==Introduction==

The Democratic Republik of Han Khan is a rising power of the Anno galaxy. Originally just one of many nations on a single planet, with little tek available beyond swords, the Han Khan people encountered a large amount of intergalactik tek, which allowed their nation to take a rapid leap forward in a matter of months, achieving space travel and conquering many near by star systems.

==One Fleet==

Following the conquest of nearby space, the Han Khan government began construction on a battlegroup known as "One Fleet," which serves as the primary navy for the Han Khan military machine, and has helped them colonize and incorporate numerous worlds.
Construction of a proposed "Two fleet" is currently under consideration by the galaxy.

==Government==

===The Ruling Council===
The Han Khan is led by a ruling council of 14 members and the Prime minister, they are elected by the legislative body, and their votes cast the final arbitration on any legislation that is given to them. The council's headquarters is located in the Nation's capitol. The Prime Minister is the public face of the Nation, it is the Prime Minister's job to set the Nation's agenda, as well as holding a tie breaking vote.

===The Legislative body===
The Legislative body meets in a massive space station which orbits the Han Khan capitol planet. It consists of Legislators sent to represent every planet within the Han Khan sphere of influence. Fully incorporated planets receive one legislator for every 100 million planetary inhabitants, these legislators are appointed by popular vote on the planets which they represent. Planets which are not yet fully incorporated into the Nation, receive a token two legislators, appointed by the ruling council. Legislators meet once a week, where they propose new legislation, and bills are voted on. If a bill passes, it is presented to the ruling council.

===The Diplomatic Council===
Based in a large mobile space station, the diplomatic council helps ease the process of incorporating new worlds. The Space station is usually moved onto the border of Han Khan space, and the Nation currently employs over 100 thousand diplomats. Although the Han Khan have had very limited contact with other Interstellar factions, the Diplomatic council was set up in order to help ease these dealings.

{{Category|Factions and Forces}}

Many factions and civilizations exist in the [[BrikVerse]]. Here, they are organized relative story function. There may be some overlap in concept. Where Factions are not yet fully realized on the wiki and given their own pages, they should appear in the [[Big List of Countries]]. Factions in BrikWars can generally be described in one or more of three different ways. Toybox Factions are factions that are significantly represented by real, physical toys. StoryBrik Factions are factions that have accumulated [[Kanon]] through [[BrikFiction]], [[Battle Reports]], [[Forum Battles]], and the like. StoryBook Factions, or BrikFic Factions, are factions that are significantly represented by abstract art, such as BrikFiction, digital construction programs and artwork, or physical artwork. Certain construction programs, like LDD, straddle the line between the last two descriptions because some players believe it is firmly a work of fiction and others believe it is a completely viable construction tool. It will become apparent how factions may be described as one browses the Factions and Forces articles. Factions are also typically described as player created or generic. Player created factions are created and maintained by BrikWarriors. As such, they typically have much more detailed stories and characters. Generic factions are factions that have sprung up usually through collaboration on the community's part. Generic factions are not "owned" by any specific player. BrikWarriors are generally respectful of these boundaries but crossover control is exceedingly common. After all, much in the BrikVerse is governed by [[Open Sores Material]] policy.

They are here organized first by Category and then by relative size and importance.

== Factions by Category ==

''Factions are often related to one another via a number of means. They may be enemies or allies, grouped together by geographic location (such as all the factions belonging to a particular world), part of a Storyline, or even grouped by a strong, central theme. Such factions usually maintain some form of meaningful contact with one another, though this is not always the case. Each page presented below will describe the grouping as a whole and detail which of the above factions are associated with it. The individual faction pages below will also likely detail their various and sundry associations.''

=Brief Overview=

Space Austria is a [[peach]]-centric Archduchy with a sizable infantry and mechanized force, conceived in late [[BR 2,015]], the Space Austrians became a part of the [[forum]] in mid-[[BR 2,017]]. They have been involved in several battles, including much of the the [[Magikalennic War]]

=Topography=

The Empire of Space Austria is broken up into 5 sectors, or "Star districts" as they are better known,they are as follows:

Sector 1: This area is known for its sumptuous wealth and power, it is the home of Vienna II, which serves as the primary shipyard for the SA's navy, as well as the planet known as Vienna I, the location of which is left undisclosed. Visitors describe Vienna I as a place of immense beauty, with great highways connecting compact cities of skyscrapers and endless seas of grass. Vienna I serves as the head of the SA's government, and the location of many of its greatest minds, as well as being a sanctuary for high ranking political refugees. Vienna I also serves as the location of the SA's R&D headquarters. Vienna I is home to around 100 million minifigs, nearly all of them employees of the state, and although only around 5% of the planet's surface is populated, 97% of the people there live in the densely populated cities.
Sector 1 also serves as the Empire's financial hub, however all of the large businesses in sector 1, including the rapidly growing South Roman Financial institution are enterprises of the state. Privately run businesses however, are found in the poorer sectors.

Sector 2: Sector 2 serves as the center of the SA military, including the Capitol and home of the Imperial palace. (Sprawling residence of the imperial couple); Orchard. Sector 2 is also home to the planet Vienna III, which is one of the more exposed planets in the SA domain, having near Autonomy in the region, Vienna III has its own military and parliament, however it is still very much a part of the SA's Empire.
Sector 2 is the most sparsely populated Sector in the empire.

Sector 3: The most populous sector in the empire, also home to the largest number of Non-peach citizens. Sector 3 is also the location of High Fort, one of two military bastions, in which survivors of a cataclysmic event could seek shelter, both forts have enough resources and a large enough garrison to withstand a constant assault from a Tek 6 or lower civilization almost indefinitely, they are considered impregnable to anything but black hole missiles. Sector 3 is also the location of plane StraussBurg, a massive city planet, which has seen decades of cultural mixing, as it is heavily populated by immigrants from the USSSR, whose culture can be prominently seen there.

