial nationalized corporations and groups, the Imperial Industry and Commerce Council is an organization of businesses designed to improve, secure, and further Imperial corporate interests in the economy. The Council is overseen by the Imperial Ministries of Diplomacy and Finance, both of which serve as liaisons to the Council and Empire, and are dedicated to improving the holdings of each.
Responsabilites of this Council include Purpose, Expectations, Dispensations and the Bylaws that effect this elite group. Although the Imperial Industry and Commerce Council manage the four major nationlized military corporations of the Empire, there are thousands of privatized companies, which supply both civilian and military goods.

Nationalized Imperial Corporations:
Vektor Corp
The main military gun manufacturer for the Empire, Vektor Industries constructs such formidable weapons such as the Vektor G-20 assault Rifle. Vektor Corp has won many high profile military contracts that built its reputation.
Rendili Ship Yards
Ranked as one of the high ranking companies on the Imperial Industry and Commerce Council, Rendili Ship Yards plays a important role in Malatose. Rendili Ship Yards is known for the construction of the newly popular ships such as the Leviathon-class SuperCarrier and Daedalus-class Nuclear Guided-Missile Cruiser, which bristles with a plethora of weaponry making the Empire capable of defending itself against outside invaders.
Malatosian Imperial Jet Works
One of the veteran companies of the council, Malatosian Imperial Skyworks has won notable contracts as the producer of every aircraft in the Imperial Airforces inventory such as the MF-1 Vektor and MB-1 Ghost Strategic Stealth Bomber. While Malatosian Imperial Skyworks hasn’t won a contract in awhile, the company still continues to develop new technology that continues to intrigue Imperial Military strategists.
Rothana Heavy Engineering
Rothana Heavy Engineering is responsible for the development and Production of the Drakon Multi-Launch Rocket System, Panzerhaubitze-PZH 155mm Self-Propelled Artillery System, Heinkel Infantry Fighting Vehicle, and Tsar Surface-to-Surface Missle.
Although the Imperial Industry and Commerce Council manage the four major nationlized military corporations of the Empire, there are thousands of privatized companies, which supply both civilian and military goods.
Communications:
The Continental Empire of Malatose maintains one of the world's largest communication networks. This includes Cell Phone, Cable TV, satellite, radio and internet. This massisve influx of communications technology comes thanks to the Imperial Government's "Technological Leap Forward", which saw the Imperial Government invest heavily in the communications Industry.
Television:
The Imperial Television Network is a complex system to say the least. Cable Television is provided by Rothola Cable Systems, while Satellite TV is provided by Holonet Satellite Systems. The systems currently host over three-hundred channels, which is everything from Family Programming to news around the world. Unlike other institutions of the Continental Empire, The Imperial Government rarely exercised control over Television networks. This is most evident in Imperial Holovision Vision or IHV. Imperial Holovision staunchly maintained a pro-Imperial, pro-business, pro-individualist stance, without supporting government protection and supervision of rights. Its reporting style is detailed, sophisticated, and for the most part accurate. Rather than distort the Empire's more questionable policies, it simply ignored them altogether, ensuring that the population at large never even heard about the New Order's opression. Most channels are broadcast in the nations native language of Malatosian; however, others are broadcast in both English and Malatosian Another. It is estimated that over 95% of the population has access to Cable and Satellite TV.
Internet:
Just like Imperial Television, Imperial Internet, provided by Veriops, is considered one of the worlds most advanced systems. Malatose has currently replaced the standard cable system, and has replaced it with hundreds of miles of Fiber Optic Cables. This allows the normal everyday person to access the internet at over 100Mbit/s. For those who don't have internet access available to them, there are thousands of local internet cafes, where a person can use the internet free of charge. It is estimated that 90% of the Malatosian Population has access to the internet.
Wireless Communications:
The Empire of Malatose current communications network is operated by three companies. These three Companies, provide 7.186 billion citzens with cell phones. It is estimated that over two million Wireless Signal structures exist; however, the government, along with the three major providers refuse to confirm these claims. The current cost of maintaining such a network has reached up to four Trillion Credits; however major cost are split by the companies. Along with Cell Phones, these companies also provide citzens with Wi-fi connections, which can be used forlaptops and PDA devices.
Transportation:
The Imperial Transportation Authority is the regional transportation planning and public transportation operating agency for the Empire of Malatose. The agency develops and oversees transportation plans, policies, funding programs, and both short-term and long-range solutions that address the County's increasing mobility, accessibility and environmental needs. The Imperial Transportation Authority currently employs over 120,000 people.
