The 2nd Empire of Akratia

Overview
The 2nd Empire of Akratia ( or the 2nd United Empire ) was proclaimed by Emperor MW_Neoz, after a session of the Akratian Oligarchs. As its predecessor The United Empire, the 2nd Empire is an expansionist and militarist federation seeking to expand it's dominion and culture of Patriotism, martial and industrial might. With the ultimate goal, to unify the lok Plains, as well as the Akratian people, while securing it's territory and hegemony.

Location
The Empire is located in the south of Rathnir and on the western side of Sparwood. It shared multiple borders with many other nations such as the Grand Republic of Lumaire or invaders as Auszan / Sironians.

Provinces and territories
The United Empire is divided into three provinces.
 * Akratia. Under the direct authority of the Emperor.
 * Cities : Akratia/Applewood (Eastor)''
 * The Duchy of Instour. Owned by Arkos superpa33.
 * The Possession of Isheleryn. Owned by the leader of the Imperial Guard.

Government
While the Emperor held absolute power over the state and runs it from the Black Citadel, the empire's territories were fragmented into multiple Duchies that were governed by old aristocratic families, high-ranking military, and wealthy landowners. These formed an unofficial court that acted as a check and balance on the power of the Emperor. An essential right they owned was that their appointees could act as governors over their respective lands with full Imperial support. They could therefore automatically create small empires.

Religion
The Akratians were always open to a multitude of religion and beliefs, but the majority of the Akratians were confident in their beliefs of their protective god, which they consider to be 'the god above all', 'the first and the only' and 'the being of time'. Some myth says that his incarnation still lives among them, watching over them and offering some chosen ones the ability to manipulate time.

The pursuit of wealth and the belief in science and industrial development had replaced most traditional forms of religion in Akratia. Forms of meditation still existed in mysticism and martial arts, but were not widely practiced. The government of the United Empire preferred to be worshiped itself instead of some imperceptible deity.

Culture
The Empire's society was oriented towards domination of other nations, the expansion of it's territory, and spreading it's culture of martial might and patriotism. Akratia perceived fertile lands and resources as scarce. This struggle for resources was considered a threat to the very existence of the Akratian Empire and it's people. They used to believe that other nations will conquer the lands and gain an upper hand if stagnation ever occurred.

The Akratians are said to have been people with unparalleled determination to secure their future, possessing a strong sense of duty, honor and loyalty towards their friends and, most importantly, their Emperor.