Sector 4: Often referred 2 as the "Crisis Sector" Sector 4 has primarily become a sanctuary for peach immigrants seeking a safe haven from oppression elsewhere in the Galaxy. The government is currently trying to increase its presence in sector 4, however current Burgomaster Stephen Katz argues that the flow of immigrants should be stopped. Although Katz has support from many of the predominantly Yellow systems, he has found little favor in the upper levels of government.

Sector 5: sector 5 is the most heavily militarized sector of the Empire, as there is a constant fear of Galacian or Soviet attack. Nearly every planet there has some form of military outpost or garrison. Although nearly all citizens of the Empire live a fairly standard Upper middle class lifestyle, with advanced Tek and medicine, poverty is most Acutely felt in Sector 5, ans much of the infrastructure, often left over from Soviet occupation is damaged or in disrepair, and the Government's welfare, which provides the primary source of income for non government personnel* has been less effective there. The current establishment looks to improve conditions in Sector 5, however, until the Galacian threat is culled, that is unlikely to change.
Sector 5 is also the home of the other Military Bastion, Low Fort, which serves as a sister to High fort, as well as a refuge in the event of an attack from the Galacians or Soviet powers.

*(All Soldiers, Sector 1 workers, Mediks, Government officials, and scientists are considered to be government personnel.)

=History=

==The Rising Phoenix==
No one knows when or why the [[Deadly Spacemen]] showed up; they just appeared one day. There had been almost no [[life]] in that area beforehand, but that all changed when the Spacemen brought the seed of [[destruction]] to these empty worlds.

The spacemen ruled for many eons, but the cracks inevitably began to show through. With the fall of the original spacemen, the now unoccupied and chaotic territory was claimed by "rising" Phoenix [[Hapsbrik]], conqueror of a million worlds, and the first in the infamous Hapsbrik line.

Phoenix disappeared one day, leaving his kingdom to be split among his kin, and eventually forming many countries, among them, the Archduchy of Space Austria. (Many believe that Phoenix still lives, and shall someday return at the "coming of the third siege.")

==War and Defeat==
The Space Austrians steadily grew in power, claiming much territory (most of which is now in [[Soviet]] hands), and formed the Paladin guards, a standing army to defend their lands. They later joined the [[Holy Briks league]], and served dutifully along with the (future) [[Unified Republik Poland]], [[Hungarian]]s, [[Holy Roman]]s, and others. Perhaps their most notable victories during this time were their involvements in the war of Austrian Successes, as well as their two victories over the [[AUTO-man]] droid Turks, in the sieges of planet [[Vienna]] ( in which they were heavily aided by the Polish.)

Following the second siege, Space Austria formed a union with the Hungarians, forming the empire of Space Austria Hungary. The joint empire controlled a vast portion of the galaxy, but these good times were not to last. When Archduke Franz Ferdibrik was shot and killed, the empire declared war on the space-Serbs, leading to war with the future [[USSSR]]. And although the Austria-Hungarians experienced initial successes, they were eventually defeated and forced to surrender most of their territory. Unable to maintain a large army, the Space Austrians were nearly ruined, but then, [[fate]] played its cruel hand.

The weak [[Archduke Bob]], having no other choice, surrendered all of his resources to the [[Intergakactik Fascist Alliance]] (many [[Bavarian]] troopers that took part in the [[AN-TA War]] were Space Austrians). But worse yet, with tek supplied by the [[Immortal]]s, thousands of Peaches were rounded up for slaughter.

==The Orchard Revolution==
With the ending of the war, the Space Austrian Reich was pushed back to the planet of [[Old Vienna]], and its one moon, [[Orchard]].

Orchard was the "holding cell" for around 50 million Austrian [[Peaches]], and all semblance of government fell apart on Old Vienna during the Communi-Fascist insurgence. At its lowest low, radical change began.

[[Ato Hapsbrik]], rightful heir to Space Austria, lived a politically active life on Orchard. His family had been excluded from politics ever since they had bred with peach minifigures, but Ato's claim to the throne was still far more significant than anyone else's. Ato began going from town to town, preaching revolt, and the creation of a new, and fair state. Ato was aided by a resentful [[Assyrian]] [[Peach]] named [[Von Ernst]], who aided him in organizing the [[Burgher]]s, an all-peach official military force.

When guards cane from Old Vienna on transport ships, the burghers seized them. Ship after ship was sent to arrest the insurgents, only to be captured. One day, the Burghers attacked Old Vienna with all of the captured transports they had. The planet put up little resistance, and Ato ascended to the throne.

==Return of the Hapsbriks==
Ato set right to work reforming the government. He returned the Reich to its Archduchial state, and imposed a parliamentary system, supported by a loyal populace and a powerful intergalactik army. Ato then began to reclaim the land he once lost. He took a [[wife]] (who is probably a much better [[leader]] than he is) and began invading system after system, returning the Empire back to a healthy 3,000 or so worlds spread around about 300 systems. Once he was sure that he had enough power to make himself visible, Ato requested an [[alliance]] with the RC, which was highly successful.

In more recent events, the space Austrians fought several battles over an ancient [[superweapon]], and attempted to destroy the galaxy's [[financial]] heart. Though the attempt was thwarted, the Space Austrians showed that they meant business. (The possibility of war between the SA and the [[Trattorians]] is still high, but lack of available forces on both sides may lead to the conflict quieting.)

Following this, the Space Austrians pursued friendship with the [[Darkstorm Empire]], which gives them the opportunity to improve trade, as well as study the [[dark forces]] and their [[power]].

