Overthrough Empire (2036-2039)

The Overthrough Empire, known simply as "The Empire", or abbreviated "OE", is a devious and warmongering nation that has left its mark globally upon planet Earth since its culmination in 2021. It is disputed whether the nation is a fascist or communist state; most of its activity cause tendencies to currently lean more to communism out of the two, but the government defines itself as being fascist.
==Etymology==
The name for the "Overthrough Empire" has a rather cut and dry origin. The leader and creator of the movement, known solely as "The Overlord", defined the nation under such a title after his successful coup against the French government.
==History==
===Annexation of Netherlands (2036)===
After years of grueling war and city bombing, the Netherlands could hold out against the Overthroughians no longer, and thus were forced into surrender during an unmarked month in the year 2036. The Overthrough Empire immediately mobilizes garrisons into the region, destroying all remnants of the government, military, and any known resistance by the end of the year.
=== Escalation (2036-2038) ===
With the destruction of France, Belgium, and Netherlands, as well as the invasions of every other neighbor, European nations had finally had enough of the new terrifying regime in Europe, and conglomerated to finally do something about it.
Shortly after the fall of the Netherlands: Austria, Denmark, and Germany engage in declared war against the tyrannic government, marking the start of the soon-to-come Third World War- at this time only known as "The Liberation War".
With such a notion to finally cleanse Europe of this anarchy, many nations felt compelled to add some of their funding and manpower into the United Nations' most recently created "Alliance Army", quickly bolstering its funding and strength for the quickly escalating conflict.
As the war drags on, more and more nations join in to the battle: Canada with volunteers, and Czechia and Hungary in 2037, and Poland and Slovakia in 2038, with volunteers from Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Greenland, Montenegro, Norway, Serbia, Slovenia, and Sweden.
=== World War 3 (2039) ===
The treacherous march of the Overthroughian Armed Forces had still yet to be hindered by the attempts of neighboring nations. With such an issue pressing, the war finally went global with the entrance of Italy, Greece, and the United States into the war, marking its global value, as heavily bolded by the United States.
==Geography, climate, and environment==
===Location and borders===
The Overthrough Empire, as of this time period: 2039, makes up mainland France, Andorra, Belgium, and Netherlands, Monaco, half of Spain, and parts of Italy, Britain, and Germany. It shares borders with a struggling Germany, a panicked Italy, a war-torn Spain, a bold United Kingdom, and a heavily defended Switzerland.
===Geology, topography and hydrography===
Metropolitan Overthrough Empire has a wide variety of topographical sets and natural landscapes. Large parts of the current territory of France were raised during several tectonic episodes like the Hercynian uplift in the Paleozoic Era, during which the Armorican Massif, the Massif Central, the Morvan, the Vosges and Ardennes ranges and the island of Corsica were formed. These massifs delineate several sedimentary basins such as the Aquitaine basin in the southwest and the Paris basin in the north, the latter including several areas of particularly fertile ground such as the silt beds of Beauce and Brie. Various routes of natural passage, such as the Rhône valley, allow easy communications. The Alpine, Pyrenean and Jura mountains are much younger and have less eroded forms. At 15,782 feet (4,810.45 m) above sea level, Mont Blanc, located in the Alps on the French and Italian border, is the highest point in Western Europe. Although 60% of municipalities are classified as having seismic risks, these risks remain moderate.
The coastlines offer contrasting landscapes: mountain ranges along the French Riviera, coastal cliffs such as the Côte d'Albâtre, and wide sandy plains in the Languedoc. Corsica lies off the Mediterranean coast. The Overthrough Empire has an extensive river system consisting of the four major rivers Seine, the Loire, the Garonne, the Rhône and their tributaries, whose combined catchment includes over 62% of the metropolitan territory. The Rhône divides the Massif Central from the Alps and flows into the Mediterranean Sea at the Camargue. The Garonne meets the Dordogne just after Bordeaux, forming the Gironde estuary, the largest estuary in Western Europe which after approximately 62 miles (100 km) empties into the Atlantic Ocean. Other water courses drain towards the Meuse and Rhine along the north-eastern borders. France has 4.2×106 square miles (11 mil sq km) of marine waters within three oceans under its jurisdiction, of which 97% are overseas.
