The '''Empyrium''' is a collective of star systems located northwest of the galactic centre, extending over portions of the Mid Rim and Center Rim. Empyrium is formed by 5 units - North, West, South and East Empyrium, as well as Sanian Space. It borders the [[Galactic Federation]], the Kintu Empire, the Nebularian Ascendancy, the [[Laconian Union]] and the Varinn Confederacy. There are a total of 116 inhabited systems, the capital is [[Alkid]], but in practice it is [[San]]. The largest planet is [[Inviria]].

Functionally, the Empyrium is an authoritarian empire dominated by the [[Imperial Authority]], but whose actual power varies from system to system and from world to world. Direct Imperial rule exists on 34 systems, whereas 26 systems are regarded as autonomous, or "free". The remaining 56 systems are considered to be unorganised sectors not part of the Empyrium's governance, but which may become part of it. There are five symbolic regions - the formerly separatist Western Reaches now holding the purpose-built, symbolic capital city of the empire on San. The Emperor still resides on the planet Alkid, legally the true capital, in the Empyrium system. Politically authoritarian in nature, the Empyrium can (and does) exercise absolute power over some of its worlds. However in practice, it is a hybrid confederacy - the actual degree of freedom varies from world to world, with San and most other capital worlds having an incredible degree of personal freedom and autonomy from the despots, whereas resourcefully important planets and new colony worlds see the most subjugation.

The Empyrium contains some of the biggest and most luminous stars in the galaxy, for example [[Iota]] and [[Eta Occidens]]. The [[Earendel]] system contains one of the most luminous stars known, calculated to be at least 1 million times more luminous than [[Alpha Sol|Sol]]. The Empyrium contains tens of thousands of systems, at least 116 of which are inhabited. However, only 60 systems are integrated member states that have joined the Empyrium.

The Empyrium was the first civilisation in the [[Milky Way]] to venture beyond the [https://yatawiki.xyz/yatawiki/index.php/Milky_Way#:~:text=are%20quite%20isolationist.-,Galactic%20Halo,-%5Bedit%20%7C galactic halo], having travelled across the universe to the [[Corundum Galaxy]].

== History ==
The Empyrium emerged nearly 9,000 years after the Empyreans began their colonial project. Originally from the planet Sceraxa, the first colony worlds were Primio and Eisan. Eventually, colonists expanded so far that they forgot about each other, however Tsadenian colonists on Pertel discovered [[Void Energy|void energy]], a substance that allowed them to harness faster-than-light technology. The Tsadenian Union became the first Empyrean hegemony, and quickly grew in size, reaching the planet Arbaea. The colonial class of the collective was dissatisfied with void energy rationing (as it was then a finite resource) and seceded as the Colonial Collective, which discovered even more planets, as far as Mansio and Melchizedek. Meanwhile, Primio (which had been isolated for millennia) had discovered void energy on its own through synthesis, allowing their own exploration.

As the Empyrean states kept exploring, Primio discovered the secret of the Alkidian Superanomaly - that it was a memoria bubble. They began covert research of this, and feared that the colonists who entered it long ago may have been empowered by the memoria, and may try to leave it again. By 1200 BCE, essentially all that constitutes Lesser+Greater Empyrium and the Western Reaches was discovered and colonial efforts began to dwindle.

In 932 CE, Primio annexed Alkid without warning, shocking the Tsadenian Union into preparing for war. Furthermore, they also sanctioned an uprising on Iota. The Tsadenian Union believed the best way to deal with the Primian threat was to act now, and invaded their territory. However, this was all part of the latter's plan to draw out the dangers lurking from the Alkidian Superanomaly, which Primio correctly predicted would try to emerge if given the impetus to do so. However, their plan faltered when the invasion from the Superanomaly far surpassed their expectations, quickly overwhelming the Primian fleet and forcing them to capitulate. They then turned on the Tsadenian Union, who proposed a ceasefire on the conditions that they respect the territorial integrity of the Expansion Region (now known as Greater Empyrium.) They claimed that failure to do so would lead them to interfere with the memoria, based on instructions left behind by Primian scientists.

The invaders, who called themselves "[[Invirian Ascendancy|Invirian]]", agreed to these terms, however Tsadenia manipulated the memoria anyway, wiping the memories of the invaders and erasing any knowledge about Invirian Space, their homeworld, and how to return home. Believing them to be weakened as a result, the Tsadenian Union invaded Invirian-occupied territory, only to be met with such ferocity that they were then retreating once more. Eventually, they were so overwhelmed that they capitulated to the invaders, and the Western Reaches soon fell after. Thus, the invaders had achieved their goal of uniting the Empyrean race, however with their memories wiped and the memoria sealed, they could not return to Invirian Space. Seeing as they ''knew'' somehow that they lost their sense of identity, in 919 BCE they reorganised the state into the Empyrium, based off of the Empyrean word for "speakers of the mother tongue." This marked the start of the Imperial Calendar, and the hegemony of the Lesser Empyrium, which was formerly the core worlds of the Tsadenian Union.

Until a few centuries ago, the Empyrium was a confederation of its regions rather than its systems, that ultimately answered to the Lesser Empyrium hegemony based on Alkid. As more and more worlds grew prosperous, culminating in the discovery of the type W star San in the Western Reaches (which led to the establishment of a flourishing colony world, enriched by abundant heavy metals in the system), the Western Reaches to try to split from the collective. The collective soon became embroiled in anti-Imperial conflict, however this was soon eased when the Emperor introduced the Imperial System, restricting the Imperial Authority to less rich worlds. This began the divide between the so-called "free worlds" and the "system worlds" still under the Imperial Authority. The former regions therefore became symbolic in nature, but still retain major importance in the border control system.

