| − | The '''Galactic Empire''', also known as the '''New Order''', is the rightful government of the galaxy, currently ruling a number of sectors in the region of the galaxy known as the Core, as well as territories in other outlying sectors. It is the most militarily capable and economically dominant government of the galaxy.

| − | ==History==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The early history of the Galactic Empire, while relatively recent on a galactic scale, is largely undocumented. As the fortunes of individuals and groups have changed in the Empire, and Emperors themselves risen and fallen, historical documents have been altered, misplaced or outright destroyed. Much of what remains is lacking, and has been pieced together with what remnants, poorly sourced and often blatantly propagandic, remain from those years.

| − | ===Piett===
| |
| − | | |
| − | For a time, the reign of Emperor Piett was good, if conservative. Few reforms were made, and institutional and structural problems of the Empire remained, which could have been accepted but for except for the machinations of a handful in the Empire. Neither Veynom nor Connel were willing to accept second place, and soon joined their forces in an attempt to overthrow Piett. Their attempt was unsuccessful, with themselves and their supporters either being arrested (such as Admiral Gunther von Esling) or fleeing Imperial space (such as former Emperor Bonias). Piett, however, pardoned and reinstated both ringleaders and those supporters that remained.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Slowly but steadily suffering from bouts of paranoia after the attempted coup, and increasingly frequent and vivid visions through the force, [[Piett's retirement|Piett eventually retired]] in favour of Connel and departed for the Outer Rim.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===The Great Break, the Imperial Core and the Dark Empire===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Despite Piett's words, succession would again be decided in battle. Grand Admiral Veynom quickly rallied his forces against the new Emperor in a short but bloody campaign that saw Connel victorious but Veynom remain head of the Navy.
| |
| − | | |
| − | As time passed, both Veynom and Minister [[Ranma]] saw visions through the force, believed to originate from the former Emperor Piett, and both decided to [[Veynom's departure|depart for the unknown regions]] in order to find Piett.
| |
| − | | |
| − | It should not have been expected that Veynom would meekly accept Connel as Emperor, and as subsequent events proved, this was indeed the case. Some time prior to leaving for the Unknown Regions, Veynom had rallied his supporters to break with the Empire, a move taken a few days subsequent to his departure by his successor and friend, Fleet Admiral [[Simms]]. A large number of officers and enlisted hijacked Imperial ships and declared [[Formation of the Imperial Core|they would form a new Imperial government]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | From now on, the Empire would be divided into two groups - the Galactic Empire, with Connel at its head and claiming direct lineage from Drayson, and the [[Imperial Core]], proclaiming Veynom the true Emperor. However, Veynom never returned, leaving Simms to rule in his stead as [[Lord Protector]]. These divisions did not go without notice by the rest of the galaxy, with many regional governments expanding by taking systems now abandoned by the Empire and beyond the control of the Core.
| |
| − | | |
| − | With support dwindling, Emperor Connel soon decided to step down in favour of [[Mccarthur]]. As Connel departed Coruscant, his shuttle exploded. Months later, it was discovered he had not been killed in the blast, and later accepted the post of Minister of Defence under Mccarthur before finally retiring.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Little of significance was achieved during Mccarthur's reign, however a number of noteworthy events did occur. An alien artifact was [[TetraCorp discovery|discovered by members of TetraCorp]] that by an unknown means stimulated the transformation of an unknown number of humans into non-humans.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also during Mccarthur's reign, the Rebel Alliance, a group dedicated to restoring the Republic, [[Imperial-Rebel peace treaty|proposed a peace treaty]] between the Alliance and the Empire. Days later, the Alliance withdrew their proposal, claiming that it was merely a test of the Imperial leadership, however public opinion towards the Alliance was clearly shaken. The next day, the Empire reaffirmed its demand of unconditional surrender.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Eventually, Mccarthur abdicated [[Mccarthur's retirement|in favour of]] Executor [[Charon]]. Not long afterwards, the Imperial Core saw its first leadership change as Lord Protector Simms, having lead the Core since its foundation, stepped down in order to focus on training in the force. [[Jennifer Dreighton]] took his place as Lady Protector.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Around this time, Veynom made an [[Veynom's announcement from the Unknown Regions|announcement from the Unknown Regions]] that had major ramifications across the galaxy.
| |
| − | | |
| − | At some point, members of both the Galactic Empire and the Dark Empire began to approach each other with the issue of a 'merging' of the two Imperial factions in their minds.

| − | ==Society and Culture==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Galactic Empire is officially humanocentric, and to a lesser extent humanoidocentric. This policy has varied over the years, with non-humans being allowed to join the Empire at various times under different Emperors and rising to high rank (indeed, an early Emperor was non-human). A handful of exceptions have been made for particularly gifted or loyal non-humans, such as current Moffs [[Kevin Chambers]] (formerly human, transformed into an Arcona by the [[TetraCorp discovery]]) and [[Mitth`oro`nuruodo]] (Chiss, formerly of the [[Chiss Ascendancy]]).
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Government and Politics==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Since its foundation, the Executive of the Empire has been the [[Imperial High Command]], consisting of those officials supervising particularly important branches or territories of the Empire. While the makeup of the Imperial High Command has varied over the years depending on the fortunes of individuals and departments and the preferences of the Emperor at the time, membership typically consists of the [[Exector|Military Executor]], Commanding Officers of the [[Imperial Navy]] and [[Imperial Army|Army]], the [[Moff|Moffs]] of the Imperial territories, the [[Director of Imperial Intelligence]] and any others the Emperor has seen fit.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Economy==
| |
| − | The currency is the Imperial credit, which is the standard for galactic commerce. the only stronger currency is [[Hapan]] currency, but considering that [[Hapan]] currency is only recognized in [[Hapan]] territory, the Imperial credit remains the undisputed master of galactic economic activity.
| |
| − | The Imperial economy is mostly a free market system, but also maintains some economic control over the companies in which it does business,through [[Nationalizing]] them. Corporations that do business with the Empire are expected to not enter into any contracts with enemies of the empire.Imperials are allowed to trade only on Marketplaces sanctioned by the [[Ministry of Operations]] and the [[Ministry of Finance]], both of which maintain a list of [[Thieves and Blacklisted Traders]].
