Imperiya /Im-peer-iya/ (Monolyth Script: империя) is a faction from the Monolith Battleplates and is considered to be the largest and most powerful of the known factions of the realm. Much of their identity was drawn and created from the former Galacian Imperiya, from which it also gets it's name.

Ethos & Objectives

Out of all the factions of the Monolith Battleplates, with the exception of the city-states themselves, Imperiya is the most concerned with establishing a permanent dominion and maintaining a government over civilians. The reasoning not out of a desire to be bureaucratic or benevolent. But out of a paranoid agenda to maintain security and order throughout the cities to keep the minifigs docile, and otherwise not joining Gangs or Cults. Imperiya goes so far as to train militias of villages and towns to police the regions it can't be bothered with.

Imperiya seeks to fight the forces of disorder and mayhem. But at the same time, opposes any group that may challenge it's position. Fighting against savages, gangs, and other armies for sport. Their engineers constantly create war machines and weapons out of raw materials scavenged from the wastes, and scientists occasionally make portals to raid other dimensions.

Imperiya is also notorious for employing locals from towns and villages, and training them into auxiliary security forces. All with the intention of spreading "Order" throughout the world with as many allies as possible.

Leadership

See:Monolith characters The Monolith Imperiya had traditionally followed the rule of a single "Emperor", for which the Imperiya got it's name. However for reasons unknown, the Imperiya has been without a central leader for a very long time. The very symbolic throne that was sat upon by the emperor, is not only vacant, but outright dissapeared. Yet the mission of the entity remains unchanged. It is generally accepted that Two individuals sit atop of the Empire's leadership. Sergachev and Varone

The inner workings of the group are largely unknown to the outside world. But many beileve the Imperiya's appearance power is a facade, and that it is a fragile tinderbox ready to start fighting with itself. Many of the troops and officers of the group have formed their own cliques, clubs and subfactions. Many are also defectors or converts from other factions, existing or absorbed. And their loyalties may lie more with their old officers than the Imperiya at large

Division and Subfactions

Because it is so large, the Imperiya faction periodically breaks into semi-independent, sometimes bickering and quarreling factions behind different Commanders. The force headquarted in Khrabrost is regarded as the main faction, While other groups have temporarily splintered off in their own regions or even other realms. One such example is the Omega Imperiya who maintain a presence on the Omega Plate, and are traditionally cut-off from the other factions. Another notable faction is the Lazarus Imperiya, a small faction that has left the Monolith Plates and maintains a small presence in the Galaxia Nehellenium in the vicinity of the former Gold Sector. This was thought to be of some sentimental value to them, but there may be more sinister things at play there.

Factions outside of the Monolith plates, will often refer to all of the Imperiya factions from the plates as the Monolith Imperiya, however such a term is just a mildly specific umbrella term for groups such as Khrabrost and Omega

Military

Imperiya has two main divisions.

• Armiya - The Ground Forces, the conventional Army using heavy vehicles and massed ground assaults against the enemies of their agenda
• Flota - The Fleet Forces, Using Medium to large sized vehicles known as fleet ships to bombard ground targets, transport Marines over long distances over the plates, and do battle with other fleets in the void above the plates, The realm's equivalent to space

Armiya

The Imperiya Armiya is experienced, sophisticated, and uptight. Deploying large units of Regular, Veteran, Elite and Special Forces soldiers. And lots of heavy Armor and transports.
