Aristocratic Families of the Empire

> *"The Emperors gave us the burden of protecting our people from the dangers of this Cold Universe. Something we have done ever since the birth of this nation. As nobles, we have rights, but we have duties also; and such duties thereby validate our rights"* - **Kylan Zykov, Archduke of the Empire**

The Empire of Mankind is managed by several Important aristocratic families. The Empire uses a feudal sort of system in which planets and systems (sometimes small areas of a galaxy as well) in Imperial space are managed by the lower nobility, which is tied in responsibility to the high nobility, ruling several Galaxies and they, in turn, are tied to the Emperor.

Since they have a large responsibility over thousands of lives, they also have large portions of wealth and benefits. At the same time they can't escape their duties while citizens are free to relocate around Imperial space and move in their working professions, nobles can't.

The Noble Families are all related to the great founders, those who helped and supported the Emperor Hannakon I Tarnos during the Second Civil War. The Families who were of key importance and the most crucial to the success of Hannakon were granted the title of ***Archdukes of the Empire***.