The most recent star system to join the Empyrium was Earendel - a population III star with zero major natural satellites. A small colonial outpost was established in its orbit to stage expeditions to the Outer Rim, but these never occurred thanks to Earendel unexpectedly [[The Flavros Project|undergoing a Supernova]], destroying all settlements in its orbit.

In the year 474 CE, a secessionist crisis emerged when [[Laconia]] became the first planet to leave the Empyrium, ultimately forming the [[Laconian Union]].

== Astrography ==
There are thousands of known systems within the Empyrium contained within 39 sectors, of which 60 are member systems. The most populous system is the San system, containing 32 planets and over a trillion people. The least populous systems are Earendel (with only a transient scientific population studying the nebula) and Estoxxhe, whose space station houses around 200,000 inhabitants. Primio is the least populous ''star'' system, with only 32 million inhabitants. For the most part, Empyrium systems are either in the Mid Rim or Center Rim, however there are a few notable exceptions: Alkid and Primio are within the Inner Rim, whereas the systems north of Earendel are in the Outer Rim.

The Empyrium straddles the Delta and Gamma quadrants of the Milky Way Galaxy. Its territories occupy 18 of its grid quadrants (of which 11 contain member systems.) It is 17,600 light years at its widest, and 12,570 light years on its perpendicular axis. It bulges roughly 950 light years either way of the galactic plane, i.e the galaxy's zero point for "height" that forms the galactic disc. At its closest point, it is 16,200 light years from the Galactic Center. Viewed from the Alpha Sol system, the Empyrium is 42,900 light years away and subtends 20 degrees of arc (which, in traditional astrography, covers a right ascension of 5°-25°), which is roughly twenty-times the angular diameter of [[Luna]] when viewed from [[Yata]]. It is situated between the (Inchyrosian) constellations of Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, and Scutum.

The Empyrium is largely connected by a [[FTL Travel|faster-than-light travel]] network that it is reliant upon due to the presence of hundreds, if not thousands, of spacetime anomalies. These anomalies largely hinder FTL travel for a variety of reasons. Some estimate that up to 9% of the Empyrium is covered by said anomalies - the largest of which, the aptly-named [[Alkidian Superanomaly]], covers roughly 3.8% of the entire empire's territory. The three other "major" anomalies are the [[Lyrisian Anomaly]], the [[Grotto of Ilus]] and the [[Earendel Dark Nebula]]. Their origins are still a mystery, spare for those who know that the Earendel Dark Nebula was indirectly created by the [[Flavros Project]].

== Governance and politics ==
The Empyrium is headed by a group of anonymous individuals (whose numbers are truly unknown) in the line of succession to the Emperor, who is also anonymous. Governance is conducted through the Imperial System, in which impoverished and undergoverned planets and systems fall under the direct suzerainty of the Emperor, whereas the more prosperous worlds see higher degrees of autonomy. Planets such as [[San]] and [[Beta Venera II]] enjoy almost unchecked freedom, whereas colony worlds such as Laconia do not have freedom of the press. From the Imperial standpoint, this is a necessary measure to help the worlds "who cannot help themselves" or, in other words, the worlds under their control need it lest they be led astray and fall into a worser state. Free worlds, although not governed, do enjoy the protection of the Empyrium, and membership within it brings connections to the wider space.

Information control of Imperial System worlds is so strict that rich planets are unaware of what "atrocities" occur - if there are any at all. Thus, there is a degree of skepticism amidst their acceptance of the System, seeing it as benevolent dictatorship to nurture new worlds to future prosperity. Imperial System worlds thus do not show much animosity towards their controllers, but to the richer free worlds often in charge of sector-to-sector governance. One exception is Eos, whom many of the Imperial System worlds admire as a model "free world" given their willingness to give charity, which the Imperial System does permit. Some have argued that the System indeed serves to protect worlds under its suzerainty from the power and influence of the free worlds until they themselves prosper.

The Empyrium uses two major calendars: the Imperial calendar (zero date = 919 BCE) and the Eosian calendar (zero date = 462 CE).

=== Imperial Conference ===
The Empyrium has no binding legislature. Instead, all systems voluntarily (and almost always) attend the Imperial Conference on Representatives, an eight-day long meeting of system delegates to discuss trade, diplomacy, and the wider outlook of the Collective. The Imperial Authority attends but does not oversee these conferences. Traditionally, conferences were held on Primio, however the planet's distance from the rest of the Collective meant that border worlds often missed the opportunity to attend. From 434 CE, a bidding system opened, mutually agreed on conference participants, on who would win the right to host the Imperial Conference. It traditionally opens with a social gathering and banquet before week-long negotiations begin.

Initially, some staunch traditionalist free worlds such as Beta Venera II did not attend the conferences withholding the sector from representation (in stark contrast to the wishes of System planets within the Beta Venera sector). However, since 474 CE / 14 AA, all integrated systems of the Empyrium are in regular attendance. Because of the Imperial System, the Imperial Conference unofficially acts as a confederate legislature for only the free worlds.

=== Attitude towards non-member systems ===
Only 60 star systems within the Empyrium are integrated member states. Intelligent, sometimes humanoid life is known to exist on non-member star systems within the borders of the Empyrium, but both the Imperial Authority and the majority of the Imperial Conference adopt a strict hands-off approach to worlds ''unless'' they are known to be space-faring. Non-member systems that achieve this are elevated to candidacy status pending a transitional period into Empyrean integratio. This can take decades though, as the appearance of a new member system within a sector demands investigation into the managing of resources within it, as well as holistically across borders. The last time (other than Eos) when a planet within the Empyrean borders ''joined'' the Empyrium was when Earendel was admitted. Eos was an outlying case, whose candidacy was fast-tracked when [[Wisteria]] vouched for their integration.

