The Imperial Race

The Imperial Race is a very aggressive militaristic nation that has been known to fight wars on trivial causes. It is ruled by The Padishah Emperor of the Corrino Line who sits on the Golden Lion Throne. The Military is endless and very well trained. the Original Capital was Salusa Secundus but it was hit by a atomic strike and was made a barren inhospitable place. The Current Capital is Kaitan. This City is filled with monuments to House Corrino (the ruling members of the Empire). It resembles New York City.

The Imperial Race is an on off UN member. It joins and leaves because of its Distaste of the resolutions being past.


Founding and History

The Imperial Race is a nation that was born of blood. It was at first a nation that was ruled by an Emperor of the Hapsburg line allowing many advances in science and robotics. The Monarchy fell to a Prussian King and soon the nation was involved in a civil war. When the dust had settled The Prussians emerged Victorious and the Hapsburgs where eliminated. The first of many royal families killed. The Prussian Monarchy ruled for several centuries and witnesses the birth of Robotics this lead to the overthrow of the Human Government and the creation of a Robotic Regime controlled by a massive supercomputer in Kaitain. It was 10 centuries dominated by a robotic regime that used the populace as cattle. The Regime fell after a Uprising called the Butlerian Jihad. The Jihad ended after the battle of Corrin. The leader of the Resistance Faykan Butler declared himself Emperor and changed his last name to Corrino to have a bit of history to his name.

From then on the Corrinos ruled The Imperial Race and their lieutenants became nobles. they Built the Landsraad Council Chambers on the remains of the Super Computers and the Corrinos Set up an Imperial palace on Salusa Secundus their home province. They had one Commandment "thou salt not create a machine in the Likeness of Man" This lead to the destruction of many computers and lead to the training of Human Computers called Mentats.


Attack On Salusa Secundus

The Atomic Attack on Salusa Secundus was a attempt to seize power form the Corrinos 500 years after the battle of Corrin. This attack killed many but the Corrinos escaped. They managed to fight a war useing the newly formed Imperial Sardaukar and Atomic weapons this was when their reputation as warrior fanatics was formed. After a civil war that lasted 10 years costing a total of 10 million lives the Corrinos emerged victorious and The Capital was moved to Kaitan beause Salusa Secundus was a barren atomic wasteland. It became the training ground of the Imperial Saduakar and the most notorious Imperial Prision. The Name of the Offending House is unknown it was eraesed from history as a punishment for their crimes. The Imperial race began a time known as "The Great Purge"


The Great Purge

This was the period of 2 years after the third civil war in witch the Corrinos hunted down and killed many nobles attempting to over throw them. it is estimated that 30,000 people died. 100 were convicted of treason. The rest are the Families of the traitors. Not one drop of Traitorous blood is left in the Imperial race.


The Imperial Wars

The Imperial wars began with the bombing of Kaitan. This lead to the annihilation of the regime of General Song who planned the attack in one day. this lead to a war Royal Latveria and Nationalist -China- they demanded the release of prisoners of General Song. After a stern no they attacked and attempted to disarm The Imperial Race's atomic arsenal. This failed and led to a massive atomic strike. this lead to the Annihilation of The Doom Family (rulers of Royal latvera)


People

The People of the Imperial race are hard working people that follow orders without question and live in a Ultra Capitalistic State. they are free to rise and fall as the please. and that is about it. Service in the Military is considered an Honor. Especially in the Imperial Sardaukar. This is why many parents allow their newborns to be trained to become one of the "Imperial Elite"


Culture

The Culture also says it is the Emperor's Wish for us to become powerful. So they often excel at what they do and do it without Question. This is why the Merchants are some of the Best in the region.