The Space Austrians have been involved in several other [[conflicts]], and continue their dominance as a powerful empire, and a force to be reckoned with.

==Recent History==
As of late the Space Austrians have continued to play a forward role in politiks.

==Space Fleet==

The Space Austrian Empire currently maintains four main fleets, High fleet, which is used to defend the Eastern Border, The Low Fleet, which is used to defend the Southern border, The War Fleet, which is garrisoned around Vienna II and is used to defend the Space Austrian Homeland, and finally, Home fleet, which is the largest, and remains dormant in orbit around Vienna I. High fleet's sole purpose is to defend the Space Austrian Capitol from attack. The Flagship and pride of the fleet is the ''High Vienna'' The largest ship in the Space Austrian arsenal and also doubles as a super carrier capable of transporting hundreds of fighters.
Their ships Have powerful shields, as well as numerous laser cannons and a massive rack of missiles.

=Brief Overview=

Space Austria is a [[peach]]-centric Archduchy with a sizable infantry and mechanized force, conceived in late [[BR 2,015]], the Space Austrians became a part of the [[forum]] in mid-[[BR 2,017]]. They have been involved in several battles, including much of the the [[Magikalennic War]]

=Topography=

The Empire of Space Austria is broken up into 5 sectors, or "Star districts" as they are better known,they are as follows:

Sector 1: This area is known for its sumptuous wealth and power, it is the home of Vienna II, which serves as the primary shipyard for the SA's navy, as well as the planet known as Vienna I, the location of which is left undisclosed. Visitors describe Vienna I as a place of immense beauty, with great highways connecting compact cities of skyscrapers and endless seas of grass. Vienna I serves as the head of the SA's government, and the location of many of its greatest minds, as well as being a sanctuary for high ranking political refugees. Vienna I also serves as the location of the SA's R&D headquarters. Vienna I is home to around 100 million minifigs, nearly all of them employees of the state, and although only around 5% of the planet's surface is populated, 97% of the people there live in the densely populated cities.
Sector 1 also serves as the Empire's financial hub, however all of the large businesses in sector 1, including the rapidly growing South Roman Financial institution are enterprises of the state. Privately run businesses however, are found in the poorer sectors.

Sector 2: Sector 2 serves as the center of the SA military, including the Capitol and home of the Imperial palace. (Sprawling residence of the imperial couple); Orchard. Sector 2 is also home to the planet Vienna III, which is one of the more exposed planets in the SA domain, having near Autonomy in the region, Vienna III has its own military and parliament, however it is still very much a part of the SA's Empire.
Sector 2 is the most sparsely populated Sector in the empire.

Sector 3: The most populous sector in the empire, also home to the largest number of Non-peach citizens. Sector 3 is also the location of High Fort, one of two military bastions, in which survivors of a cataclysmic event could seek shelter, both forts have enough resources and a large enough garrison to withstand a constant assault from a Tek 6 or lower civilization almost indefinitely, they are considered impregnable to anything but black hole missiles. Sector 3 is also the location of plane StraussBurg, a massive city planet, which has seen decades of cultural mixing, as it is heavily populated by immigrants from the USSSR, whose culture can be prominently seen there.

Sector 4: Often referred 2 as the "Crisis Sector" Sector 4 has primarily become a sanctuary for peach immigrants seeking a safe haven from oppression elsewhere in the Galaxy. The government is currently trying to increase its presence in sector 4, however current Burgomaster Stephen Katz argues that the flow of immigrants should be stopped. Although Katz has support from many of the predominantly Yellow systems, he has found little favor in the upper levels of government.

Sector 5: sector 5 is the most heavily militarized sector of the Empire, as there is a constant fear of Galacian or Soviet attack. Nearly every planet there has some form of military outpost or garrison. Although nearly all citizens of the Empire live a fairly standard Upper middle class lifestyle, with advanced Tek and medicine, poverty is most Acutely felt in Sector 5, ans much of the infrastructure, often left over from Soviet occupation is damaged or in disrepair, and the Government's welfare, which provides the primary source of income for non government personnel* has been less effective there. The current establishment looks to improve conditions in Sector 5, however, until the Galacian threat is culled, that is unlikely to change.
Sector 5 is also the home of the other Military Bastion, Low Fort, which serves as a sister to High fort, as well as a refuge in the event of an attack from the Galacians or Soviet powers.

*(All Soldiers, Sector 1 workers, Mediks, Government officials, and scientists are considered to be government personnel.)

=History=

==The Rising Phoenix==
No one knows when or why the [[Deadly Spacemen]] showed up; they just appeared one day. There had been almost no [[life]] in that area beforehand, but that all changed when the Spacemen brought the seed of [[destruction]] to these empty worlds.

The spacemen ruled for many eons, but the cracks inevitably began to show through. With the fall of the original spacemen, the now unoccupied and chaotic territory was claimed by "rising" Phoenix [[Hapsbrik]], conqueror of a million worlds, and the first in the infamous Hapsbrik line.

Phoenix disappeared one day, leaving his kingdom to be split among his kin, and eventually forming many countries, among them, the Archduchy of Space Austria. (Many believe that Phoenix still lives, and shall someday return at the "coming of the third siege.")

==War and Defeat==
The Space Austrians steadily grew in power, claiming much territory (most of which is now in [[Soviet]] hands), and formed the Paladin guards, a standing army to defend their lands. They later joined the [[Holy Briks league]], and served dutifully along with the (future) [[Unified Republik Poland]], [[Hungarian]]s, [[Holy Roman]]s, and others. Perhaps their most notable victories during this time were their involvements in the war of Austrian Successes, as well as their two victories over the [[AUTO-man]] droid Turks, in the sieges of planet [[Vienna]] ( in which they were heavily aided by the Polish.)