Beyond its borders and unclaimed space, the Empyrium holds an isolationist policy due in part to its self-sufficiency, but also to its unwillingness to participate in galactic conflict. As a result. the Empyrium has no standing army outside of the Imperial Authority's enforcement operatives and the border control. Entry into the collective is strictly controlled through four entry points known as "vectors." One is located due east of Sadiym, one west of Centuria, and one south of Althani. Each vector allows transit through specific regions - for example, the vector at Sadiym allows transit only through North, East and South Empyrium. This means that ships that do not wish to make the arduous journey around the Empyrium's borders to access a region on the opposite side often enter at the closest side then arrive at special trading ports that transit foreign goods across regions.

When the transport of people is involved, special permits must be applied for to transit across regions. Altogether, this system functions to keep external security as tight as possible, while also allowing for the easier tracing of people and cargo. The Empyrium employs extensive border control that tracks unlaid (but potential) light lanes away from the vectors that aim to stop illegal crossings. The border policy can therefore be summarised as:

* Vector A - North Empyrium, South Empyrium and East Empyrium
* Vector B - West Empyrium
* Vector C - Sanian Space
=== Holistic management of resources ===
Non-member systems that lie outside the Empyrean borders receive the same rights as those within, meaning colony worlds can be established on uninhabited planets. However, colonies are again universally disallowed ''within'' Empyrium borders, due to fears that a cluster of burgeoning planets could upset the balance of power and resources in the Collective, which has already been divided into sectors to allocate resources to systems or groups of systems. With regards to resource harvesting both within, outside and in colony areas of the Empyrium, a hands-off approach is taken for ''all'' planets deemed suitable for intelligent life, even those that do not possess intelligent life to begin with. This is due to a widely held philosophy of the "nurture principle" - that life should be allowed to develop at any stage, including before [[wikipedia:Abiogenesis|abiogenesis]].

== Regions ==
The Empyrium is divided into five symbolic regions, of which all but one used to have an administrative function before the introduction of the Imperial System.

=== West Empyrium ===
West Empyrium forms the bulk of what was once known as the Western Reaches. Its capital is [[Sentor]] in the Aquadist system.

=== South Empyrium ===
South Empyrium is the old heartland of the Empyrean species, and home to the ''de jure'' Imperial capital of [[Alkid]], which is also the joint-capital of this region along with [[Tsadenia]].

=== North Empyrium ===
North Empyrium is formed of what was once known as the Outer Rim Colonies and the eastern segment of the New Colonies. Its capital is [[Iophiuchi|Yoph Fiyakyi]].

=== East Empyrium ===
East Empyrium forms the central bulk of the collective. Its capital is [[Zandar]] in the Eleazar system.

=== Sanian Space ===
Sanian Space is the smallest, second most populous, and most densely populated region. It contains the [[San System|San system]] which itself holds roughly a third of the Empyrium's entire population. Within it is the planet [[San|San II]], the capital of this region and the ''de facto'' capital of the Empyrium.

=== Scattered Systems ===
An unofficial region comprising the planets over which the Empyrium has ''de facto'' control (see table above), as well as Hycenian Space. They are largely unpopulated except for researchers, and for all intensive purposes are managed from [[Eos]].{{CountryNavbox}}

The '''Empyrium''' is a collective of star systems located northwest of the galactic centre, extending over portions of the Mid Rim and Center Rim. Empyrium is formed by 5 units - North, West, South and East Empyrium, as well as Sanian Space. It borders the [[Galactic Federation]], the Kintu Empire, the Nebularian Ascendancy, the [[Laconian Union]] and the Varinn Confederacy. There are a total of 116 inhabited systems, the capital is [[Alkid]], but in practice it is [[San]]. The largest planet is [[Inviria]].

Functionally, the Empyrium is an authoritarian empire dominated by the [[Imperial Authority]], but whose actual power varies from system to system and from world to world. Direct Imperial rule exists on 34 systems, whereas 26 systems are regarded as autonomous, or "free". The remaining 56 systems are considered to be unorganised sectors not part of the Empyrium's governance, but which may become part of it. There are five symbolic regions - the formerly separatist Western Reaches now holding the purpose-built, symbolic capital city of the empire on San. The Emperor still resides on the planet Alkid, legally the true capital, in the Empyrium system. Politically authoritarian in nature, the Empyrium can (and does) exercise absolute power over some of its worlds. However in practice, it is a hybrid confederacy - the actual degree of freedom varies from world to world, with San and most other capital worlds having an incredible degree of personal freedom and autonomy from the despots, whereas resourcefully important planets and new colony worlds see the most subjugation.

The Empyrium contains some of the biggest and most luminous stars in the galaxy, for example [[Iota]] and [[Eta Occidens]]. The [[Earendel]] system contains one of the most luminous stars known, calculated to be at least 1 million times more luminous than [[Alpha Sol|Sol]]. The Empyrium contains tens of thousands of systems, at least 116 of which are inhabited. However, only 60 systems are integrated member states that have joined the Empyrium.

The Empyrium was the first civilisation in the [[Milky Way]] to venture beyond the [https://yatawiki.xyz/yatawiki/index.php/Milky_Way#:~:text=are%20quite%20isolationist.-,Galactic%20Halo,-%5Bedit%20%7C galactic halo], having travelled across the universe to the [[Corundum Galaxy]].

