The Winged Sphere - Imperial Structuring'
The homeworld for this mighty civilization is '''Zordor'''. A beautiful yet densely tailored fortress world, located in the Eastern border of imperial space, near the heart of the Nehellium Galaxy. Above all other cloud-hugging spires of metal and blackened-chrome buildings, one overwatches all. A colossal tower-like stronghold, The Citadel. In this stupendous construction of grandiose proportions, BFenix along with his trusted ministers and generals, The Templars, build and plan the future of the empire.
MAOX citizens, more commonly known as Zordorians (related to the capital and homeworld) live in worlds that mirror Zordor to a greater or lesser degree in most aspects. They all work towards the progress and development of the empire in various ways, yet, they can be independent from each-other also. Usually, each world is "specialized" and follows a certain archetype according to its role within the empire's anatomy. There are three main planetary archetypes, which are: Factory World (resource harvesting and production-focused. ex: factories, mines, greenhouses, power plants, assembly lines, workshops, etc.), Bastion World (military-focused. ex: fortresses, hangars, barracks, training and weapon testing facilities, etc.) and Eden World (populace, commerce, research, education and culture-focused. ex: cities, laboratories, markets, universities, hospitals, etc.). There are some exceptions which are Proto-Worlds, that fuse several planetary archetypes into something new. The renowned MAOX Mech and EXW (Experimental Weapons) R&D facilities on Krosah-VIII are a prime example of a Factory and Eden worlds combined.
Overall, the empire gives an above-average quality of life to most zordorians, although it is facing several social employment problems due to the high demand of manpower required by the military.
People like refugees, convicts, 1st stage works, POWs and those unfit for Zordorian citizenship live in the Underworld, which flourishes mainly in Factory-Worlds.
The Guardian Dragon - Secret Police State Much?
The MAOXian underworld is completely controlled by an ultra-secretive, semi-official organization know as 黒大門 (Kuro DaiMon), The Black DaiMon. This organization serves various purposes. It prevents criminal entities from emerging to power. It protects the top of the MAOXian hierarchic pyramid from said criminal entities. And it does some wet and dirty work that the imperial authorities wouldn't be able to officially carry out and report. While these tasks are indeed carried out, the Black DaiMon covertly also does the exact opposite and as such, it is a powerful and rich organization, second only to MAOX's Official Imperial Administration and it has threatened it quite a few times already.
Live by the sword. Die by the sword. - The Death Korps
Genetically tailored and enhanced. Mechanically augmented. Psychologically indoctrinated. The Death Korps are a legendary special operations division known for accomplishing impossible missions due to their overall superior capabilities and armaments. DK operatives are MAOX's ultimate badass warriors.
