	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.

	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.

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 ~~Iophiuchi~~. 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.
