Imperial Remnants in Armanya

The **Imperial Remnants in Armanya**, also known as the **Imperial Communities**, refer to the remnants of the Galactic Empire that had arrived on Armanya in the early days of the Spellcross War. After the Galactic Empire had been broken apart due to the machinations of the Forces of Darkness's own dark mages, who unleashed a series of devastating natural disasters and calamities that crippled the Empire's worlds and preceded the Spellcross War in addition to Imperial forces allied with the Forces of Darkness, those who attempted to escape would find themselves in a universe that was far more different from where they came from.

Despite being forced to work under the Alliance, the Imperials had outgrown their beliefs in the New Order to the point that the idea of democracy they scoffed at only fail due to the ones at the top controlling everything both from top to bottom and bottom to top. The news of the destruction of the Galactic Empire by arriving refugees, combined with the battles and experiences they waged and gained during the war, softened them to the realization that everything is black, gray and white. Lastly, they had come to the conclusion that the Alliance, though flawed, needed reforms to make it a permanent and official interplanetary government; such a conclusion would come in the Battle of Blaain's Prison. Even after the war the Imperial remnants decided not to be lured by the predatory behaviors of the most powerful nations on Armanya and declared the Alliance to be the one and only government they would answer to.

## Overview

The Imperial communities were sparsely spread throughout the world, with the majority located in Novaya, Saiyane, Nova Roma, Antarctica, the Sahara, the Mongolian Steppe, the Grand Canyon, the Nevada Desert, as well as a number of interplanetary colonies the Armanyans had established prior to the Spellcross War. The total Imperial population was 106,584,324 during the Spellcross War, with the final tally at 326,571,905.

### Politics

The Imperial communities operate under different forms of government, but the most common were militaristic governments such as stratocracies, military juntas and military dictatorships. In this case, the Imperials operate under a Despotist (Military Junta) and/or Paternalist (Stratocracy) regime. While Moffs and rarely Grand Moffs were seen as leaders, it was agreed that the military governors were the main leaders of their communities.

Despotism and Paternalism were two major ideologies that dominate the Imperial remnants, while Fascism is another major though less common ideology; Third Positionism, a neofascist ideology, would be growing within some. Few had adopted any other ideologies, but all in all National Socialism is not used due to how extreme it were.

## List of Imperial Remnants

### Novayan Imperial Remnant

The Novayan Imperial Remnant is one of the Imperial Remnants in Armanya. Based in parts of Novaya and with 132,565,219 Imperials, it is one of the largest Imperial remnants in Armanya. It is led by a hereditary military dictatorship where the Cakthor-Caustral family, not so different from the Norsoutha-Tomoshima family, ruled as hereditary military governors. The Novayan Imperial Remnant also have an admiralty staff which act as the executive and legislative branches of government.

The 115th Imperial Armored Division and 235th Imperial Division were the main military units of the Novayan Imperial Remnant. The former is more notable for its first arrival on Armanya. It is formed from the 13th Legion and 115th Stormtrooper Legion, as well as remnants of the 935th Imperial Armored Division. Unlike other Imperial military units, the 115th Imperial Armored Division and in turn the Novayan Imperial Remnant used both Imperial-era and Clone Wars-era military equipment. Among such equipment were the All-Terrain Tactical Enforcers, which had been supplemented by Novayan-made armored fighting vehicles.

The Novayan Imperial Remnant is host to several religions. The predominant religion is Pormasyneidism, meaning "The Formation of Consciousness" and coming from "porma" and "syneidos", resulted from the Imperial remnants' learning of the existence of gods, afterlives and so on; the most dominant denomination is Novayan Imperial Pormasyneidism, which is handled by the Novayan Imperial Cult. Christianity, Islam, Shintoism, Buddhism, Selenism, Neo-Gnosticism and Taoism were minority religions.
