| − | '''Mir''' "Meaning '''World'''" is an alternate dimension portrayed as a single, enormous terrestrial world only accessible by portal. Much of the realm is in a state of ecological disaster and social collapse, it's denizens making use of everything from Highly sophisticated tek acquired from precursor civilizations, to wasteland junk contraptions made where resources are scarce and everything in between. The realm is also known to be home to many practitioners of various schools of Magik. | + | '''Mir''' is a planet within a pocket dimension in the [[Gold Sector]]. It alongside it's Star, Monolit emerged in the sector after the eponymous "Monolith Event" which in R2018 wiped the entire region clean of all other stars, planets, celestial bodies, and in turn, all other life. While the planet and it's star exist in the sector, their physical location is unknown. Strange and powerful forces have successfuly kept the planet hidden from outside interference. And all travel to and from the planet is managed by a network of proxy portals. |
| | + | |
| | + | While Mir's existence appears to be of artificial or intelligent design, the planet itself is plagued by a massive ecological disaster in the form of radioactive energy crystal infestations, not to mention the damage done by it's inhabitants through the course of several surface conflicts. |

| − | ==Ancient History==
| |
| − | Long before the current era, Mir comprised of thousands of "[[Plate]] Worlds" Dominated by the [[Serican Empire]], a society of Opulent magik-wielding Elites. The Majority of the realms peoples were enslaved or otherwise under the influence of the Sericans, who were regarded as Royalty. However the Serican dominance would eventually be challenged in a series of events known only as the 'Uprising', a series of rebellions as many races attempted to break the yoke of their oppressors. The largest contingent would be of the "Commoner" Minifigs, eventually securing freedom from their oppressors, forcing them to retreat from the realm's mainlands back to where they came from. More moderate Serican factions would try to integrate themselves into the governments that formed from their former servants. But this would be short lived, Eventually after repeated conflict across the Realm, with a few exceptions, the majority of the Realm's former masters have died out or dissapeared, but leaving behind their Tek for the young to abuse.

| − | ==Recent History==
| |
| − | Despite the removal of Serican rule from the realm, Mir broke down into dozens of States, Factions and other groups. The absence of the former Stewards caused an uncontrolled ecological disasters and power vacuums led to constant competition and fighting over the Mainland and other continents. The mainland specifically has become equal parts Utopia of Civilization, and ravaged warzone. With the realm's strongest state, the Slavonik Imperiya trying to wrestle control of the region from Death Cultists, Fiercely independent city states, and Serican Remnants aligned with extradimensional visitors.

| − | File:Mirhis6.png|''The first years of Post-Serican Mir were largely defined by the rise of the [[Slavonik Imperiya]], A centralized Mainland "reclamation" government that tried to build a safe society in the anarchist wastelands that became the Mainland. The era was also defined by the conflicts said Empire found itself apart of.''
| |
| − | File:Mirhis4.png|''The first major war on the mainland in this era would be between the Imperiya, and an Alliance of settlements in the Bratva Bay region who did not wish to surrender their soverignty to a power far removed from their homes. The war between the Imperiya and [[Stroiteliga Bratva]] would end in a ceasefire, but would for the most part remain unresolved to this day.''
| |
| − | File:Mirhis5.png|''The other defining contributor to present day Mir, would be the emergence of multiple Magik Weilding Cults and psychopaths who eventually grew into an Alliance of Terror known as the [[Black Legion|Dominion of Ruin]], The Armies of Ruin have essentially left much of the Mainland in a state of total war in trying to repel them, while the forces of Ruin themselves seek nothing but the undoing of everything that has been built.''
| |
| − | File:Mbobelder.jpg|''Faced with defeat and failure at every step since being removed from power by the Uprising many years ago, What remained of the Sericans either died, fled, or regressed into bickering nobles trying to protect their fiefdoms and treasure hoards, At least one Dynasty successfully managed to integrate with the others, being the [[Ordo Omega]].

| |
| − | Interdimensional Travel between Mir and the outside Brikverse has been open for some time now, though [[Slavonik Imperiya|only]] [[Ordo Omega|three]] [[Vaenia|factions]] possess such portals. However the only one capable of teleporting anything more than personnel or small cargo is in the control of the Imperiya, who may for the most part, dictate what is allowed and prohibited within the realm. Magik is heavily policed, and even [[M-Throne Empire|mighty]] [[Imperial Magikstrate|empires]] from outside the realm who are operating within it, are forced to work with what they build there, not what they bring with them.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Ordo Omega have joined forces with the outsider alliance known as the [[Rubrum Crucesignatis]] and jointly built their own portal, allowing both to move persons and supplies between dimensions unimpeded by Imperiya Authorities, this has contributed to what has essentially become trafficking of magikal items which are heavily policed by the Imperiya's "Interdimensional Customs". And things have degraded to the point that the Imperiya has formed UNAMIR, an alliance of "Nativists" dedicated to protecting the realm from dangerous outside influences. And two now are essentially locked in a Cold War, any escalation of the conflict could well destroy much of civilization in the realm. All while the forces of Ruin continue to attack practically everyone, and smaller governments are on the verge of collapsing every day of the week.

