Fiction:Drakodominatus Tyranny/Economy

Overview= The economy of the Tyranny has always been exceedingly strong, being an economic powerhouse. However, this masks the fact that it is in a constant state of equilibrium, the supply of new resources being equivalent to the need of resources to fuel the ever growing fleet and construction need of megastructures. In addition to this, the rate of change of both is the same, and thus the Tyranny generally has very little to no spare money. All money is pumped in somehow, to either the military, research or production, with absolutely none being spent on things like entertainment, as the entertainment apparatus already exists and does not require costly maintenance or funding.

Industry=

Factories
The industry of the Tyranny is what allows it to progress so much in both research and military construction. Construction generally has one of four forms. The first form is geoengineering, the least advanced and most pervasive of all of the technologies, in which slaves are used in order to mine the world using advanced techniques. This involves deep drilling and climate control and is the least efficient of all the technologies. The second form is the stellar foundries, which allow people to produce massive amounts of material by sucking the energy and matter of a star and using quantum replicators in order to change the raw matter into different forms, such as ships. This is the method used in the Tyranny's Helios Class Stellar Foundries. The third form is to use quantum replicator equipped nanobots in order to harvest the accretion disks of black holes, and this technology was taken from the AGC Deep Core Project, which the Tyranny hijacked. this is the method used in the Oblivion Class Black Hole Factories. The fourth is not so much a type but a refinement and improvement, which is called the quantum foundry, which entails using nanobots to consume matter and to use quantum replicators to turn things into what is needed. This is the method used in nanoswarms and Cerberus Class Devourers.

Workers
Although the geonengineering of the Tyranny has long been operated by slaves, who were constantly worked to death by their cruel overseers once it was seen that they were no longer in a condition to do sustainable work, although they were given fertility drugs to produce children to be slaves. Due to the Revolts of December 21, the Tyranny has shifted to biodrones, which are monsters created from other creatures who have been processed by the Dominatus in giant vats. Each biodrone is distinctly aware of all of their actions, and upon further vocal analysis, their moans are actually pleas for help, as they cannot do anything but obey the wishes of their Dominatus masters. These creatures live a life of absolute pain, as their life energy is siphoned off in order to provide power for their actions, so as to serve the Dominatus. They are distinctly aware of everything they do, and what they have done to hurt the Gigaquadrant, as well as the pain inflicted onto them by the Dominatus. Reports have it that the sound they make when these abominations die is a sigh of relief, for they are finally free.

Infrastructure= The Infrastructure of the Tyranny is very advanced and is what allows an empire of it's size to coordinate and react very fast. Chief among it's infrastructural wonders are the Tannhauser Class Hypergates, which allow the Dominatus to traverse through their colonies across different galaxies at incredible speeds, as they are able to easily travel from galactic capital to galactic capital quite fast. Their inter-universal infrastructure is also impressive as they are able to go to parallel universes and establish colonies there with their Vestibule Class Hypergates. Inside galaxies, travel is generally done through hyperdrives, which are fast enough to allow rather rapid travel.

The Tannahauser Class Hypergate is an absolutely massive construction that is 500,000 kilometers from it's central point to any of it's extrema that is incredibly crucial to the infrastructure of the Dominatus. It is the structure that is able to facilitate the intergalactic travel of the Dominatus and one of each is located on each of the Galactic Capitals. It is what allows incredibly rapid travel between galaxies by large amounts of Dominatus ships if both locations both have Tannhauser Class Hypergates.

See Datbase MAR page for data on Vestibule Class Gateship

Trade= The Tyranny trades quite a bit in order to make money, and generally sells their obsolete weaponry to smaller empires in order to establish monopolies so as to charge exorbitant amounts of cash. They have done this an incredible amount of times and still do it. This method of trade is particularly helped by the fact that their weapons makings skills are incredibly good, meaning their obsolete weaponry is incredibly powerful for most races, and the fact that given a monopoly on something, they are able to make large amounts of money.
