Galactic Empire


 * "Under the Empire's New Order, our most cherished beliefs will be safeguarded. We will defend our ideals by force of arms. We will give no ground to our enemies and will stand together against attacks from within or without. Let the enemies of the Empire take heed: those who challenge Imperial resolve will be crushed."
 * — Excerpt taken from the Declaration of a New Order

Description
The Galactic Empire of the Exodus Boards is currently the largest and most powerful regime in the galaxy. Following the Battle of Corellia, the Empire managed to end its long stalemate with the New Republic and become the dominant power. The two governments have since formed an uneasy truce to deal with the Xen’Chi threat.

The Empire has essentially followed the same path as it has in canon, at least up until the Battle of Endor. From there the Empire’s history has differed quite a bit. Even after the loss of several regents, fluctuating borders with the New Republic, and suffering through political infighting, the Empire has always managed to hold on to a significant portion of the known galaxy.

Only with the rise of Emperor Damascus and then the regentship of Grand Admiral Thrawn has the Empire come so close to reclaiming its former glory. Although weakened from the aftermath of Corellia and its new war with the Xen’Chi, the will of its people has never been stronger.