| − | Mir was previously a scattered collection of thousands of isolated plate worlds, only traversable by portals and starships. In R2021 however the vast majority of plates were merged together when Mages activated an Elder Engine that turned most of the realm into a traditional, albeit enormous terrestrial world separated into 4 large continents, and countless islands. Traversable by water, air or teleportation.

| − | *'''Serican Isles''' (''Pronounciation: Sare-Ikan'') are a pair of Islands roughly in the center of the realm. They are the ancient homeland of the [[Serican Empire]], a precursor civilization that once ruled the entirety of the realm. Since their fall and exodus, the Serican Isles themselves have been left uninhabitable. Their previous occupants left behind an army of "bioweapons" to butcher and eat any would be looters of their sacred home. Since then various military groups have essentially glassed the isles to kill off the monsters there. Unfortunately destroying everything else in the process.

| | | | |
| − | *'''Slavonica''' (''Pronounciation: Slah-vonn-ika'') Also referred to as the Mainland, is the largest, and oldest of the realm's Lands. Roughly a third of it's landmass is greenland. while the other two thirds are wasteland of one form or another. The continent is unique in that it is the only one infested with Ichor crystals. Due to the turbulent history of the continent, a considerable portion of it's landmass is considered to be "Wild Territory". Undeveloped and Uninhabited by no more than small groups of scavengers. It is home to Minifigs, Canids, Avians, Gators, Hives and a tiny population of Serican remnants.
| + | =Minifig Civilization= |
| | + | The continents and isolated plate worlds of Mir are home to hundreds of thousands of minifigs and individuals of other races. While information is only available for the Realm's largest continent, Serica. It is known that some populations exist all over the realm in areas that are yet uncontacted. |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Xindra''' (''Pronounciation: Zin-dra'') is the second largest of the realm's lands. Almost the entire continent is desert and wasteland, Living things can only scratch out an existence around the coasts. While not touched by Ichor crystal infestation, the continent is still largely inhospitable and uninhabitable. It's population consists of Xind, Kar'shan and Plasmen
| + | Most of the population lives in the central "green" regions of Serica, safe from ecological disaster although smaller communities and settlements exist scattered across the wastes and wild territories. While Minifigs make up the majority of the population, there are known to be more than a dozen races on Serica alone, including some who have Migrated from Xindra and other continents. |
| − | ** ''Xind Empire'': A large collection of settlements and cities belonging to a seperate race that is similar, but different to Minifig kind, they are known for their love of raiding and pillaging others, and often themselves
| |
| − | ** ''Kar'Shan Empire'': A smaller heirarchy of another Minifig-like race also known for little more than raiding and pillaging
| |
| − | ** ''DARR'': A rogue machine intelligence of unknown origin, that has walled itself off in the north and has shown nothing but hostility to others. robots under its control often scour and terrorize the deserts near its territory
| |

| − | *'''Kraiena''' (''Pronounciation: Kry-eena'') Is a smaller , habitable continent populated by dozens of different minifig nations. Most have banded together into one of two regional powers. The civilizations of this region largely keep to themselves and rarely venture outward.
| + | ==Governments, Alliances & Faction Entities== |
| − | ** ''Federation of Kraiena'': A Confederation of wealthy democratic nations that holds considerable power over the region, often to the point of driving poorer nations against them and their imperialism
| |
| − | ** ''Red Kraiena'':A Large authoritarian socialist state ideologically opposed to the Federation and their Capitalist tendancies
| |
| − | ** ''Bellacose, Namour & Morana'': A number of poor and backwards buffer states that divide the territories of the two hostile powers in the region
| |
| − | ** ''Verklund'': A wealthy facist state that refused integration into the Federation, and previously fought against both the major powers of the region trying to secure its own dominance. After multiple failed wars, they are largely isolationist
| |

| − | *'''Vaenia''' (''Pronounciation: Vain-ya'') Is another smaller, habitable continent that was populated by colonists from Kraiena, It is largely peaceful with no war since it's initial colonial period.
| + | {| style="width: 100%;" | |
| − | ** ''Union State of Vaenia, "USV"'': A large relatively powerful capitalist democracy that more or less keeps out of foreign affairs. Since the fall of the Serican Empire the USV has largely become the Realm's Bank. Housing most of it's signifigant financial institutions, and boasting an overall economic and tek development second only to the strongest nations on Slavonica. Besides tending to their own business, they are more interested in Extra-Dimensional matters, doing business with governments and Empires outside the realm. | + | | colspan="3" | |
| − | ** ''Kingdom of Grinzlow'': A Constitutional Monarchy allied to the USV, While less developed and less wealthy they nevertheless do their part trying to ensure peace across the realm. Their government largely only cares about matters on their own Continent, and Kraiena, dismissing Slavonica as nothing but a collection of failed states locked in perpetual war. | + | |- |

UNAMIR considers itself to have universal authority when it comes to "Matters of Safety for the Realm". Meaning their heavy handed policing of Magik users has drawn the ire and spurred conflict with some.

| − | After the dissapearance of the Elders, and the dwindling supplies of Ichor crystals, Careless magik users attempted to artificially grow the reserves of the crystals, the experiment backfired and caused an ecological disaster that would make Ichor fields sprout all across the realm. Those who controlled Elder Forges would have no shortage of fuel, however the crystals themselves began to destroy the environment. Countless regions were overrun by the crystals and making it difficult to sustain life.
