Avalon Protectorate

The NSC Military Authority of Avalon, commonly known as the Avalon Protectorate and less commonly as the Avalon Reichsprotektorat and rarely as the Black Guard Military Dictatorship of Avalon within Merdinan Black Guard circles, is a partially-occupied territory of the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth established on Gemini 20, Eon-U 5SB142 following the NSC invasion and occupation of the State of Avalon, a hyper-militaristic human nation which invaded several star systems to initiate enslavement or extermination campaigns against their native inhabitants.
The creation of the Avalon Protectorate is justified by the Avalonian government's willingness to commit crimes against sapientkind through enslaving or exterminating those it had conquered. Operation Black Day, the joint NSC Armed Forces-Black Guard invasion, saw the conquest of the state and its occupation. On Gemini 20, against the opposition of the NSC military and government Yarin Norsoutha, the Schattenfuhrer of the Order-State of Merdina and the Supreme Commander of the Merdinan Black Guard, established the Avalon Reichsprotektorat and the formation of the Avalonian Black Guard, with Oberfuhrer Artoria Federdrache as its military governor, essentially making her its Oberkommandant and in turn its military dictator; command of some present NSC military units (especially those aligned with the Merdinan Black Guard) within established Avalonian space were eventually put under her command.
Schattenfuhrer Yarin had made possible Oberfuhrer Artoria, then one of several Avalonians who migrated to Novaya IV, her dream of returning to Avalon as its dictator; however, after the creation of the Reichsprotektorat, he did not expect her to not answer to him and him alone as she is not motivated ideologically by the Reformed Merdinan System (in actuality similar to the dreaded Burgundian System) and only out of her thinking highly of its Anglo-Saxon origins.
The Avalon Protectorate is an autonomous Novayan-administered entity which is de jure part of the greater NSC. While authority is shared between the NSC Armed Forces and the recently-created Avalonian Black Guard, full control is invested in the latter's leader; and despite being seen as a military dictatorship it functions as Oberfuhrer Artoria's personal fief, which is composed of various fiefs (planetary, continental, regional and provincial), and some of them (Avalon III, Avalon IV and their moons, and a few regional, provincial and local fiefs on those worlds) belong to her. Both NSC and Black Guard military officers who served under and answered to her ran these fiefs.