== History ==
The Empyrium emerged nearly 9,000 years after the Empyreans began their colonial project. Originally from the planet Sceraxa, the first colony worlds were Primio and Eisan. Eventually, colonists expanded so far that they forgot about each other, however Tsadenian colonists on Pertel discovered [[Void Energy|void energy]], a substance that allowed them to harness faster-than-light technology. The Tsadenian Union became the first Empyrean hegemony, and quickly grew in size, reaching the planet Arbaea. The colonial class of the collective was dissatisfied with void energy rationing (as it was then a finite resource) and seceded as the Colonial Collective, which discovered even more planets, as far as Mansio and Melchizedek. Meanwhile, Primio (which had been isolated for millennia) had discovered void energy on its own through synthesis, allowing their own exploration.

As the Empyrean states kept exploring, Primio discovered the secret of the Alkidian Superanomaly - that it was a memoria bubble. They began covert research of this, and feared that the colonists who entered it long ago may have been empowered by the memoria, and may try to leave it again. By 1200 BCE, essentially all that constitutes Lesser+Greater Empyrium and the Western Reaches was discovered and colonial efforts began to dwindle.

In 932 CE, Primio annexed Alkid without warning, shocking the Tsadenian Union into preparing for war. Furthermore, they also sanctioned an uprising on Iota. The Tsadenian Union believed the best way to deal with the Primian threat was to act now, and invaded their territory. However, this was all part of the latter's plan to draw out the dangers lurking from the Alkidian Superanomaly, which Primio correctly predicted would try to emerge if given the impetus to do so. However, their plan faltered when the invasion from the Superanomaly far surpassed their expectations, quickly overwhelming the Primian fleet and forcing them to capitulate. They then turned on the Tsadenian Union, who proposed a ceasefire on the conditions that they respect the territorial integrity of the Expansion Region (now known as Greater Empyrium.) They claimed that failure to do so would lead them to interfere with the memoria, based on instructions left behind by Primian scientists.

The invaders, who called themselves "[[Invirian Ascendancy|Invirian]]", agreed to these terms, however Tsadenia manipulated the memoria anyway, wiping the memories of the invaders and erasing any knowledge about Invirian Space, their homeworld, and how to return home. Believing them to be weakened as a result, the Tsadenian Union invaded Invirian-occupied territory, only to be met with such ferocity that they were then retreating once more. Eventually, they were so overwhelmed that they capitulated to the invaders, and the Western Reaches soon fell after. Thus, the invaders had achieved their goal of uniting the Empyrean race, however with their memories wiped and the memoria sealed, they could not return to Invirian Space. Seeing as they ''knew'' somehow that they lost their sense of identity, in 919 BCE they reorganised the state into the Empyrium, based off of the Empyrean word for "speakers of the mother tongue." This marked the start of the Imperial Calendar, and the hegemony of the Lesser Empyrium, which was formerly the core worlds of the Tsadenian Union.

Until a few centuries ago, the Empyrium was a confederation of its regions rather than its systems, that ultimately answered to the Lesser Empyrium hegemony based on Alkid. As more and more worlds grew prosperous, culminating in the discovery of the type W star San in the Western Reaches (which led to the establishment of a flourishing colony world, enriched by abundant heavy metals in the system), the Western Reaches to try to split from the collective. The collective soon became embroiled in anti-Imperial conflict, however this was soon eased when the Emperor introduced the Imperial System, restricting the Imperial Authority to less rich worlds. This began the divide between the so-called "free worlds" and the "system worlds" still under the Imperial Authority. The former regions therefore became symbolic in nature, but still retain major importance in the border control system.

The most recent star system to join the Empyrium was Earendel - a population III star with zero major natural satellites. A small colonial outpost was established in its orbit to stage expeditions to the Outer Rim, but these never occurred thanks to Earendel unexpectedly [[The Flavros Project|undergoing a Supernova]], destroying all settlements in its orbit.

In the year 474 CE, a secessionist crisis emerged when [[Laconia]] became the first planet to leave the Empyrium, ultimately forming the [[Laconian Union]].

== Astrography ==
There are thousands of known systems within the Empyrium contained within 39 sectors, of which 60 are member systems. The most populous system is the San system, containing 32 planets and over a trillion people. The least populous systems are Earendel (with only a transient scientific population studying the nebula) and Estoxxhe, whose space station houses around 200,000 inhabitants. Primio is the least populous ''star'' system, with only 32 million inhabitants. For the most part, Empyrium systems are either in the Mid Rim or Center Rim, however there are a few notable exceptions: Alkid and Primio are within the Inner Rim, whereas the systems north of Earendel are in the Outer Rim.

The Empyrium straddles the Delta and Gamma quadrants of the Milky Way Galaxy. Its territories occupy 18 of its grid quadrants (of which 11 contain member systems.) It is 17,600 light years at its widest, and 12,570 light years on its perpendicular axis. It bulges roughly 950 light years either way of the galactic plane, i.e the galaxy's zero point for "height" that forms the galactic disc. At its closest point, it is 16,200 light years from the Galactic Center. Viewed from the Alpha Sol system, the Empyrium is 42,900 light years away and subtends 20 degrees of arc (which, in traditional astrography, covers a right ascension of 5°-25°), which is roughly twenty-times the angular diameter of [[Luna]] when viewed from [[Yata]]. It is situated between the (Inchyrosian) constellations of Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, and Scutum.