Additionally, the authority partially funds sixteen municipal bus operators and a wide array of transportation projects including bikeways and pedestrian facilities, local roads and highway improvements, goods movement, Freeway Service Patrol and freeway call boxes within the Empire.
Buses and Rail Service:
The Imperial Transportation Authority operates a fleet of over ten-thousand buses. Buses are designed to run a carefully timed schedule. which allows citizens to make to their destinations quickly. It is estimated that over a million people a day board the local bus services. Also, the Imperial Transportation Authority operates various surface rail services around the nation. The Empire of Malatose is currently in the process of upgraded all their major rail networks to embrace Maglev systems. Currently, 90% of the current rail services have been upgraded.
Imperial Transportation Authority also manages over one-hundred local Subway systems. Thes subway systems were designed as alternatives to those who don't want to ride the local surface rail services.
Highway System:
The highway systems of Malatose are complex to say the least. Most highways are massive 10 lane systems, which connect all the Imperial Sectors together. These massive systems were constructed by the Imperial Transportation Authority on orders from the 1st Secretary of the New Order himself. Imperial Highways have no general speed limit (though about 50% of the total length is subject to local and/or conditional limits), but the "recommended speed" is 90 mph.
In order to keep crime low and enforce the law, the Impperial Security Bureau created the Imperial Highway Security Bureau. The Highway is patrolled by unmarked police cars and motorcycles equipped with video cameras; this allows the enforcement of laws.
Air Transportation:
Air Travel in Malatose is provided by three major carriers. Imperial Air Transportation, Eagle Transportation and Delta Air Transportation. The total number of passenger aircraft combined is over 56,000 and ridership per year is estimated at 50 million. Most of the aircraft operate from the four major airports in the country, and from the local smaller airports also.
Society
The culture in Malatose is ascetic, minimalist, pro-Imperial, pro-business, pro-individualist and Militaristic. These aesthetics are encouraged throughout the nation by the Coalition for Progress, an arm of COMPNOR. The Imperial Government is not particularly brutal in the suppression of artistic culture, as it is primarily interested in military and political dominance. However, pressures from the New Order have left their mark on the art of the Imperial period.
Imperial Intelligence
Imperial Intelligence, sometimes abbreviated Imperial Intel, is the elite intelligence agency of the Empire of Malatose. It is the rival to the larger Imperial Security Bureau. Shortly after the Declaration of the New Order, Michael Whittman initiated a massive overhaul of the governments intelligence apparatus (presumably with the blessing and help of Director of Intelligence Ysanne Isard ). The Governments four decrepit intelligence agencies of the Socialist Government were amalgamated into the new Imperial Intelligence and placed under the authority of Isard. The Imperial Senate authority to interfere in and oversee intelligence affairs was also removed.
The mission of Imperial Intelligence is to support the 1st Secretary of the New Order, Imperial High Command, and all Imperial officials who make and execute Imperial policy by:
- Providing accurate, comprehensive, and timely foreign intelligence on all security topics.
- Conducting counterintelligence activities, special activities, and other functions related to foreign intelligence and galactic security, as directed by the Emperor.
- Providing advisory to all branches of the Empire on foreign intelligence matters.
-- To accomplish its mission, Imperial Intelligence engages in research, development, and deployment of high-leverage technology for intelligence purposes. As a separate branch, Imperial Intelligence serves as an independent source of analysis on topics of concern and also works closely with the other organizations in the Imperial Security Council to ensure that the intelligence consumer - whether a Moff or battlefield commander - receives the best intelligence possible.
As changing realities have re-ordered the Imperial security agenda, Imperial Intelligence has met these new challenges by: Creating special, multidisciplinary centers to address such high-priority issues such as nonproliferation, counter-terrorism, counterintelligence, organized crime and narcotics trafficking, environment, and arms control intelligence.
Forging stronger partnerships between the several intelligence collection disciplines and all-source analysis.
Taking an active part in Intelligence Community analytical efforts and producing all-source analysis on the full range of topics that affect galactic security.
Contributing to the effectiveness of the overall Intelligence Community by managing services of common concern in imagery analysis and open-source collection and participating in partnerships with other intelligence agencies in the areas of research and development and technical collection.
Command System
Unlike the Imperial Security Bureau, Imperial Intel personnel were not organized according to a military-style system of ranks. Rather, they were assigned on a case-by-case basis. They were formally addressed as "Agent (Name)", in lieu of a rank.