Following the second siege, Space Austria formed a union with the Hungarians, forming the empire of Space Austria Hungary. The joint empire controlled a vast portion of the galaxy, but these good times were not to last. When Archduke Franz Ferdibrik was shot and killed, the empire declared war on the space-Serbs, leading to war with the future [[USSSR]]. And although the Austria-Hungarians experienced initial successes, they were eventually defeated and forced to surrender most of their territory. Unable to maintain a large army, the Space Austrians were nearly ruined, but then, [[fate]] played its cruel hand.

The weak [[Archduke Bob]], having no other choice, surrendered all of his resources to the [[Intergakactik Fascist Alliance]] (many [[Bavarian]] troopers that took part in the [[AN-TA War]] were Space Austrians). But worse yet, with tek supplied by the [[Immortal]]s, thousands of Peaches were rounded up for slaughter.

==The Orchard Revolution==
With the ending of the war, the Space Austrian Reich was pushed back to the planet of [[Old Vienna]], and its one moon, [[Orchard]].

Orchard was the "holding cell" for around 50 million Austrian [[Peaches]], and all semblance of government fell apart on Old Vienna during the Communi-Fascist insurgence. At its lowest low, radical change began.

[[Ato Hapsbrik]], rightful heir to Space Austria, lived a politically active life on Orchard. His family had been excluded from politics ever since they had bred with peach minifigures, but Ato's claim to the throne was still far more significant than anyone else's. Ato began going from town to town, preaching revolt, and the creation of a new, and fair state. Ato was aided by a resentful [[Assyrian]] [[Peach]] named [[Von Ernst]], who aided him in organizing the [[Burgher]]s, an all-peach official military force.

When guards cane from Old Vienna on transport ships, the burghers seized them. Ship after ship was sent to arrest the insurgents, only to be captured. One day, the Burghers attacked Old Vienna with all of the captured transports they had. The planet put up little resistance, and Ato ascended to the throne.

==Return of the Hapsbriks==

Ato then began to reclaim the land he once lost. He took a [[wife]] (who is probably a much better [[leader]] than he is) and began invading system after system, returning the Empire back to a healthy 3,000 or so worlds spread around about 300 systems. Once he was sure that he had enough power to make himself visible, Ato requested an [[alliance]] with the RC, which was highly successful.

(The possibility of war between the SA and the [[Trattorians]] is still high, but lack of available forces on both sides may lead to the conflict quieting.)

Following this, the Space Austrians pursued friendship with the [[Darkstorm Empire]], which gives them the opportunity to improve trade, as well as study the [[dark forces]] and their [[power]].

The Space Austrians have been involved in several other [[conflicts]], and continue their dominance as a powerful empire, and a force to be reckoned with.

==The Plan==
White Hart [[Galacian]] is the name of secret plan to end the [[Galacian Civil War]] in one fell swoop.

Galacian [[Field Marshall Shugla]] invited several leaders of factions which with [[Galacia]] is at war, including Count Von Schnapps of [[South Galacia]], Prinz Bohemond of [[Volhinya]], [[Emperor Ato]] of [[Space Austria]], The Hammed the High Militant of the [[Peach Brotherhood]], and [[Ibeus Pendragon]] of the [[Imperial Magikstrate]]. The field Marshall feigned truce in order to ease his enemies into a false sense of security, they were separated from their entourages, and stripped of all lazer weapons. then trapped all five men in a Galacian outpost.

Shugla planned to flood the room with poisonous gas, but Prinz Bohemond pulled a handgun and shot the Field Marshall in the chest.

Shugla survived his injuries, but he was unable to give the signal that would release the gas, meanwhile his enemies drew bullet-weapons in the meeting room, Ibeus noticed a secret exit, and the 5 leaders began fighting for their lives through the base

Gold Sector Conflict

2017-09-20T00:05:14Z

Archduke:

The '''Galacian Civil War''' is a massive cluster[[fuck]] of warring factions in the [[Gold Sector]]. It started pretty much immediately after the [[Great Elkossian Peach War]] ended, as cut-off Colonies in the system declared their own [[independence]]. By the time the Capital had regained the strength to restore its dominion, these new states were unwilling to fall in line and [[violent]]ly resisted, although these [[faction]]s did not come into conflict until [[BR 2,013]] - [[BR 2,014]] as most were focused on re[[building]] up until that period. [[Elkoss]] especially was tasked with wrestling back control of its own homeworld from [[Peach]] remnants and hordes of [[raider]]s in the lawless zones after the great war.

The initial combatants of the civil war were the [[Galacian]] capital Elkoss and its surrounding systems, the [[Volhinyan Kynazdom]] in the north who claimed to be the true Empire due to a vague ancestral tie to the now dead royal families of the 1st Empire, and the [[Mozorovan Social Union]], a [[communist]] puppet state that was propped up in the west during the power vacuum.

During its war with the Communists, the Galacians heavily [[tax]]ed the resource rich southern systems to fund the war effort. [[Businessmen]] and [[citizen]]s alike compared this to the actions of the [[Brittanian]]s against their colonies in present day [[USA]], cried foul, and began withholding taxes. When the [[government]] cracked down and started [[kill]]ing and imprisoning [[minifig]]s, they fought back.

Originally in the [[Zaphor]] system and then as the government was spread thin, these southern [[rebel]]s would take control of several systems. As the communists faltered, these roughnecks would become the primary adversary of the Loyalists until [[BR 2,015]] - [[BR 2,016]]. Originally fighting to make a state separate from the Galacians, during the [[1st Republik]] the southern rebels would become shocked at [[President Tesarik]] and his government's treatment of peaches. The south had no real qualms against peaches as they did not fall victim to the genocidal war that the north had. For a time the rebel's cause was that of "fighting against [[evil]]" and fighting to end [[slave]]ry.

