The Charkaonese Empire is an absolute monarchy ruled by one Emperor that started in 2079 after the Charkaonese Civil War. The CPR had beaten the CRR but the progressivists still faced sanctions, one of them being the abolishment of a multi-party state. Char Ko was faced with an option, start a one party state and resign or start an absolute monarchy with himself as ruler. He chose the latter and the Charkaonese Empire began. The Charkaonese Empire has only started one conflict, the Battles of Preservation due to Char Ko swearing to never start a conflict. The Empire is authoritarian and greatly values safety over privacy. This has led to many human rights issues but Char Ko says that he will do anything to stop another war. Following the war crimes Yin Bi committed, the empire is full of homeless. Police Brutality is a common occurrence and small crimes can result in life sentences.

After the siege of Paruzuma during the Charkaonese Civil War, the city was mostly destroyed and deserted which caused many deaths and the need for a new capital city. The new Royal City of Kohashi which was built in 2079 became the new capital city.

## History

### Founding

Following the defeat of Yin Bi and the CRR in Charkaonese Civil War, the CPR still faced sanctions even though they beat them, one of the sanctions being the abolishment of a multi-party state. Char Ko was faced with an option, start a one party state and resign or start an absolute monarchy with himself as ruler. He chose the latter and the Charkaonese Empire began.

### Plasma

Plasma is an extremely valuable substance which is extracted from Plasmanium Ore that is only found in Eastern Zedici. Only Charkao and Charkcity use it as it is extremely expensive to make it useable. Plasma is extremely dangerous therefore it is mainly used for weaponry. Unrefined Plasma has a temperature of 7000 to 8000 degrees celsius and will burn through bone if it is touched, most likely spreading through your entire body. The Plasma used by the Charkao government is refined and much cooler but will still set you alight and most likely kill you unless extinguished.

In December 2079, Char Ko passed the Claiving Act which allows Plasma military grade weapons to be used by law enforcement and also brought back the infamous and highly controversial Yronito, a plasma powered melee baton that has caused the disintegration of body parts and deaths in some cases. The murder rate per 100,000 dropped to 0.17 which is absolutely ludicrous for a nation of Charkao's size. There are obviously many police-civilian deaths that are not counted as murder.

### Royalty Construction Plans

Plans are a series of plans in construction that began on the 28th of December 2079 that involved the deforestation of large parts of the Chanurin Rainforest to make room for military bases, palaces and 'Royal Cities'. Royal Cities are cities made to look like neo-Ming Dynasty cities, with one of the first Royal Cities being made to look like the Forbidden City with a futuristic twist. The cities may look beautiful but the funding towards them are coming from the people's wages and the builders of the cities were on criminally low salaries. 7.5 million acres of rainforest was destroyed killing billions of animals and many native Dabatoids were hunted and shot. If they were spared it was to be enslaved for construction.

### Chark-Minted War

After the collapse of the Reformation League and the end of World War 4, what was left of the Minted Island Provisional Government had rising tensions with the Charkaonese Empire. Joshinstreetian forces had long left the land and the Civil War began to calm down and only 3 contenders remained in the land: The newly converted due to sanctions Minted Republic, The Popular Frontier and the Risen Gaelbeagh Nation. The Minted Republic was ruled by Siobhun Leifdotter, a Joshinstreetian-Mintish woman who temporarily lead the leftist rebels funded by Joshinstreet. Due to the Minted Republic being set up by Joshinstreet, they had good relations and trade ships would regularly go to Joshinstreet from the Minted Republic. Many of these ships would enter the Chanurin Sea and would be shot down or bombed by the Charkaonese Empire. The Minted Republic was obviously infuriated by this and Siobhun Leifdotter began mentioning her criticisms of Char Ko at speeches. Char Ko then threatened the Minted Republic and a Charkaonese ship going to polynesian islands was intercepted and sunken by the Minted Republic. This infuriated the Charkaonese Empire but Char Ko kept his promise of never starting a war and instead funded the Popular Frontier and Gaelbeagh against the Minted Republic. Leifdotter knew that if the funding did not stop they would be overwhelmed and be defeated so she declared war on the Charkaonese Empire. Char Ko, relieved that he did not have to break his pact but instead breaking his military size sanction, rallied his troops and invaded the Minted Republic. The Republic was much smaller than its Reformatist predecessor as it only contained the Eastern Portion of the Islands. It's more manageable size and weakened strength made its conquering much easier for the Charkaonese Empire. The former Josephite countries including Joshinstreet were so fed up and fearful of global war that they refused to help the Minted Republic, giving Siobhun severe doubt that they would survive this conflict.

