The Holy Valencian Empire

The Holy Valencian Empire is built on Three Powers: The Church, the Government, and the Military. The Church provides direction, the government provides structure, and the Military provides order. The Brotherhood of Jaegers, while not part of the Imperial heirarchy, are vital to the stability of the Empire and therefore called the Fourth Power. The Empire rules nearly the entire continent of Pamant, except the Valief Runda and the Thardhir Territory.

The Holy Church of Valencia
The Holy Church of Valencia provides the vision for the empire to move forward. They worship a triad of gods: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Mother, Valencia. The head of the Church, the Pope, provides leadership

The Government
Without a good structure, empires tend to fall under the strain of their own weight. That's not to say that the Valencian Government structure is actually a good one. For the most part, the government is concerned with economic and political stability (usually only for the elite). The common people do not deal much with the actual empire, so long as they tithe and pay taxes, the empire is content to allow towns and most cities exist without much interference.

The Military
Any good Empire needs a strong, disciplined military. Valencia has managed to develop an incredibly powerful military force which has a presence in every corner of the continent. The Military is divided into two Branches: The Army and the Navy. The Army is spread throughout the continent, having one main base in each province except Ifritous.

Brotherhood of Jaegers
Jaegers arose when the Paladins proved too straightforward in their methods against the horrors of Pamant.
