Imperial Commission

The Imperial Commission is a branch of the Alamo Empire's military and government dedicated to the designing and production of all medals, uniforms, flags, and any other object or attire that will "represent" the Empire. They are noteworthy for their level of quality control and refusal to use materials that are deemed "subpar," and any potential design changes to existing medals or other representations of the Empire must go through so many channels and consultations with the military that even the slightest change to the materials used, even if it does not alter the appearance of the design, is likely to be denied.
Despite the importance of what they make, the Imperial Commission actually have very little power or clout within the Alamo Empire. The Imperial Commission's upper ranks and board of directors tend to be sparse to the point of being called a skeleton crew. This is certainly because of the conflicting prerequisites for being a part of the Imperial Commission's leadership being very high combined with the utter lack of prestige for the position; anyone who qualifies for the position, due to imperial culture focusing more on the frontlines and tactical components of the military, will be unlikely to take it.
The mishandling of the Imperial Commission is often considered a sticking point against Hretlakk Flametail's leadership over the Alamo Empire. To incentivize joining the Imperial Commission, pensions and salaries for the positions were increased past the point of some more difficult jobs in the imperial army. Though the intended incentives were quickly rolled back to a more reasonable number, the attempt was cited as evidence for her being unsuited to lead the Alamo Empire.
