Media in the Tyrion Empire (Sauria 1E)

Media on Sauria, prior to unification under the Tyrion Empire, was not unlike that of Earth but it shifted into a highly regulated industry during the 3340s when the Imperial government stepped in to promote educational, and informative programming on radio and television. This promotion via incentive changed to an enforcement of such and eventually to the Imperial Government having broad power over newspapers, books, and all media on the planet. Creativity was stifled by these regulations, and in time Saurians came to trust all they read, hear, and see as true or to have an air of truth they can discern though study.
The most common genres are moral narratives, historical fiction, documentaries, biographical films, hard science fiction, and informative material such as infocommercials and tv shows featuring occupational information akin to Earth's "Dirty Jobs", "Undercover Boss", etc. Nature, Disaster, and Survival genres also have some popularity.
==Examples of Films==
*They Come from Earth - Put into production around the time the Empire considered remilitarization and invassion of Earth the film 'They Come from Earth' is a science fiction alien invasion film where Humans invade Sauria and begin to make Sauria colder though machines so as to be more endurable to them (as they can't stand the heat). It's main focus is how Sauria might react to an invassion from Earth and it's one of the many films Saurians are not allowed to take with them to Earth, following the immigration treaties, as the Empire fears it'll be studied by the various military forces on Earth.
==Examples of TV Shows==
*Seven Thrones - Currenlty the longest continuous TV series in the Tyrion Empire; Seven Thrones is a historical drama focused on the seven royal families of the most prominant nations prior to the Third World War (including the Tyrion Throne). Seven Thrones is on it's last season as of 2017 (Earth Calender), with an announced sequel series to take place during the war it's self. The sequel series - One Blood - will focus on great military figures from the third world war (the war that unified the planet) with ocassional apperances from the characters and cast of Seven Thrones. One Blood is a very anticipated series.
*Wild Wild Now - A Hatchling program focused on wildlife and hosted by an energeticly enthusiastic and very passionate host Wild Wild Now was already a popular series that became more watched when it began to explore's Earth's wildlife. The host had been invited to Earth by the same companies that made first contact and has relished the stay. He got to meet his 'Earth Counterpart'; Steve irwin when they did a joint episode- the whole thing has been considered rather heartwarming having done much to ease tension between Saurians and Humans.
