History
Under the USSR
From 1985 to 1990, Void Templar was a client state of the Soviet Union. A freedom fighter group known as the VTLF ( Void Templar Liberation Force) staged an uprising in the capital city, destroying the occupying forces communication and their ability to import military supplies. Over the next 6 months, support for the VTLF grew and the numbers of the occupying force were whittled down in a series of uprising and guerrilla attacks.
After the Uprising
After the uprising, the leader of the VTLF, Maximillion Tziari, was crowned Emperor of the new nation. From there, the new Imperial Legions conquered many of the surrounding nations, such as the Kidnapping Slug People and Divine Varandia. It stopped its policy of uber-aggression after 30 years and settled down to console its territory and economy.
The 1st Varius War
The 1st Varius War began when the nation of Boratnia stole secret military plans on new weaponry from Void Templar, and blamed it on Ih8uwannakillu. Void Templar retaliated by destroying a Ih8uwannakilluan Transport Freighter. Ih8uwannakillu retaliated by attacking the port of Dark Window. Void Templar attacked the Ih8uwannakilluan city of Panrea.
Rebellions
Throughout the years, a number of rebellions have been staged and put down with ruthless efficiency, especially under the reign of the Emperor Rafzekael Tziari the 13th. Most have been week long rebellions, ergo the Bigtopian rebellion of 2010, but a few have lasted for years, like the current Socialist Movement. The small island off the coast of Void Templar has been turned into no-mans land, with a huge trench dug across either side and bombs and artillery falling all the time. The once beautiful jungle of the island has been burnt and radiated, leaving only faint, luminous ashes.
