Third Akratian Empire

The Third Akratian Empire, commonly known as Akratia, is an Imperial Successor-state. Akratia was established after December of 2023, when Ayedren Lechnios-Yavanov, King of Tarneos, would purchase Ekara, and for the first time in almost 3 years, Ekara was back under control of the Akratian people. Ayedren began to renovate the Citadel, and tear out the Tortugan influence.
==Overview==
===Government===
While the Emperor held absolute power over the state and ran it from Aspeia, the empire's territories were fragmented into multiple Duchies that were governed by old aristocratic families, high-ranking military, and wealthy landowners. These formed an unofficial court that acted as a check and balance on the power of the Emperor. An essential they had is to appoint people, known as Karls, to act act as governors over their respective lands with full Imperial support. There was also a People's Council from the Kingdom of Tarneos, which formed an elected wing of the Akratian Senate.
===Culture===
Akratian society is oriented towards creation of wealth, the expansion of their territory, and spreading its culture of martial might and patriotism. Akratia perceive fertile lands and resources as scarce. This struggle for resources is consider a threat to the very existence of the Akratian Empire and it's people. Another core tenant of the Third Empire's culture was that of environmentalism, re-wilding projects, and tearing down ruins which made the landscape ugly were a high priority. The Akratians are known to be a people with unparalleled determination to secure their future, possessing a strong sense of duty, honor and loyalty towards their friends and, most importantly, their Emperor.