The Empyrium is largely connected by a [[FTL Travel|faster-than-light travel]] network that it is reliant upon due to the presence of hundreds, if not thousands, of spacetime anomalies. These anomalies largely hinder FTL travel for a variety of reasons. Some estimate that up to 9% of the Empyrium is covered by said anomalies - the largest of which, the aptly-named [[Alkidian Superanomaly]], covers roughly 3.8% of the entire empire's territory. The three other "major" anomalies are the [[Lyrisian Anomaly]], the [[Grotto of Ilus]] and the [[Earendel Dark Nebula]]. Their origins are still a mystery, spare for those who know that the Earendel Dark Nebula was indirectly created by the [[Flavros Project]].

== Governance and politics ==
The Empyrium is headed by a group of anonymous individuals (whose numbers are truly unknown) in the line of succession to the Emperor, who is also anonymous. Governance is conducted through the Imperial System, in which impoverished and undergoverned planets and systems fall under the direct suzerainty of the Emperor, whereas the more prosperous worlds see higher degrees of autonomy. Planets such as [[San]] and [[Beta Venera II]] enjoy almost unchecked freedom, whereas colony worlds such as Laconia do not have freedom of the press. From the Imperial standpoint, this is a necessary measure to help the worlds "who cannot help themselves" or, in other words, the worlds under their control need it lest they be led astray and fall into a worser state. Free worlds, although not governed, do enjoy the protection of the Empyrium, and membership within it brings connections to the wider space.

Information control of Imperial System worlds is so strict that rich planets are unaware of what "atrocities" occur - if there are any at all. Thus, there is a degree of skepticism amidst their acceptance of the System, seeing it as benevolent dictatorship to nurture new worlds to future prosperity. Imperial System worlds thus do not show much animosity towards their controllers, but to the richer free worlds often in charge of sector-to-sector governance. One exception is Eos, whom many of the Imperial System worlds admire as a model "free world" given their willingness to give charity, which the Imperial System does permit. Some have argued that the System indeed serves to protect worlds under its suzerainty from the power and influence of the free worlds until they themselves prosper.

The Empyrium uses two major calendars: the Imperial calendar (zero date = 919 BCE) and the Eosian calendar (zero date = 462 CE).

=== Imperial Conference ===
The Empyrium has no binding legislature. Instead, all systems voluntarily (and almost always) attend the Imperial Conference on Representatives, an eight-day long meeting of system delegates to discuss trade, diplomacy, and the wider outlook of the Collective. The Imperial Authority attends but does not oversee these conferences. Traditionally, conferences were held on Primio, however the planet's distance from the rest of the Collective meant that border worlds often missed the opportunity to attend. From 434 CE, a bidding system opened, mutually agreed on conference participants, on who would win the right to host the Imperial Conference. It traditionally opens with a social gathering and banquet before week-long negotiations begin.

Initially, some staunch traditionalist free worlds such as Beta Venera II did not attend the conferences withholding the sector from representation (in stark contrast to the wishes of System planets within the Beta Venera sector). However, since 474 CE / 14 AA, all integrated systems of the Empyrium are in regular attendance. Because of the Imperial System, the Imperial Conference unofficially acts as a confederate legislature for only the free worlds.

=== Attitude towards non-member systems ===
Only 63 star systems within the Empyrium are integrated member states. Intelligent, sometimes humanoid life is known to exist on non-member star systems within the borders of the Empyrium, but both the Imperial Authority and the majority of the Imperial Conference adopt a strict hands-off approach to worlds ''unless'' they are known to be space-faring. Non-member systems that achieve this are elevated to candidacy status pending a transitional period into Empyrean integratio. This can take decades though, as the appearance of a new member system within a sector demands investigation into the managing of resources within it, as well as holistically across borders. The last time (other than Eos) when a planet within the Empyrean borders ''joined'' the Empyrium was when Earendel was admitted. Eos was an outlying case, whose candidacy was fast-tracked when [[Wisteria]] vouched for their integration.

Beyond its borders and unclaimed space, the Empyrium holds an isolationist policy due in part to its self-sufficiency, but also to its unwillingness to participate in galactic conflict. As a result. the Empyrium has no standing army outside of the Imperial Authority's enforcement operatives and the border control. Entry into the collective is strictly controlled through four entry points known as "vectors." One is located due east of Sadiym, one west of Centuria, and one south of Althani. Each vector allows transit through specific regions - for example, the vector at Sadiym allows transit only through North, East and South Empyrium. This means that ships that do not wish to make the arduous journey around the Empyrium's borders to access a region on the opposite side often enter at the closest side then arrive at special trading ports that transit foreign goods across regions.

When the transport of people is involved, special permits must be applied for to transit across regions. Altogether, this system functions to keep external security as tight as possible, while also allowing for the easier tracing of people and cargo. The Empyrium employs extensive border control that tracks unlaid (but potential) light lanes away from the vectors that aim to stop illegal crossings. The border policy can therefore be summarised as:

* Vector A - North Empyrium, South Empyrium and East Empyrium
* Vector B - West Empyrium
* Vector C - Sanian Space
=== Holistic management of resources ===
Non-member systems that lie outside the Empyrean borders receive the same rights as those within, meaning colony worlds can be established on uninhabited planets. However, colonies are again universally disallowed ''within'' Empyrium borders, due to fears that a cluster of burgeoning planets could upset the balance of power and resources in the Collective, which has already been divided into sectors to allocate resources to systems or groups of systems. With regards to resource harvesting both within, outside and in colony areas of the Empyrium, a hands-off approach is taken for ''all'' planets deemed suitable for intelligent life, even those that do not possess intelligent life to begin with. This is due to a widely held philosophy of the "nurture principle" - that life should be allowed to develop at any stage, including before [[wikipedia:Abiogenesis|abiogenesis]].