After the Tesarik government was defeated in the ballot room a more moderate president, [[Lahey]] took power. He ended the slavery and death camps and the rebels were left with a dilemma in not really knowing what they fought for, they then continued to fight against the Elkoss government on grounds that they had just become too different. By now the USA had become a major influence on the Zaphor centered proto-state.

After the 2nd Republik was brought to a swift end at the hands of [[Marshal Shulga]], the Confederacy as it was now known, received a wave of both foreign support from the USA and volunteers in the form of [[refugee]]s from the 2nd Empire. [[Democracy]] as a way of [[life]] was over in Galacia. While the populace was still very much cared for and things were not at all as severe at first thought, many roughnecks and [[redneck]]s felt insulted at the very principle, and the Confederacy continued its fight against the capital, this time to restore "[[Freedom]]."

== '''Strategical Breakdown''' ==

While the Cluster as a whole is considered to be in a state of Civil war, the conflict is actually three seperate engagements that have little to nothing to do with one another.

'''Southern Front'''

[[File:EKDFlag.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:EKDFlag2.png|60px]]

Considered to be the principal warzone of the conflict, The southern front is a slugfest between Imperiya forces battling against the South Galacian rebels who took up arms after the Shulga Coup, This front is largely a stalemate as loyalist forces are unwilling to commit the resources necessary to evict confederate positions along the frontline, The Rebel navy is smaller in number but have placed many defenses along their borders that would make any Imperial assault a costly one. However on the worlds where ground wars are in progess, the theatre is characterized by heavy fighting in ruined urban areas, and light guerilla warfare in the areas outside the cities.

'''Northern Front'''

[[File:VK2.jpg|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:EKDFlag.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:GTSFlag.jpeg|60px]]

The northern front is the smallest of the three conflicts, seen as a land grab by the upstart Volhinyan Kynazdom, fighting against both the religious extremists of the Trianglist cult, and the Loyalist foces based out of the Caspian and Kamchatkan systems. The fighting in the north is considerably tamer than in the south, Mainly a counter insurgency operation by the Volhinyans against the Trianglists after they seized Outer Haven, with occasional clashes with Loyalist troops.

'''Western Front''' AKA "The Wild West"

[[File:EKDFlag.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:MOTAFlag.png|60px]],[[File:Syndikat.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:Pbh.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:Chedaki.png|60px]]

Less of a direct military conflict, and more along the lines of perpetual anarchy, the Western front consists of several groups fighting each other in the wake of the fall of the Mozorovan Socialist Union, Militant Peach extremists terrorize the region, Ultranationalist Galacian defectors rise to combat them, Syndikat thugs terrorize the civilian populace and Communist stragglers refuse to surrender, all while Imperiya forces struggle to stomp out a thousand fires in this devastated region.

'''External Conflicts'''

[[File:EKDFlag.png|60px]],[[File:Emerian Flag (Official).png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:Space Flag-clean.png|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:Empirelogo.PNG|60px]], [[File:Imperial Magikstrate Flag.png|60px]], [[File:Flag2.JPG|60px]] '''vs''' [[File:SovietFlagImage.jpg|60px]]

The Galacian Imperiya is involved in a number of wars with foreign, sovereign empires and from time to time their conflicts may overlap with the civil war.

Discovered by [[The Overvbearer]] in BR 2,017, the Peach virus is an incurable disease that attacks the ABS pigment in an infected minifig's skin, effectively making them into a [[Peach]] mutation. ( the Peach Virus cannot cause physical harm to a minifig, besides mild blistering of the face, and has no effect on [[minifigs]] that are already peaches. It was forts weaponized by [[Space Austria]] during [[Operation Schadenfreude]], in which soldiers attached battery canisters containing the pathogen to a failing generator. When the generator exploded, the virus escaped on a larger (but not a galactik pandemic) scale, and its current effect remains unknown.

==The Darkstorm Saga==

(courtesy of TheAtomikPunk)
Once upon a time, in B.R. 1977, when the Deadly SpaceMen began to invade the brikverse, they came across one planet that intrigued them. Minifigs, not protofig or DSM, inhabited this planet. "How could this be possible?" they wondered. They invaded anyway. As they always do, they conquered this planet as well. However, the Minifigs all put up one hell of a fight. While they did so, one scientist (a mad one, though all scientists are mad, especially when they can't get a grant) devised a way to defeat the DSMs invading their planet. He worked endlessly, concocting solutions and potions, mixtures and venoms, until he one day mixed certain ABS (still unknown to this day which they were) and it began to vibrate. Soon it vibrated so quickly the vial it was in shattered. The scientist didn't know what to do - so he put the substance in another container. That one too ruptured. One day, when the scientist approached the substance that had broken his last vial, he decided that whatever he had created, it would be useful as a weapon. So, as any warlike minifig would, he scooped it up in his hand and ran out the door of his lab. As the substance vibrated, the scientist felt his hands do so as well. Suddenly, the substance simply absorbed into the minifig's hand! He suddenly felt disoriented, and stumbled to the ground. He soon awoke, but with a strange feeling of power inside of him. He suddenly was startled as huge laser blasts scream over his head. The deadly spacemen are coming! he thought to humself. He got up and began to run toward his lab to grab a weapon, but he stopped after a few studs. He thought to himself, although feeling quite irrational, that he wouldn't need a weapon. But that's absurd! he thought. Ignoring his better judgement, the scientist follows his instinct to run over the hill where the blasts came from. As he did, he came face-to-face with several Deadly SpaceMen.

