Krogan Empire

The **Krogan Empire** was a faction that was formed by Drogar Ravenor, made up of several clans allied under the goal of taking revenge on the Council for crimes against the krogan. They were one of the founding members of the Terminus Confederacy and took part in the Terminus War against the Citadel Council. During the Galactic Summit, the Krogan Empire agreed to a truce to fight against the Reapers. Following the Reaper War, the Krogan Empire has dissolved into separate clans once more.

## History

### Formation

The Krogan Empire had been formed some time before the Genophage was cured in 2185. However, it particularly gained prominence after the death of Blight Dominion leader Drogar Ratarok, who was killed by GUARDIAN and the Krogan Empire in the Battle of Wrill. Upon Drogar Rataok’s death, Drogar Ravenor was able to unite several clans who believed in the Dominion’s ideals under the banner of the Krogan Empire. Similar to the Blight Dominion, he was able to convince many that the krogan should take revenge for crimes done against the Council and deserved more reparations for centuries of set-back.

### Terminus War

On January 25th, the Krogan Empire formed the Terminus Confederacy alongside the Batarian Hegemony and the Skyllian League. While not all krogan associated themselves during this banner, many still held grievances against the Council, believing they deserved reparations after centuries of setback. However, even krogan that greatly opposed this decision had little power to stop Drogar Ravenor’s rampage.

Unrestricted by Council regulations, the Krogan Empire pooled whatever resources it had to building up fleets for the Terminus War. However, with limited resources and scientists, they were able to build few ships and mostly contributed ground troops to the war. Many krogan ended up joining WARD, although a few also joined GUARDIAN in order to speak out against Ravenor’s violence.

### Reaper War

By 2187, cracks were forming within the Krogan Empire. Many clans were starting to believe Ravenor’s ideals were too violent and were resisting his rule, while the allied clans that made up the Empire were starting to fight amongst themselves. By mid-2187, Drogar Ravenor was dead and the Empire dissolved into separate clans once more, with some maintaining more coexistence than normal. When GUARDIAN called the Galactic Summit and revealed the existence of Reapers to the galaxy, the krogan were ready. Many clans agreed to the truce and readily sent forces to the Omega-4 relay, making vital contributions in taking down the Reapers.

### Aftermath

In 2190, the Krogan Empire has dissolved. Separate clans are governing themselves without any centralised government, although many clans are cooperating for the greater good of the krogan and are now commonly referred to as the 'Krogan Clans'. Due to their efforts in the Reaper War, the krogan were awarded their old embassy on the Citadel with ambassador representation through the Galactic Concordant. This also enacted reparations for the Genophage from the turians and salarians, with the Salarian Union assisting with environmental recovery on Tuchanka, while the Turian Hierarchy ceded the colony of Gellix to the Krogan Clans, except for a military and prison complex in the Anapondus area.