===Climate===
The Overthrough Empire metropolitan territory is relatively large, so the climate is not uniform, giving rise to the following climate nuances:
• The hot-summer mediterranean climate (Csa) is found along the Gulf of Lion. Summers are hot and dry, while winters are mild and wet. Cities affected by this climate: Arles, Avignon, Fréjus, Hyères, Marseille, Menton, Montpellier, Nice, Perpignan, Toulon.

===Administrative divisions===
The Overthrough Empire has a lack of any type of autonomous regions within its territories, the government being solely controlled directly by The Overlord. 
==Demographics==
===Population===
The population of the Overthrough Empire has yet to be calculated, but a rough estimate of 110 million citizens has been plastered over the nation for the time being.
===Language===
The Overthrough Empire, being that it originates from the French mainland, relies on two languages for communication. English is the more prioritized and official language of the state; being mandated for usage by the government for all concerns regarding anything about law or anything else federal. French, of course, is also an official language, and is left more to the local populace as a proper method of communication, but is more looked down upon at the higher levels of government. Every other language has been officially banned in being used in any of the territories of The Empire.
===Religion===
The Overthrough Empire, being a fascist state, has also outlawed the practice of any pre-existing religions. Instead, a state mandated religion known as 'OLordism'; guess what the religion is about, is spread amongst the population, replacing most religious locations and practices.
===Health===
The Overthroughians have been reported to be having a slow decline in hygiene and health since the rugged takeover of the nation. With pollution slowly increasing to drastic levels, and an absence of a healthcare system, the populace of the Overthrough Empire suffer terribly due to government negligence.
===Education===
The population of the Overthrough Empire currently has a fluctuation in decreasing and increasing intelligence. Since the civil war, many educational facilities have been decimated, and few have been reconstructed. The Empire has cleaned up its act, however, and has engaged in an educational plan that induces productivity in the knowledge of factory work, basic science, basic calculation, basic English, manufacturing, hard labor, and weapon training. Higher education, such as the striving for information that has nothing to do with any type of usable weapon, is nearly impossible to acquire beyond bribery or favortism.
==Politics==
===Government===
The government of the Overthrough Empire consists of a singular leader: The Overlord. The nation lacks any type of Judicial or Legislative branches of any kind, all and any decrees being sent in to or out from The Overlord himself. Beyond that, generals of the military are able to act as a sort of lesser governors of certain regions, being able to handle low-level laws and other needless concerns.
===Law===
The Overthrough Empire is extremely harsh with its legal system. It relies on an old fashion system of corporal and capital punishment per defined illegal actions, and works its magic through a heavily bolstered military-police force.
===Foreign relations===
The Overthrough Empire has absolutely no foreign relations with any other nation. Not being affiliated with any treaties, unions, nor alliances; and being absent from the United Nations, The Empire is exempt from upholding any sort of agreements with any nations.
The Overthrough Empire has a strong claim on all foreign French territories, which are all disputed as either being independent or apart of the recognized Free France.
===Military===
Main article: Military of the Overthrough Empire
The Overthrough Empire is known to have the most advanced military upon the planet, its technology bypassing all others that attempt to stand against it. It does suffer from disorganization, however, and a lack of competence within the ranks.
==Economics==
The Overthrough Empire relies on autarky for its economy, and therefore does its best to make up for no existing imports or exports to any other nation. Their money, the Ouro, is useless to any other nation, and thus also deny usage of any other nation's currency, not even having a trade rate for any other currency.
The Overthrough Empire probably makes money.
Probably.
==Infrastructure==
The Overthrough Empire, being the holder of mainland France, has a very French architecture making up its land.
It's rather straightforward.
Infrastructure built by the new masters of the land are more resembling of some modern mixture of bleak Soviet-Era architecture, looking rather industrial and concrete.
==Culture==
The Overthrough Empire seems to have a lackluster amount of culture, beyond that of the old French government that once ruled. Aside from that, new creations are more lenient on pleasing The Overlord directly in some fashion.
===Art===
Portraits and busts of The Overlord are known to be produced on a constant basis to be hung and placed everywhere in the Empire. They are noted to very specifically obscure his face, however, and are usually more detailed on his chest or head in general. Statues of the Overlord are also noted to exist in every major city of the Empire, once again lacking the facial features.