Without even thinking, he lifted his hands, releasing a burst of black energy, causing the DSM to writhe around on the ground, violently at first, then slower, then not. A black tint shaded the DSM's face as it died. The other two attacked the minifig, to no avail. The gunfire and sword slashes had no affect on him- he kept on shooting bursts of this mysterious energy at the DSMs, blackening them with ease. Finally! he thought to himself - finally, I have devised a weapon to destroy these invaders! He realized the potential of this weapon- invincibility, the ability to kill DSM in one shot- this could be the end of the war.

As he valiantly attacked DSM ships, destroying equipment and DSM alike, he faced more and more Deadly SpaceMen. After much time and many DSM dead, he suddenly was hit by a different kind of weapon- one that doesn't bounce off of him. Crying out in pain, he fell to the ground. He quickly realized that he couldn't move- at all. The Deadly SpaceMen, unable to kill this new creation, used a special weapon to neutralize the threat. They compress the molecular structure and locked him-or it- into a small cylinder and send it deep into space. It was never seen again...until...one day...on the S.S.A. Hyperion...

...on the S.S.A. Hyperion. The ship was on a routine patrol of the Alehi sector of their space.
While on patrol, the ship encountered a small cylinder floating through space.
Because protocol was nonexistent there at that time, the captain proceeded to order to teleport the object into the teleport room. An officer went to investigate. Suddenly there was a small explosion - the cylinder spattered a black goo over the inside of the room.The officer came out of the room, both slightly disgusted and slightly intrigued.
"I'm fine guys. I don't know what that stuff was. I'll have to clea- *cough* *COUGH*
The officer was overtaken by the black goo, which was the scientist from many years ago.
"FINALLY! I AM RELEASED FROM MY PRISON! I SHALL KILL YOU ALL!!!!"
He reaches out and touches the officer next to him. He too began to blacken to the figure of the strange new black monster.
Both ominous figures turned to face the remaining crew. A short battle ensued, but the crew never stood a chance. The captain also fell to the dark figures.

The capture of the Hyperion caused S.S.A headquarters to be alerted. They then dispatched two dragonfly-class interceptors to either retake or destroy the ship. However they would not succeed. Two of the infected crew teleported onto the fighters and infected the pilots. The three space craft then entered formation and headed towards Nexus 001
Within a few hours, a transmission was sent to the Hyperion.
-Begin Transmission-
"This is Archsentinel Hasdiel. I order you to stand down and surrender all stolen vessels to the authority of the Syndicate Star Alliance immediately!"
"NO."
Your noncompliance will be disastrous for you. Please reconsider."
"NEVER! I AM DARKSTORM!!!"

-End Transmission-

After some time passed, and the Hyperion had conquered more and more ships and figures, the small fleet arrived at Nexus 001, where the central government of the S.S.A. is stationed. As the station's defenses kicked in, Darkstorm beamed all of his warriors along with him onto the station. The Hyperion was quickly destroyed, along with the remaining ships. The station's internal sensors detected the beam-in, but couldn't find any lifesigns. A defense squad was dispatched to find Darkstorm and his infected warriors but they were soon infected as well.
Later on the bridge of Nexus 001...
An officer ran into the room. "Archsentinel, I have a very important message for you
"Yes?" the Archsentinel replies.
The officer threw a glob of black goo onto the ground. Slowly, a figure arose from the ground.
"HAHAHAHAHAH! DID YOU MISS ME?!?!
One guard raised his gun to meet Darkstorm. But before he could even pull the trigger, the guard behind him blew his head off.
Quite quickly a battle ensued, with the remaining guards revealing they had already been turned.
One of the alien officers was able to shoot lightning from his hands he charged an attack and he discharged it on the black body of the messenger, who was already fully turned. The messenger doubled over in pain, then collapsed onto the floor.
Darkstorm again used his powers to attack the golden knight.
The alien again charges his energy, and discharges towards Darkstorm. He just quickly realized that he is being shot at and, in an act of pure ninja-like reflexes, dodged two bolts of lightning after they were fired not ten studs from him.
The guard, no longer tied up with attacking the golden knight, shot the energy alien. Darkstorm walked over away from the scene of battle for a moment, then began to hold out his hands. Like a snake of the night, a form slithers around his hands only to stretch out, molding itself into a long cylinder. The surface appeared as smooth as a gentle pond, undisturbed by the wind. Suddenly, other objects formed on and around the cylinder. Darkstorm takes his new gun and points it directly at the Archsentinel-Then, in a brilliant flash of OTC light, blew the Archsentinel to bits.

Later, the dark lord went to multiple factions offering exactly what each one wanted.

SPOILER: HIDE
Aboard the Black September:

Captain Edward Morgan plans his next voyage..
A strange black substance seeps in the open window..
A black figure materializes from the goo
"Now now, is that anyway to treat your guest? Why don't you put down the gun and I'll explain why I am here."
"I'm listening.."
"Doesn't it ever get tiring to raid colony after colony without a true cause?"
"Not really. But it is getting more difficult to raid some of the richer colonies.
"And now we come to the reason I'm here."
"I would like to offer you a chance for the ultimate spoils."
"Such as..?"
"Such as all the riches in galaxy nehelennium"
"Go on.
"I am forming an alliance of outcasts to take our rightful place as kings of the brikverse. You are the first I am recruiting."
"Well, if you can promise me three things, I'll join you on your little conquest."
"What do you wish?"
"What every pirate wishes for: Babes, booty, and all the booze I can drink."
"I would expect nothing less."
"Then we have an accord...By the way, who are you?"
"I am Darkstorm...."

Some, would be more hesitant then others.