== Regions ==
The Empyrium is divided into five symbolic regions, of which all but one used to have an administrative function before the introduction of the Imperial System.

=== West Empyrium ===
West Empyrium forms the bulk of what was once known as the Western Reaches. Its capital is [[Sentor]] in the Aquadist system.

=== South Empyrium ===
South Empyrium is the old heartland of the Empyrean species, and home to the ''de jure'' Imperial capital of [[Alkid]], which is also the joint-capital of this region along with [[Tsadenia]].

=== North Empyrium ===
North Empyrium is formed of what was once known as the Outer Rim Colonies and the eastern segment of the New Colonies. Its capital is [[Iophiuchi|Yoph Fiyakyi]].

=== East Empyrium ===
East Empyrium forms the central bulk of the collective. Its capital is [[Zandar]] in the Eleazar system.

=== Sanian Space ===
Sanian Space is the smallest, second most populous, and most densely populated region. It contains the [[San System|San system]] which itself holds roughly a third of the Empyrium's entire population. Within it is the planet [[San|San II]], the capital of this region and the ''de facto'' capital of the Empyrium.

=== Scattered Systems ===
An unofficial region comprising the planets over which the Empyrium has ''de facto'' control (see table above), as well as Hycenian Space. They are largely unpopulated except for researchers, and for all intensive purposes are managed from [[Eos]].{{CountryNavbox}}

The '''Plurinational Republic of Al'sawayid-Illa Sousania''' (''Arabic: الساڢاييد, Latin: Illa Sousania, IPA: elˈsəvaɪˈɪd iːlə səsanˈjə'') commonly shortened to (Republic of) '''Alsavaeid''', is a member republic of the [[Yatan-Theian Federation]], and formerly a sovereign state in its own right, located in northeastern [[Theia]]. It was founded by [[Yata|Yatan]] colonists primarily from [[Aparty]], and as such it is a cosmopolitan nation of Arab, [[Osania|Osanian]], mixed European and [[Theian Natives|indigenous Theian]] influences. The state is dominated by its capital and largest city - [[Alsavaeid City]]. The country occupies nearly the entire Sousania peninsula, as well as the islands of Isolaviola (''Volhi Akbar'') and Nova Carniola (''Volhi Aqalu''), and the remote archipelago of Isolacarne.

Alsavaeid, much like the rest of the Sousania region, was only sparsely populated by Theian natives prior to its establishment. The relative isolation from the rest of the continental landmass, especially due to the anomalously large estuary of the Savalon river, has been long considered by theographers as a reason for this. Alsavaeid borders an exclave of [[Republic of Sousania|Sousania]] to the southwest, [[Republic of North Keiria|North Keiria]] to the south and [[Eastern Baiame]] to the southeast.

Alsavaeid is a multi-ethnic polity that is culturally divided into nine regions, of which the two largest are Alarabiy and the Latinate. In the north of the country, Alarabiy and the Latinate follow the rough borders of initial claims on Sousania from Arab and European groups respectively, whereas in the south the distinction is more arbitrary. These two regions are culturally divided, with the Latinate speaking the official minority languages of French, Italian and Spanish, and Alarabiy speaking the official language, which is Arabic. Other than atheism, the most practiced religion in the Latinate is Catholicism whereas in Alarabiy it is Islam. The two regions are the only cultural divisons upheld in the constitution, describing them as "nations", "countries", or even "constituent states", but there is no political separation between the two. Despite Alarabiy holding the bulk of the population, the two nations are social cultural, and political equals, though there have been calls for a political distinction to be made.

The seven smaller cultural regions are predominantly Theian Native by contrast, though the extent to which Yatan influences have encroached upon their territories varies massively. Of these seven, four are Kanaran (Soikha, Ekheunikan, Khanhualit and Bienheuin), two are Baiamean (Tilakan and Ekkamat), and one is unique among native groups (Allaria).

Alsavaeid is divided into 47 entities, consisting of 41 provinces, 4 special cities (Alsavaeid City, Alkemet, Secundus and Al'qus), and 2 territories. 33 of these entities belong to Alarabiy and 14 of them, including all of the Insulari, are aligned with the Latinate. There is also a distinction between the founding provinces in the north, and the "new provinces" located south of the now-dissolved Alsavaeid Borderlands special territory (generally south of Hudud Territory). Alsavaeid is one of the most developed areas in the world, and is consistently ranked as one of the most globalised out of both Theian and Yatan countries. Mainly thanks to this and their status as one of its founders, they were selected to be the home of the administrative and judicial capital of the Yatan-Theian Federation in Alsavaeid City.

== Government ==
When it was sovereign, Alsavaeid was a parliamentary democracy with a elected president. The legislature, known as the Parliament was also elected by the people of the nation, whom often elected the [[Social Democratic Party of Alsavaeid]]. Once it became a member of the Federation its political model remained largely 'similar' to what it was when it was independent, maintaining a local unicameral parliament responsible for its internal affairs and appointing a representative to the upper house of the Yatan-Theian Parliament.

== History ==
Alsavaeid was founded in 254 by Arab colonists, primarily from [[Hayah]] and [[Aparty]], and European colonists, primarily from Yetia. The colonists formed a democratic society, which initially was under the nearby [[Osania]]'s protection under Alsavaeid was able to start its own military. In May 435 Alsavaeid became one of the founding states of the Theian Federation, becoming home to its capital despite being located so far to the east.

