The Empire of the Eternal Sun
The Empire of the Eternal Sun is a mainly medieval faction situated eastward of Solstice City. Isolated from the more technologically advanced civilizations by sea and mountain, the EOES was not discovered by the Authority until 5 ACWC (After Contact with the Cea). Its main rivals are fellow medieval organizations like the Republic of Bastion and the Empire of Avaria (Who are to be covered in their own articles) whom they clash with frequently. They are best know for the 'puppeting of Tsar'. A massive land invasion involving nearly 300,000 men and 400 siege weapons. The outcome was massive, with the once-great empire of Tsar bending at the knee to the EOES. The only category the EOES fails in is naval power, shown in the humiliating loss at Overworlds End. Avarian officials often mock this loss, as EOES territory is located on the north shore of the continent.
Structure
The Emperor is in charge of all runnings in the Empire with a system of Lords and Vassals in charge of individual cities, towns, and castles. Every Solstice, TRUE citizens of the empire, are brought before the Emperor and asked to share any recommendations to the military, laws, etc.
Public Agenda
The EOES's main agenda is the complete annexation of the sub-continent, which means taking Avaria and The Republic of Bastion. The two factions are seen as unruly and have to be tamed by the Emperor and his subjects. Another agenda is to have an 'Eternal Empire', one that will outlast all others, Each Emperor, before his crowning has to swear an oath to the preservation of the Eternal Empire and its loyal subjects.
Assets
The EOES is almost always ready for war, with 500,000 troops at the ready to invalid, or defend. Its Cavalry consists of 200,000 knights and horsemen readily trained and equipped. The EOES gets most of its resources overland and overseas from allies like Unity and from its colonies in the Southron Isle. It has enough to produce food, water, weapons, and other essential goods for itself if the need arises. Navalwise though, not so much, the EOES relies on the not so reliant Unity navy to defend its shores from naval invasion. BUT, with Unity tied up with an everlasting war with Seprality, the navy has other, more important subjects to attend to. The main EOES navy, in fact, consists only of 25 operational ships and 73 damaged ships in dock to defend from naval invasion. If this occurs, the EOES has catapults defending the shores and seas from attack.
Mythology & Lore
At the start, there was nothing, no sound, no life, nothing. In the grayish mess that was the sky, a hand formed, what formed this hand, however, is beyond human understanding. The hand slowly drifted down towards what was going to be the ground, stars and nebulas coming off it like flickers of flame. As it got closer to the ground the stars and nebulas changed to clouds and blue skies and oxygen appeared from these flickers too, making the sky a brighter blue the closer the hand went to the ground. Finally, the hand outstretched its mighty finger and touched the ground creating emerald grass and leafy trees. It also created the first god, Vita (meaning life in Latin). Vita glanced around the new, green world and sighed, that sigh formed into a wind spirit "Ventus" (Please excuse me for using Latin in names, the EOES seems very Latin to me). Ventus, the wind god circled the new world, creating the directions and the directional winds, North (Septentrionalis), South (Meridianam), West(Occidens), and East (Orientem) each of which would become a god and goddess in their own right. Meanwhile, Vita was creating the life cycle, with all the animals in them. Then he got a little creative, "Hmm" he thought, "what if I merged two different animals together to create a new one"? He got a horse and used his godly magic, a horn appeared on the poor creature's head! It snorted as if in laughter. Vita smiled and used his magic again making the new unicorn's coat into holy colors like gold and white. Then, he reached up and tapped the useless horn, infusing it with magic. The unicorn neighed and nuzzled him. while he was close, Vita whispered into his ear and gave him special instructions, then he made him a god, God of Magic. Together the gods created other gods and goddesses to help rule over specific parts of the world. One day Vita created the family of the Emperor to help rule over the newly formed humans, however, some humans didn't accept this emperors rule and spread to other parts of this world, over the endless sea, over the great mountains of the East, they became unruly for not accepting the emperor's rule, and were cursed by Vita for this. Otherwise, technology advanced, with humans learning to read, write, build, farm, and do all sorts of things. The gods stayed distant, but watchful, stepping in once and awhile to prevent the extinction of a certain species, provide directions and guidance to humans as they advanced to greatness.