The shooting began when a the Charkaonese Empire launched a Naval Invasion on the Minted Republic that resulted in the immediate retreat of Mintish forces from the region of Windert apart from Roshi which remained as a Mintish Stronghold. The Gaelbeagh Nation was also attacking from the eastern front which cornered the Republic into the city of Roshi over a period over 3 months. In an act of desperation, President Leifdotter order an aerial counter-invasion into the Charkaonese Empire which was surprisingly looking successful. They were short on time and eventually Roshi was stormed and taken by Charkaonese forces which lead to the surrender of the Minted Republic and execution of Siobhun Leifdotter. The former Republican land which was around 42 percent of the entire Main Island was conquered by the Charkaonese Empire and became the first official territory taken by the Empire. The new land would later be completely exploited for resources and the Mintish Culture and People was forcefully assimilated into Charkaonese culture.

### Medici's Collapse and Subsequent Conquering by the Charkaonese Empire

Since the end of World War 3 and defeat of the Armaghani Forces, Medici has gradually declined in Standard of Living through debt, sanctions and revolutions. Their alliance with Liamland, Minted Island, Cillwall and Mossgriffin ended due to Cillwall's conquering by Mossgriffin, Mossgriffin's merging with Sweatingrad, Minted Island's political change and conquering and Liamland's political change. They have been forced to deal with many rebellions but without funding from their alliance they have had to retreat from regions that have been overwhelmed with militial strife and chaos. The official Medician nation was dramatically decreasing in size and they let out a call of desperation for help and surprisingly, it was answered. The answerer however, was the Charkaonese Empire and they wanted land but Medici was just happy to get help. The rebel groups declared war on Charkao and the slaughter began. Rebel bases were bombed repeatedly and their might was decreasing rapidly. Medici even got in on the action as Char Ko set up bomb and arms factories throughout Medici. The rebel groups were decreasing, but Charkao's grip on Medici's government was tightening. Medici was also still in debt with their former allies and Ko offered to pay it in exchange for the puppetisation of Medici. Medici President Felipe Calleros reluctantly agreed and now the Empire was mere steps away from conquering Medici. By August 2080, the rebels were gone but the Medician Government was practically a tradition instead of an actual authority. A debate was held on the 22nd of August and Medici declared dissolvement of Government and gave the go-ahead for the Charkaonese Empire to take over. The reasoning being that the only reason the rebel groups were gone was because of the Charkaonese Empire and without their control, rebellions would arise again, their economy would collapse due to deaths. Not to mention the manipulation and propaganda used by Char Ko's Official Imperial Use of Propaganda in Politics Institute (OIUPPI). The nation of Medici was thereforth part of the Charkaonese Empire.

### Ergai Protests

The **Ergai Protests** were Police-led demonstrations held in Dagaodai Plaza, Ergai in September 2080. In what is known as the **Dagaodai Massacre**, Charkaoneses Royal troops armed with plasma rifles and accompanied by war drones from a patrol march fired at the protesting police and those trying to block the military's advance into Dagaodai Plaza. The protests started on September 1st and ended on September 28th when the Empire declared martial law and sent the Emperor's Royal Army to occupy East Ergai. The death toll is estimated at over 35 thousand, with many more wounded. The police were then de-funded and dissolved which led to the military being tasked with law enforcement.

### Halloween Dawn Slaughter

Over a month after the Dagaodai Massacre, on the 31st of October, riots broke out between civilians and Royal soldiers in Ergai when a lone soldier was beat to death by three young citizens. In retaliation, five Royal Specialists opened fire on the crowd of people that the three killers ran into. This led to full blown riots and after 2 hours the soldiers were ordered to abandon the conflict to avoid unnecessary civilian casualties. 9 soldiers were killed and 97 citizens were shot and/or beaten to death.

## Military

The Charkaonese Empire has two militaries: The Royal Military and The Emperor's Military. The Royal Military operates as the main authority and fights in wars and invasions. The Emperor's Military is entirely commanded by Char Ko himself and is mainly used for internal conflicts, policing and traditions. The Charkaonese Empire has a very powerful and advanced military using high tech war drones, war planes and warships. Soldiers have more advanced plasma-arms due to increased funding which identify and shoot enemies and use precision targeting to shoot enemy weak points. The Charkaonese Empire's military is not as powerful as their predecessors, the CDR/CRR/CPR due to sanctions but their might is rapidly increasing.

The weaponry used by Imperial Charkao is high tech but increased funding due to money saved after their cancelled production of Nuclear Warheads which allows Plasma powered weapons to be distributed throughout all ranks in the military. In the Emperor's military the standard issue is a Plasma Bayonet type assault rifle (Combat Type 3 Emperor's Carbine). A Katana (Emperor's Daofen) is also given to the standard Emperor's army-man. The armor given is very light and contains very decorative and traditional elements such as badges, capes and peaked caps. The standard Royal soldier is equipped with a Plasma rifle (Emperor's Type 9 Assault Plasma Rifle which shoots regular bullets with plasma inside. The Plasma inside the bullet is used when a bullet is stuck inside someone's limb or torso, it dissolves itself and the plasma inside can cause the victim to spontaneously combust. The bullet also dissolves when it touches Tanks or any armoured vehicle for that matter. The standard Royal soldier is also equipped with a non-plasma Forker Automatic Handgun, a plasma shocker and a Katana.