The Director of Imperial Intelligence:
The Director of Imperial Intelligence is the representative and chief of staff for the Ubiqtorate, and Bureau Chiefs within Imperial Intelligence. The Director is responsible for establishing and managing the Empire's methods and support systems for acquiring, sorting, and analysing information and threats to the Empire. Operations requiring the waging of unconventional warfare or the use of deniable assets will commonly come under the hand of the Director as well. While a civilian, the Director of Imperial Intelligence is afforded a great range of movement within military matters, advising as available. Ultimately, the Director is responsible for the administration and execution of all affairs within and undertaken by Imperial Intelligence, and reports only to the Emperor. Ysanne Isard's office is located in the Imperial Palace
The Deputy Director of Imperial Intelligence:
The Deputy Director of Imperial Intelligence is the Executive Officer Imperial Intelligence. The Deputy Director is responsible for managing personnel and resource allocations within the various Bureaus and Branches. The Deputy Director will also perform tasks as required by the Director of Imperial Intelligence, and will succeed the Director of Imperial Intelligence.
Bureau Chiefs of Imperial Intelligence:
The Bureau Chief is the Chief of all personnel and management in their assigned Bureau. The Bureau Chief will supervise all Operations and Missions the Bureau is assigned, and the Bureau Chief will present all results to the Ubiqtorate.
Ubiqtorate:
The Ubiqtorate oversees all of the activities of Imperial Intelligence at the highest levels. The Ubiqtorate formulates strategies for the bureaus of Imperial Intelligence and presents the bureaus with a set of goals and very broad grand strategic considerations and asks them to plan an effective strategy. With the exception of adjustments, members of the Ubiqtorate never have any communication with personnel at a lower level. They would certainly never deal with an individual field agent.
Bureau of Analysis (Analysis)
This bureau handles gargantuan amounts of data from tens of millions of sources. In addition to looking for enemy activity, it looks for patterns or trends in social data, which might be useful to the agents over in Intelligence. Analysis also handles, examines and copies useful technologies, even developing a few of their own.
Bureau of Operations (Operations)
Of all the bureaus in Imperial Intelligence, this is the one which is called the "Bureau"; no one in Imperial Intelligence for more than a few days would call it anything else. Operating in the strictest secrecy, the Bureau conducts all manners of clandestine and special operations and information gathering for Imperial Intelligence.
Adjustments:
Adjustments is the most elite branch of Imperial Intelligence, with the exception for the Ubiqtorate, which directly controlled Adjustments. Adjustment agents were called in when the Ubiqtorate felt that a critical situation had slipped from the control of Imperial Intelligence, and that the situation was beyond the normal capabilities of the bureaus, yet was not completely hopeless in resolving. Agents of Adjustments would receive orders directly and in person from the Ubiqtorate. Ubiqtorate would inform Adjustments what the problem was, what resources were available to find a solution to the problem, and the Adjustments team would then solve the situation. No record of their orders was ever kept and no mission files existed within the Plexis for these agents.
The Imperial Armed Forces:
The Imperial military is the military arm of the Empire of Malatose. It is responsible for carrying out military operations throughout the world, as well as maintaining order in colonies, and protectorates. Since, the Empire's New Order was based on fear and force, the Imperial military formed a very important part of the Imperial government. The normal term of service in the Imperial Armed Forces is two years; however, a soldier can request to serve more time.
Grand Imperial Army
The Imperial Army is the largest branch of the Imperial Armed Forces and has primary responsibility for land-based military operations. It currently has 179,242,000 Active Personnel. The modern Imperial Army has its roots in the Free Continental Army which was formed to fight against the Communist Regime of Malatose. the Imperial Army considers itself to be an evolution of the Free Continental Army, and thus dates its inception from the origins of the Free Continental Army.
The Imperial Army is divided into various divisions that perform each job.
- Motorized rifle troops - most numerous branch of service, that constitutes the basis of ground forces and the nucleus of their battle formations. They are equipped with powerful armament for destruction of ground-based and aerial targets, missile complexes, tanks, artillery and mortars, anti-tank guided missiles, antiaircraft missile systems and installations, effective means of reconnaissance and control.
- Tank troops - main impact force of ground forces and the powerful means of armed struggle, intended for the solution of the most important problems in different forms of war shooting.
- Artillery and Rocket Forces - main firepower and the most important operational means in the solution of combat problems by the crushing defeat of groupings of enemy.
- Army aviation: intended for the direct support of the Ground Forces,
The Imperial Navy is the branch of the Imperial armed forces responsible for conducting naval operations. Its stated mission is "to maintain, train and equip combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression and maintaining freedom of the seas. The Imperial Navy currently has 4,855 Surface Vessels, 400 Nuclear Attack/Guided Missile Submarines, and 89 Ballistic Submarines in Service. Active Personnel is at 5,128,750.
