Fiction:Second Roman Republic

The Second Roman Republic (Latin: Secundum rei publicae) is a consular republic founded by the descendants of Romans transplanted by the Draconid Imperium as an experiment. Since then they have grown, quickly and savagely carving out a 12 000 system-large empire through war and diplomacy.

History

Government
The Second Roman Republic is ruled by a senate and two consuls, much like the ancient Roman republic they descended from. The senate itself is made up of wealthy families (known as patricians), and it is the senate that elects new consuls and makes decisions alongside the consuls. The reasoning for there essentially being two heads of state is that the power is shared, making it harder for the one to completely take over the government. Another measure to keep the consuls in line is a one-year term for each. However they can be reelected any number of times.

Military
The Roman military is brutally efficient and massive. It is based off of the later, professional legions of the period; With professional citizen soldiers serving long twenty-year terms, where at the end of which they are given a plot of land a fine residence to live off of, along with a large sum of money. Non-citizen Auxilia provide support roles in artillery and logistics, with which at the end of there term they are granted citizenship; A great honour.

Infantry
Hastetti - The Hastetti is the basic infantry of the Roman army. Armed with an assault rifle, sidearm, and, as with all military personell, a vibrogladius. They form the first "line"; weakening the enemy for the more experienced Princuplii. The name derives itself from the core Latin Hastatus, which served the same purpose.

Princuplii - Heavier infantry, Princuplii are those that have survived service as a Hastetti and are given superior equipment and weapons; Which are more specifically optimised for destroying bigger targets. Squads of Princuplii Are generally mixed in with squads of Hastetti to provide the necessary support. They are armed with Carbines, an RPG, a sidearm, and several grenades, alongside the vibrogladius.

Trierrius - Filling in the most elite and longest-serving infantry are the Trierrius. The units are quite rare, and are armed heavily. Making use of power suits, and armed with powerful gauss rifles. When it comes down to the Trierrius being used by a commander, it either means the Romans have broken through, and the battle is going quite well, or its fell down to the Trierrius, and the battle's going terribly.