Due to its large population growth, there has been a recent resurgence in Theian Native population, heritage, and identity. This caused a shift from the traditional two-nation view of Alsavaeid (that is, Alsavaeid proper and Illa Sousania) to the modern nine-nation structure.

The '''Iujado'''<ref>pronounced /jəˈdʒɑːdaʊ/ (yoo-JA-doh)

''Iujado'': /eujaˈdɔ/</ref> (Exovir ''Ignota Anthocyana''), also known as '''Anthocyans''', are a subspecies of [[Theian Natives]] (making up a plurality of Theian Natives as a whole) that originate from the [[Aquilae|Aquilae region]] of [[Theia]]. Similar in build to an average human, Iujado have distinct baby pink to hot pink complexions produced by the pigment anthocyanin. This also makes Iujado skin cells highly flammable. The Iujado are the most diverse of the Theian Native subspecies, with three additional subsets (the [[Carotenes]], [[Bio-Iujado]], [[Mutajado]], and [[Titanian Iujado]]) being present among them. Bio-Iujado (Exoviro Ignota Anthocyanabiologia) are nearly identical to Ignota Anthocyana aside from sharing certain traits with [[The Biomass]] such as more malleable physical forms, while the Mutajado (Exovir Ignota Deformis) and Titanian Iujado (Exovir Ignota Titania) share even more similarities and are visibly much less humanoidf, with the only difference between the two being sapience (which is only present in the Titanians).

Originally thought to be a hostile race, the Iujado (under the influence of [[Nihilantis]],) colonised [[Yata]] during the [[SDS-004 "Scandimaro Sleeping Sickness"|Great Sleep]], but were [[Tritonia|fought out by the awoken humans]] around 34 CE. Since then, the Nihilist Iujado made many attempts to recolonise the planet, which ended up in the establishment of [[Cotunauinia]] and the Iujado's redemption as a species once the Nihilist situation was resolved. They are a highly intelligent species, more so than [[humans]], and can be found on [[Yata]] and Theia. However, due to their vulnerability to fire, they cannot live on [[Narakam]].

{{Heading|Welcome to the YATA Wiki!}}

== What is YATA? ==
'''YATA''' is a active roleplay/worldbuilding project primarily based in Discord and this Wiki, and formerly also on Minecraft. YATA progresses via 'news' events describing something that has happened, dialogue between characters or nations/organizations, via images depicting events, etc. At modern times the setting is a futuristic/sci-fi (This was not always the case, with sci-fi elements gradually starting in 2023) universe centred around the [[Milky Way Galaxy]], with the previous/original focus being in the '[[Alpha Sol System]]' which contains [[Yata]] (Earth under a different name) and [[Theia]] (a former rogue planet) as well as various other planets. On this page you can find important information, links to our other sites (Youtube, Discord, Cosmic Wiki), and recommended reading. The first page we would recommend reading is the [[Yata History Timeline]], especially its newer sections, to gain an understanding of the world.

=== What is this wiki? ===
This wiki was created to document the lore and history of YATA, due to all of the actual lore progressing on our [https://discord.gg/asEu5pBeKZ Discord Server]. Not everything is on the wiki yet of course, but much of the lore can already be found here. Lore either consists of nations, their history and their actions or Peoples lives within the Yata Universe. We have multiple discord channels for this purpose. General nation lore and miscellaneous stuff goes in News, Wars and the ensuing image spam form them goes in Wars, and lore regarding characters and their lives within the YATA universe goes in Character Lore, alongside these there are channels for extrasolar civilizations which do not have contact with the nation states of Yata.

=== ''"Why is (thing) on here?"'' ===
Across the timeline of YATA many people involved in making the lore have included various additions from other franchises they enjoy, which may explain some familiar topics and subjects.

=== Brief History ===
Yata was originally [[YATA Minecraft Server|Java Minecraft creative server]], created on the 25th August 2018 by [[User:Hakced|Hakced]]. Starting around October 2018 we started creating lore for it, with some worldbuilding and nations. This lore overtime expanded in scope, becoming a massive collaborative project. Since then, the Minecraft Server and Lore have been [[January 2023 Reforms|separated from each other]], in the process partly opening up the "lore" side of the community to anyone who follows the rules and wants to contribute.

== Important Details ==

=== How do I make an account? ===
In order to get an account on YATA Wiki, contact "[[User:Hakced|hakced]]" (Owner of the Wiki/Discord) on discord via either pinging or DMs and ask for an account alongside specifying the username you want, and in most cases you will be provided a password and username to log in. Afterwards, you will be able to change your password if you want.

=== How do I participate? ===
You can either fully forego the nation-RP segment and interact with the world thru groups or characters, or you can either create a new [[Countries/Extrasolar|Extrasolar]] or [[Countries/Skantos|Skantoan]] country, or alternatively ask for control over a nation on [[Countries/Yata|Yata]], [[Countries/Theia|Theia]], or another part of the [[Yatan-Theian Accord (495-Present)|Yatan-Theian Accord]] if you want a specifically [[Human]] or human-adjacent nation to control/worldbuild.

=== Lore/Wiki Rules ===

====== General Rules ======

# Be Respectful
# No Slurs
# No Racism/Homophobia/Transphobia/Xenophobia
# Don't be unnecessarily mean (Jokes among friends are fine, but bullying isn't.)
# Don't take enforcement of rules as a personal attack, it is simply to make Yata Lore more enjoyable.