The Imperial Navy maintains a sizeable presence in the world. Its ability to project force onto the littoral regions of the world, engage in forward areas during peacetime, and rapidly respond to regional crises makes it an active player in Imperial Foreign Policy.
The most senior naval officer is the Grand Admiral of the Navy, who is a four-star admiral. At the same time, the Imperial Naval Grand Admiral is one of the Officers who sit at the Office of the Executor, which is the largest deliberatory body of the armed forces. The Grand Admiral is responsible for organizing, recruiting, training, and equipping the Navy so that it is ready for operation under the command of the Unified Combatant Commanders.
Imperial Airforce
The Imperial Airfroce is the aerospace branch of the Imperial Armed Forces. The Imperial Airforce currently has 14,200,000 Personnel on Active Duty and 35,650 Aircraft. According to the Imperial Security Act of which created the Air Force, "In general the Imperial Air Force shall include aviation forces both combat and service not otherwise assigned. It shall be organized, trained, and equipped primarily for prompt and sustained offensive and defensive air operations. The Air Force shall be responsible for the preparation of the air forces necessary for the effective prosecution of war except as otherwise assigned and, in accordance with integrated joint mobilization plans, for the expansion of the peacetime components of the Air Force to meet the needs of war."
The stated mission of the Imperial Airforce is to "deliver sovereign options for the defense of the Continental Empire of Malatose and its global interests — to fly and fight in Air, Space, and Cyberspace".
Imperial Space Force
The Space Force Mission is to defend the Continental Empire of Malatose through the control and exploitation of space. Space Command makes space reliable to the warfighter (i.e. forces personnel) by continuously improving the command's ability to provide and support combat forces — assuring their access to space. In addition, the command's ICBM forces deter any adversary contemplating the use of weapons of mass destruction.
- Space forces support involves launching satellites and other high-value payloads into space using a variety of expendable launch vehicles and operating those satellites once in the medium of space.
- Space control ensures friendly use of space through the conduct of counterspace operations encompassing surveillance, negation, and protection.
- Force enhancement provides weather, communications, intelligence, missile warning, and navigation. Force enhancement is support to the warfighter.
Force application involves maintaining and operating a rapid response.
Imperial Space Forces operates and supports the Imperial Global Positioning System, Defense Satellite Communications Systems Phase II and III, Defense Meteorological Support Program, Defense Support Program, DKF III and IV communications and Fleet Satellite Communications System UHF follow-on and IMPSTAR satellites. Imperial Space Force operates all launch vehicles. This includes all of the nation's primary boosters from the Eastern and Western ranges and range support for the Imperial Space Program. ISP also operates the nation's primary source of continuous, real-time solar flare warnings. The command also operates a worldwide network of satellite tracking stations to provide communications links to satellites — a system called the Imperial Satellite Control Network.
Ground-based radars used primarily for ballistic missile warning include the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System, S-600 Tactical ICBM Detection System. The S.H.I.E.L.D Optical Tracking Identification Facility, Ground-based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance System, Passive Space Surveillance System, phased-array and mechanical radars provide primary space surveillance coverage.
The ICBM force (apart from the SLBMs operated by the Imperial Navy) consists of the R-45M Intercontinental Ballistic Missile that provide the critical component of Malatose's on-alert strategic forces. More than 500 ICBMs are currently on alert in reinforced concrete launch facilities.
CompForce
CompForce are the elite shock troops of the Empire, fanatically loyal and answerable directly to the 1st Secretary of the New Order and is an entirely different branch from the Army. In addition to their military role as elite troops, CompForce Troops constituted an important part of the New Order. Compforce training was accompanied by thorough indoctrination to Imperial ideology, above and beyond what the normal military was exposed to, and Compforce were closely associated with the Government itself.
Because CompForce is apart of COMPNOR, they have their own command structure, ranking system, and support facilities. A company commander could give command to any regular officer over any given squad or platoon. Their organizational manners were similar to those of the Imperial Army. They were, however, loyal only to the Emperor, and only followed orders from Imperial Army and Navy personnel at their discretion.
The basic unit of organization was the individual trooper. Each trooper is assigned a number for tactical purposes and to reinforce the Imperial ethic of uniformity. Troopers were organized into squads, platoons, companies, battalions, regiments and legions.
CompForce Troops go through ferocious training as a unit, which provides strong unit cohesion on the battlefield as well as a willingness to fight on despite heavy casualties. CompForce troops also provide security for the 1st Secretary of the New Order, the Capital and other important Government officials.