Emandiputs and [[Emperor Ato]] walk through the halls of the Space Austrian palace...
Emadniputs: I heard that another faction invited you to join their alliance, have you considered their offer?
[[Emperor Ato]]: Yes, I have, we send some aid to them a few weeks ago, they told us that they needed help bringing peace to their sector. The Noble captain in charge of our troops said that the soldiers were treated well.
Emandiputs: Perhaps you should consider joining them.
[[Emperor Ato]]: I might, but I have some reservations, given our present status, I'm not sure if a membership with the Kult of Darkness is the best course of action to securing the greater good. Also, I was rather offended by the way in which I was offered the proposal.
Emandiputs: ..I see, I would advise that you refrain from joining their alliance, but offer our services in times of need.
[[Emperor Ato]]: I had thought the same thing. What news did you have for me?..

After the successful creation of the portals and the discovery of the rest of the multiverse, an emergency meeting was held. These meetings were held in a secret temple hidden somewhere in the forests of central Alkeria.
Hiremas Alkerith: I am glad that we have finally decided to end this war, and I hope that the fifth alliance will greatly help us all. But it is not enough. With the discovery of all of these new worlds, galaxies and systems, there is no way we can possibly survive on our own. We successfully fended off one attack yes, but many more will come. What course of action do you suggest we take?
Gree: As you say, we have already defended one attack. Surely my men could repel any others that come? It would be free of charge, of course.
Hiremas Alkerith: Gree, despite all of your army's firepower, there will always be bigger armies out there. We can't afford to take a chance and risk total invasion.
Aldebraan: You are suggesting that the fifth alliance itself is not strong enough? We have two demigods Hiremas, three if you count HIM.I do not feel we are in a bad position at all, but-
Hiremas Alkerith: "Brother", I have heard tales of an Immortal empire of some kind. Every, single, soldier is a demigod or something similar. If they were to invade us, we would stand no chance. This *Powers up display table* is a ship that was spotted by one of our scouts in a large, densely populated galaxy we found. Transmissions we intercepted show it is an "Akkadian" ship, and our pilots report it was PLANET SIZED. If a ship like that were to attack us... we and everything we know would be lost.
Shadow: *Appears out of nowhere * I might just be able to help with that...
Miles Ripley: Shadow? What are you doing here? This is a secret meeting!
Hiremas Alkerith: What the-
Aldebraan: Should I know you?
Shadow: I am Shadow. Before I talk, I would like all of your associates to leave this chamber. I wish to speak with the five, and the five alone. *Vanishes*
Miles Ripley: Uh....OK? *All of the second in commands etc. Leave the chamber*
Shadow: *Reappears* I never told you where I came from up until now, did I?
Hiremas Alkerith: No, you did not. But I don't see-
Shadow: I am actually a powerful Darklord from another universe entirely. I came here after the first portal was opened as a messenger from the DARKSTORM EMPIRE. The empire is looking for recruits for a new alliance, and you have been selected as candidates. Your extensive knowledge of portal technology and Aldebraan's dark powers makes him an especially suitable candidate. You would be given a high rank, and Darkstorm would treat you well. What do you say?
Hiremas Alkerith: WHAT??? You'd better not be joking Shadow...
Shadow: I'm perfectly serious, now, will you join us
Gree: I don't know. What kind of protection would this "Darkstorm" empire offer us?
Drill-X What he said!
Aldebraan: I still don't know who this mofo is
Shadow: Complete protection against otherworldly threats, and a lifetime's supply of playboy magazines.
Gree: Wait... did you say....PLAYBOY???COUNT ME IN!!!
Hiremas Alkerith: God dammit gree.
Lurtz: I will also join this alliance.
Aldebraan: Darkness ever joins with Darkness. I agree to joining, but WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY???
Drill-X I automatically sign whatever is put in front of me! Count me in!
Shadow: And you Hiremas?
Hiremas Alkerith: I don't know... I don't know...
Aldebraan: Hiremas, you talked about an alliance, this is our chance!
Gree. Absolutely! And just think of all of those magazines...
Hiremas Alkerith: OK... fine. I'll join. What harm could it possibly do?
Shadow: Good. I shall report this news back to Darkstorm. Farewell!
*Vanishes*
Hiremas Alkerith: I'd better report this to my men.
Aldebraan: You talk to your men?
Hiremas Alkerith: Yeah. That's how we kick your asses.
*Vanishes*
Gree: Huh.

..and just as the budding empire made allies, they also made enemies..

"Hello. If you do not already know me, I am General Kage, commander of the Omegalon Federation Space Forces. Today, citizens of the Federation, we have a new threat. Recently, as you all know, Beitac III fell to an unknown invasion force. However, what you don't know is what the planet fell to. Today, you ought to know the answer, for it concerns the safety of our nation.
This... thing is what single-handedly destroyed our entire military garrison. It apparently is a part of the DRK, and was sent to eradicate our presence in their area, to prepare our planets for their taking. Naturally, we tried to aid our citizens, and help those in need on Beitac III. DESTROY OUR ENEMIES, What did they do?
Every single envoy, research team, and relief/medical team we have sent to Beitac III to aid our own people has been utterly destroyed. Furthermore, after seeing Beitac II, where relief was being provided, you proceeded to do the same to another one of our home worlds. This carnage is what we get. We cannot stand for this. We cannot simply stand by as the DRK invades and kills us, then doesn't listen to our pleas. Now, Darkstorm, we tried to Garbled You didn't listen. We tried to help our own citizens. You wouldn't let us. Now, let us repay in kind. Enemies will rue the day they heard our names, and you will especially.
As we speak, our forces are gathering on your borders.
Our fleets approach.
As we speak, you are getting ever more screwed. Beitac is ours, then your systems are as well. DRK, SSA, and the 5th Alliance? We're coming for you. Consider this a declaration of war.