====== Writing Rules ======

# Keep things consistent with the lore.
# Be fair, and keep things restrained to the expected power/technology level of the planet or area the nation resides in.
# Don't make overpowered characters without a proper reason for them to be so powerful. (Including actual power or just unreasonable proficiency with a task for no good reason.)
# Don't kill off other people's OCs instantly without permission. (Example; (Blank) kills (Blank) , instead of something like (Blank) shoots (Blank), leave it more ambiguous for the other person.)
# Keep stuff serious, and don't just make a bunch of meme nations or characters (You are allowed to have meme characters sure, but dont make them being a meme the only character trait.)
# Keep nation sizes and populations realistic to the species & time
# If people establish something in their lore, don't just go "actually my (blank) can/can't do that" actually try to follow it so the narrative makes more sense
# If people are doing a storyline, don't try to hijack it and force it to fit yours without permission.
# If someone has a closed story (as in only they write it) don't forcefully interject into it without permission.

====== Content Rules ======
Refrain from directly using copyrighted materials within the Wiki. Names or factions sharing names with pre-existing content is 'fine', but refrain from using copyrighted images on the wiki. You are able to link in images thru [[commons:Main_Page|Wikimedia Commons]] if you really want to use such content, but we would generally recommend that you or a friend design desired assets yourself. Additionally, using AI-generated assets is generally discouraged.

Primio

{{Planet|title1=Primio|image1=Primio.png|image2=Primiosurface2.jpg|system=[[Primio System]]|suns=1|rings=None|orbital position=1st (from [[Escorvax]])|rotation period=5.88 days|orbital period=22.6 hours|distance from yata=50,000 LY|galaxy=Milky Way|rim=Inner Rim|quadrant=Delta|grid coordinate=K9|class=Terrestrial|diameter=2721 km|atmosphere=Breathable|climate=Cold to temperate|primary terrain=Rocky|average surface temperature=6.61 degrees Celsius|demonym=Primian|immigrated species=[[Empyreans]]|population=31 million|affiliation=[[Empyrium]]}}

'''Primio'''<ref>pronounced (PRIM-ee-oh)</ref> is the only moon of the gas giant [[Escorvax]] - a planet in the [[Primio System|Primio system]] within the Inner Rim - and a regional capital world within the [[Empyrium]]. Along with it's planet, it orbits the [[Pearl Star]], an anomalous binary star system that, when in alignment, appears as a single pink star - much akin to the sheen of a pearl (to which it owes its name.) As a result, the otherwise icy blue planet is bathed in a very dim, reddish light, leading to many to call it the "Shadow Planet." It is the only terrestrial body in the system.

Primio is the only integrated member system within [[Universal Space]], a former autonomous subunit of [[Lesser Empyrium]] that was separated when Lesser Empyrium's hegemony drew to a close. Until a few centuries ago, Primio was the symbolic capital of the Empyrium because it hosted the [[Imperial Conference]], that was until hosting the conference became open to the highest bidder, and San otherwise became the dominant cultural centre. Since then, Primio has seen significant depopulation - its 31 million inhabitants makes the system the least populated integrated member of the Empyrium. However, since it is a free system, it is still remarkably wealthy - the moon is a well-known destination for its high culture, quiet lifestyle, and for unique views of the Pearl Star.

It has been long argued whether Primio's position within a "Universal Space" is tenable nowadays, since it has little function in that regard. The nature of the Universal Space is a contentious topic - it is unknown why it was established as a subunit of the Lesser Empyrium and why it persists as a region in its own right. Furthermore, in a region densely populated with main-sequence stars, its only integrated member system's only populated place is a moon that is, in itself, on the borderlines of what is considered inhabitable. This has given rise to myriad conspiracy theories, and some regard "the Primio conundrum" as a well-known aspect of the collective Empyrean folk legend

A voidspace lane between Primio and an unknown planet called Thrallix is a well-established legend on the planet.

The Alpha Sol System<ref>Formerly known by its inhabitants as "The Solar System" or the "Yata System"</ref> is a star system found Greater [[Sol System]], a trinary star system in [[Astrography|Grid]] N19 of which [[Alpha Sol]] is the largest. The Alpha Sol System is the cradle of [[Humanity]], as it is the point of origin for the nowadays influential species, which has spread across the entire system and beyond.

A majority of the system's population is centred on [[Yata]] and [[Theia]], while other celestial bodies such as [[Narakam]]<ref>One of the only non-human majority planets within the system.</ref> and [[Titan]] also have significant populations. Most other celestial bodies, alongside the [[Interplanetary Network]]<ref>Alpha Sol's Space Station Network</ref> have smaller, yet still notable populations.

=== The Inner System ===
The Inner System is the most populated region of the Alpha Sol System, housing [[Mercury]], [[Venus]], Narakam, Yata, [[Kanashi]], and [[Mars]]. All of these worlds (except Mercury) are inhabited to some degree, ranging from the multiple billions of peoples living on Yata and Theia, and the millions of others residing on the other worlds and the spacestations within the region. Due to the sheer density of inhabited spacestations, settled worlds, and people, the Inner System is the heart of the entire [[Yatan-Theian Accord]].

=== The Outer System ===
From [[Jupiter]] onwards, the Outer System is where the defined and cohesive boundaries seen within the Inner System begin to fade. This region is dominated by several different interplanetary governments, corporate outposts and stations, commercial operations, alongside military outposts. In parts of the Outer System governments essentially lack influence due to the lack of care or importance, leading to the influence of corporations being dominant in much of the Outer System.

Beyond [[Saturn]] the population sharply drops even more, with less people than some of the smallest [[Countries|terrestrial states]] of Yata or Theia permanently live out here. While still some organized pockets of population exist out here, a majority of the celestial bodies out here uninhabited.