===Architecture===
The architecture of the Empire is rather copypaste of the previous French government, but new developments are known to harbor a sort of metal gray industrial look to them, usually very blocky and windowless.
===Cinema===
The Overthrough Empire is constantly procuring several dozen propaganda films on a dire basis to keep their populace entertained. These films usually portray neighbors as evil warmongers, and persuade the population enough into absolutely hating them.
===Food===
The delicacies of France continue to be enjoyed by Overthroughian citizens, but are, however, more reserved and are made more scarce by negligence for the more elite population. Overthroughians enjoy simplistic meals such of that of corn, pasta, potatoes, and other simplistic fruits and vegetables. Overthroughians eat a hearty amount of soups and sludges, with little space for properly put-together meals, as most of these food items are distributed through rations given by the state.
===Literature===
The Overthrough Empire enjoys writing all sorts of poetry and novels about the glorious (overdramatized) history of the Empire, and the many works and glory of The Overlord in making everything work out proper. Most of these writings are rather detestable to outsiders.
===Media===
The Overthrough Empire, prosperous in banning the internet, takes firm control over its peoples with secured closed 'social medias' made only for the nation to keep news rolling at high speeds. No information from the outside gets into the Empire, and such the other way around is hoped for. Most media consists of subliminal war propaganda, and the such.
===Music===
Many glorious songs are written for The Overthrough Empire in patriotic tune to the masses of the Empire. Many of them are influenced by old American and Russian patriotic tunes, therefore carrying large choirs and huge orchestras in their sheets.
===Society===
The Overthroughian society is perhaps one of the worst enclosed autarkies of the planet. Closely mirroring North Korea and China's Communist systems, the Overthrough Empire practices enclosed censorship and repellent of all outside information, keeping everything to their own bubble, perse. Whilst immigration is legal in the nation, emigration is punishable by death, therefore making also the Empire's disputed borders one of the most guarded ones on the planet.
Citizens of the Overthrough Empire do not question the large amounts of pollution, ruins, and chemical waste and warfare that plague many parts of the nation. In such a short span, the new regime had already begun construction of new factories and military installations all across the nation, leading to all sorts of waste left behind.
It is believed that the citizenry is perhaps drugged by their tap water, or is otherwise kept under control by all sorts of manipulative narcotics and societal systems that inhibit resistance to the state.
====Quick Facts====
Capital and Corporal Punishment have always been legal.
All dissent against the government is illegal, and will always be.
Homosexuality is illegal and punishable by death in the Empire.
The prison system has returned and heavily reinforced by the Empire, finally reworked around 2036. Most prisons work more as death camps than anything.
State Press has been maintained over independent sources since 2021.
Divorce and adultery is illegal in the Empire, and is maintained by police force since legislation signed in 2022. This notion also banned abortion and contraception.
Slavery was legalized in the Empire early in 2023. Child Labor followed also a month after such legislation was passed.
Conscription has been in effect since 2024.
The Overthrough Empire is known to have banned the usage of the internet in 2025, and later total usage of computers in 2030.
Zoos stopped being maintained in 2026. This also includes all parks, wildlife centers, and the sorts.
Automobiles were banned in usage in the Empire in 2032, only allowing federal transportation such as buses and tractor trailers to continue operation.
The nation has had a curfew since 2032.
The Overthrough Empire, initially abolishing and killing French Healthcare during the takeover, reinstated Universal Healthcare in 2035 for its people; still terribly underfunded.
===Sports===
The Overthrough Empire continues to host many of their sports after a brief ban of such activity between 2024 and 2026. American Football, Basketball, Cricket, Cycling, Football, Handball, Hockey, Judo, Lacrosse, Rugby, Skiing, Tennis, and other sports continue to prosper in the nation on a national level, currently with minimal state funding, causing a drop in tournaments and maintenance of such facilities.
==Notes==
*The original Empire was much larger than current, although, that may return again soon...
==Appearances==
===Torn Earth===
The Overthrough Empire, first making its official appearance per the proper conversion of the series from post-its to paper, plays an important antagonist role throughout a large mass of the series. They are a serious pain!
===Torn Earth: 2042 (RP)===
Being that this roleplay takes place during one of the turning points of the war, The Overthrough Empire is an obvious antagonist to the story.
