Imperial Kingdom

The **Imperial Kingdom**, simply referred to as the **Empire**, is an autocratic empire that rules the world of Remnant and was founded in the aftermath of the Great War. It is currently led by Emperor Amdis Hajime, the "son" of the previous Emperor Adrian Hajime. The Imperial Kingdom was founded by Kin Hajime, who was secretly Darth Bane and a Sith Lord during the Sith Civil War that began prior to the Great War. The government is essentially a reincarnated Sith Empire from several millennia before, and replaced the independence of the four Kingdoms; governments that existed for a long time before the War. The Empire's capital was formerly the city of Mantle before it was moved to the city of Atlas following the Great War and its reorganization. The Imperial Ruling Council serves as the legislative branch of the Empire.

The Imperial Kingdom currently consists of four individual Kingdoms:

* Imperial Kingdom of Atlas
* Imperial Kingdom of Mistral
* Imperial Kingdom of Vale
* Imperial Kingdom of Vacuo

Each Kingdom is headed by a Minister who is part of the Imperial Ruling Council.

## Government

### Rulers of the Kingdom

The name of the Kingdom's Emperor, Amdis Hajime, has always been spoken with high respect along with his "son", Supreme Commander Maynor Hajime. The public had always wondered why the Emperor's son served as Supreme Commander and not as Prince, which was traditional with monarchs. However, this was not the case as Maynor was not actually Amdis' son, instead he was actually his secret Sith Apprentice Darth Vader.

In order to maintain the Imperial Kingdom's stability, the idea of the Emperor and his Apprentice being publicly known as father and son was outlined in Bane's Rule of Two which only allowed two Sith to rule the Kingdom, usually these two Sith were part of Bane's Sith order that existed after the Great War.

### Executive

*Main article: Imperial Ruling Council*
*Main article: Council of Moffs*
Although Amdis is the Emperor, the executive branch also consists of the Imperial Ruling Council, a body of Imperial advisors, who both run the day-to-day activities and the will of Amdis for the Imperial Kingdom. Below the Ruling Council is the Council of Moffs who control the military authority of the Kingdom's regional districts; these Moffs have the power to direct and coordinate military forces in these districts, if the situation desires it.

### Legislative

The legislative duties of the Imperial Kingdom falls to the Imperial Ruling Council.

## Organization

### Military

*Main article: Imperial Armed Forces*
The Imperial Armed Forces is the military arm of the Imperial Kingdom and consists of the Imperial Army, Imperial Airfleet, Imperial Navy and the Stormtrooper Corps, which is an independent branch separate from the Army. The Armed Forces is responsible for carrying out military operations throughout Remnant as well as maintaining order and stability within the cities and towns where garrisons are stationed. The Armed Forces' administration is the Imperial High Command, a body of high ranking military individuals within the Armed Forces.

The most recognizable symbols of the Imperial Armed Forces include the nine *Imperial*-class battlecruisers and their similarly designed *Victory*-class cruisers, the TIE fighters, the All Terrain Armoured Transports and the armour design of the Stormtroopers; these elements of the Armed Forces are what make the Imperial Kingdom an intimidating force through physical and mental force.

### Special Operations

*Main article: Imperial Special Operations*
Separate from the Imperial Armed Forces and Imperial High Command, there also exists a special operations force that mainly recruits graduate Huntsmen from the four Huntsman Academies located within the Imperial Kingdoms of Atlas, Mistral, Vale, and Vacuo.

This branch is considered part of the Imperial Armed Forces, but does not fall under the purview of High Command but instead is commanded personally by the Headmaster of Atlas Academy. The nature of the Special Operations branch is to provide protection against the Creatures of Grimm, soulless creatures that are attracted to negative emotions.

Secretly, however, this branch is used by Salem to ensure that her Sith do not stray off from her original Sith ideology. These graduated Huntsmen would become Sith assassins and agents, and are collectively known as Sith Huntsmen.

### Law enforcement

*Main article: Imperial Security Bureau*
Within the Imperial Kingdom, agencies responsible for law enforcement duties included the various police departments situated in each of the towns and cities. These agencies are also subject to be commanded and/or overruled by a Moff's command, if they desire.

However, the Imperial Armed Forces also had their own law enforcement agency to provide security for its personnel; the Imperial Security Bureau. For the capital city of Atlas, the Atlesian Guard serves as its main police force, replacing the Atlas police department and consists of elite Stormtroopers.

### Science and technology

When the Imperial Kingdom had Imperialized the many manufacturing corporations to support its production, manufacturing and development of its war machines and technology, the administrative branches of these corporations were replaced with Imperial Foremen, officers selected by the Imperial Ruling Council to lead these corporations.

The Schnee Dust Company is currently the only corporation that doesn't have an Imperial Foreman leading its administration. This was because Emperor Kin Hajime personally liked how the SDC developed its technology and Nicholas Schnee's designs for the *Victory*-class cruiser as well as their use of Faunus through slave labor, which also inspired the Imperial Armed Forces to do the same.

## Holiday

*Main article: Vytal Festival*
The Imperial Kingdom's official holiday is the Vytal Festival, which is also known as the "Imperial Festival", that celebrates the founding of the Imperial Kingdom and are usually hosted at either of the four main capital cities of the Imperial Kingdom: Vale, Vacuo, Mistral or Atlas.

The musical theme "Glory of the Kingdom" was created to serve as the holiday's theme as well as the anthem for the Imperial Kingdom. The location of each festival is also known to have been visited by the Emperor and the Supreme Commander, side by side.