==Brief Overview==

Space Austria is a [[peach]]-centric Archduchy with a sizable infantry and mechanized force, conceived in late BR 2,015, the Space Austrians became a part of the froum in mid BR 2,017. they have been involved with several battles, including their role in the [[Magikalennic War]]

=='''History'''==

No one knows when or why the deadly spacemen showed up, they just appeared one day, there had been almost no life in that area beforehand, but that all changed when the spacemen brought the seed of destruction to these empty worlds. The spacemen ruled for many eons, but the cracks inevitably began to show through. With the fall of the original spacemen, the now unoccupied and chaotic territory was claimed by "rising" Phoenix [[Hapsbrik]], conqueror of a million worlds, and the first in the infamous Hapsbrik line. Phoenix disappeared one day, leaving his kingdom to be split among his kin, and eventually forming many countries, among them, the Archduchy of Space Austria. (Many believe that Phoenix still lives, and shall someday return at the "coming of the third siege") The Space Austrians steadily grew in power, claiming much territory (most of which is now in soviet hands) and formed the Paladin guards, a standing army to defend their lands. They later joined the [[Holy Briks league]], and served dutifully along with the (future) Unified Republik Poland, Hungarians, holy Romans, and others. Perhaps their most notable victories during this time were their involvements in the war of Austrian Successes, as well as their two victories over the AUTO-man droid Turks, in the sieges of planet Vienna ( in which they were heavily aided by the Polish.) following the second siege, Space Austria formed a union with the Hungarians, forming the empire of Space Austria Hungary. The joint empire controlled a vast portion of the galaxy, but these good times were not to last. When Archduke Franz Ferdibrik was shot and killed, the empire declared war on the space-Serbs, leading to war with the future USSSR. And although the Austria-Hungarians experienced initial successes, they were eventually defeated and forced to surrender most of their territory. Unable to maintain a large army, the Space Austrians were nearly ruined, but then, fate played its cruel hand.
The weak Archduke Bob, having no other choice, surrendered all of his resources to the Intergakactik Fascist Alliance (many Bavarian troopers that took part in the AN-TA war were Space Austrians) but worse yet, with tek supplied by the Immortals, thousands of Peaches were rounded up for slaughter.
With the ending of the war, the Space Austrian Reich was pushed back to The planet of Old Vienna, and its one moon, Orchard.
Orchard was the "holding cell" for around 50 million Austrian [[Peaches]], and all semblance of government fell apart on Old Vienna during the Communi-Fascist insurgence. At its lowest low, radical change began.
Ato Hapsbrik, rightful heir to Space Austria, lived an active life on Orchard, his family had been excluded from politics ever since they had consistently bred with peach minifigures, but Ato's claim was far more than anyone else's. Ato began going from town to town, preaching revolt, and the creation of a new, and fair state. Ato was aided by a resentful [[Assyrian]] [[Peach]] Named Von Ernst, who aided him in organizing the Burghers, an all-peach orricial military force. When guards cane from Old Vienna on transport ships, the burghers seized them, ship after ship was sent to arrest the insurgents, only to be captured, one day, the Burghers attached Old Vienna with all of the captured transports they had. The planet put up little resistance, and Ato ascended to the throne.
Ato set right to work reforming the government, he returned the Reich to its Archduchial state, and imposed a parliamentary system, supported by a loyal populous and a powerful intergalactik army. Ato then began to reclaim the land he once lost. He took a wife ( who is probably a much better leader than he is) and began invading system after system, returning the Empire back to a healthy 3,000 or so worlds spread around about 700 systems. Once he was sure that he had enough power to make himself visible, Ato requested an alliance with the RC, which was highly successful.
In more recent events, the space Austrians fought several battles over an ancient super weapon, and attempted to destroy the galaxy's financial heart. And though the attempt was thwarted, the Space Austrians showed that they meant business. (The possibility of war between the SA and the [[Trattorians]] is still high, but lack of available forces on both sides may lead to the conflict quieting.)
Following this, the Space Austrians pursued friendship with the [[Darkstorm Empire]], which gives them the opportunity to improve trade, as well as study the dark forces and their power.
The Space Austrians have been involved in several other conflicts, and continue their dominance as a powerful empire, and a force to be reckoned with.

{{Category|Factions and Forces}}

Many factions and civilizations exist in the [[BrikVerse]]. Here, they are organized relative story function. There may be some overlap in concept. Where Factions are not yet fully realized on the wiki and given their own pages, they should appear in the [[Big List of Countries]]. Factions in BrikWars can generally be described in one or more of three different ways. Toybox Factions are factions that are significantly represented by real, physical toys. StoryBrik Factions are factions that have accumulated [[Kanon]] through [[BrikFiction]], [[Battle Reports]], [[Forum Battles]], and the like. StoryBook Factions, or BrikFic Factions, are factions that are significantly represented by abstract art, such as BrikFiction, digital construction programs and artwork, or physical artwork. Certain construction programs, like LDD, straddle the line between the last two descriptions because some players believe it is firmly a work of fiction and others believe it is a completely viable construction tool. It will become apparent how factions may be described as one browses the Factions and Forces articles. Factions are also typically described as player created or generic. Player created factions are created and maintained by BrikWarriors. As such, they typically have much more detailed stories and characters. Generic factions are factions that have sprung up usually through collaboration on the community's part. Generic factions are not "owned" by any specific player. BrikWarriors are generally respectful of these boundaries but crossover control is exceedingly common. After all, much in the BrikVerse is governed by [[Open Sores Material]] policy.

They are here organized first by Category and then by relative size and importance.

== Factions by Category ==

''Factions are often related to one another via a number of means. They may be enemies or allies, grouped together by geographic location (such as all the factions belonging to a particular world), part of a Storyline, or even grouped by a strong, central theme. Such factions usually maintain some form of meaningful contact with one another, though this is not always the case. Each page presented below will describe the grouping as a whole and detail which of the above factions are associated with it. The individual faction pages below will also likely detail their various and sundry associations.''
