Fiction:Galactic Empire of Cyrannus

"The United Republic of Cyrannus is a failed dream. However, today we shall create one that will not fail and like a phoenix from the ashes the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus shall rise!"

- Emperor Antediluvian

The Galactic Empire of Cyrannus, also known as the New Era, the Empire or the Cyrannian Empire is the galactic government of Cyrannus set up in the aftermath of the, after the reorganization of the and the absorption of the.

The United Republic of Cyrannus ended, after years of political instability and turmoil swallowed the galaxy in the form of the Cyrannus War, causing much of its populace to lose faith in the democratic process. The Dark Lord of the, took this to his advantage and used it to achieve his master plan, the complete control of the galaxy.

Origin ( - 0 BNE)
The earliest origins of the Empire reside only in the incomprehensible mind of Antediluvian himself. He had long desired to rule over the hearts and minds of mortals, knowing that destroying them is a waste of the power that they possess. However, he seriously began to set his plans in motion during the Golden Era of the. The rise of a new superpower, the was the perfect oppurtunity to secretly plant his way into the Galaxy's political structure.

Antediluvian organised entry to the capital planet of to various bounty hunters, most notably, Éaltar Gauisa to orchestrate the beginnings of a war between the United Republic of Cyrannus and the Confederacy of Allied Systems. The genius of his plan succeeded and soon the entire galaxy was bound by the shackles of war, the largest in the galaxy's history. As the galaxy rocked back and forth due to the massive battles of the war, Antediluvian once again made his presence known, by orchestrating the Battle of Orbispira to weaken the Confederate fleet and to prepare the Republic's citizens for the coming of the greatest superpower in the galaxy's history. Indeed, by the time Antediluvian had used his charm to influence the to join his New Order, much of the galaxy desired peace. And so, using the Basileus and the promises of a great new order and future for the galaxy, the Dark Lord founded a massive fleet, which aided the URC in the final stages of the battle. The board was set for the Declaration of the Empire.

Beginning of the Dark Times (0 NE -)
Antediluvian strode into the Senate Chamber of Corunnia, and with the aid of convinced the URC Senate that the Cyrannian Republic was a failed dream, and from its ashes, the Galactic Empire of Cyrannus would rise, striking down potential Imperial enemies and ensuring the continutity of order across the galaxy. The entire galaxy responded with haste, with the people of the URC generally celebrating the beginning of a new Era, and the banishment of those who would use force to implement the old ways of the traitorous and his allies of  and the.

To this end, Antediluvian decided to arrest the former President and have him stand trial in the Senate (It's unlikely this would have occured). At the Presidential Palace, Apollo and his supporters were confronted by Imperial Troopers, only to be protected by the radient help of the. Apollo was forced to flee on a Cognatus crusier, to a rendezvous point away from the Empire's reach. However, as the Empire grew and grew, such a place seemed unlikely to exist. Antediluvian however, put Apollo to one side and decided to concentrate on perhaps an even graver threat, the, which was licking its wounds after it's disasterous defeat at. Sending, his trusted acolyte,, Antediluvian told him to destroy all the Confederate leaders with the exception of , the , and the. The former Marinox preformed efficently in this task, and the Tiranozark and the Mortalitas became some of the most important species in the Empire.

During this time, the Empire began to open relations with a selection of empires, most notably and the. The early weeks of the rise of the Empire were quiet, without major incident. Most of the militarys of both the fallen Confederacy and Republic pledged their allegiance to the new Empire, giving them a truly formidable fighting force, with new ship classes and technologies under construction across Imperial space. However, the Emperor first had a major problem that he had to get rid of, the extragalactic empires that colonized the galaxy during the reign of the Republic. He knew that this would be easy to pass with the citizens, as most of the extragalactic colonies, with the exception of were frowned upon. However, with the outing of the Cyrandia Alliance as traitors, Cyrannians were soon calling on their immediate annexation. A small Imperial fleet under the command of Captain Pierea, captain of the Venator Class Angelic led the first stages of the Battle of New Ramhall, however his taskforce of three ships was defeated, with the Angelic forced to crash into the swamps of New Ramhall.

Religion
The Galactic Empire of Cyrannus generally discourages the practice of religion, using the supposed Cognatus Conspracy to support their claims that religions are generally detrimental to Imperial Loyality and rule. Of course, believe in such religions as the Lords of Thirteen (Often mixed up with the, the polerised enemies of the ruler of the Empire, Emperor Antediluvian) are of course particularily frowned upon, while beliefs in such religions like the is also discouraged but it deemed culturally acceptable.

Economy
The Empire (while often deeming a monetary system primitive and yet nessacary considering its sheer size) has a very complex economy, especially after the fall and annexation of the which brought trillions upon trillions of credits into the economy of the Empire, making it much larger than the superpowers that preceded it. As soon as it was formed, the Emperor ordered much of this economy to focus on the newly formed Imperial Army and Navy, placing special concentration on research and development meaning that many new ship classes are currently being constructed by the thousands of shipyards of the Empire, spread throughout Imperial space, the foremost amoung these being the Shipyards over.
