'''The Solar Empire, Solaris''' or officially the '''Solar Empire of Arith''' is a theocratic constitutional monarchy which dominates a the Western half of the continent [[Arith]]. The Empire is headed by the religious and political head of state, the Solar Emperor, who is the head of the [[Solaris|Solar Ecclesiarchy of Erses]], also known as [[Solaris]], Emperor of Solar Pyrrhia The Empire is a constitutional monarchy, with representation for local Lords and land owners in the Imperial Estate.

The foundation of the Empire is during the events of Great Reformation, when Melevor II was commanded by the head god of the now defunct faith of [[Ceiltean Druidism]], Solaris Erses, to correct the Faith with various reforms and doctrinal rewrites. This was completed with the completion of the holy texts of [[Solaris]], the '''Solar Codex'''. At the time, the Empire was still not formed as the nation was under the control of Melevor II's father, [[Melevor]], who upheld strong Socialist beliefs, being the founder of the [[Union of Collectivist Council Republics]]. Following Melevor I's death during the Second Crusade against Pater Carnis, Melevor II inherited the Union with many of his enemies already dead. Within days he had proclaimed himself Emperor and reinstated the ancient order of Pyrrhia. Three days following the proclamation of the Solar Pyrrhian Empire, the state was approached by conspirators from the [[Free Cities of Alathra]], who successfully overthrew the F.C.A. Senate and securing the loyalty of half of the towns of the F.C.A, joining together with Pyrrhia to establish a continental superpower, the Solar Empire of Arith, which still retains the Western half of Arith after the short Arith Crisis, a long-time policy goal of Melevor II's father.

=== Pre-History ===
=== Pre-History ===
The Empire has a history spanning long before it's creation. Before the Great Reformation existed the Grand Order of Druids, who propagated the now defunct [[Ceiltean Druidism]], which the Solar Ecclesiarchy was built upon. The Grand Order was established by the ancient progenitor of the Murascaillbach Dynasty, the direct descendant of Erses, Íor Murascaillbach. Prior to the arrival of Íor Murascaillbach on Terra, the population of the world was divided and either had no conception of true religion or gods, and worshipped only material wealth or pagan idols of flesh.

==== The Age of Heroes ====
==== The Age of Heroes ====
The Age of Heroes was a series of long and protracted wars by the warrior-druids of Íor Murascaillbach against the pagans of Western Arith. Though lasting for upwards of 200 years, the series of wars was finally won by the people who would eventually become the Pyrrhians, known as the proto-Pyrrhians with the annihilation of the pagan temple which stood on the banks of the Saile river, modern day Ceiltean Crownlands. Though by this time Íor was dead by 75 years, his son was the first to truly settle in the lands and reign over peaceful territories.

Though by this time Íor was dead by 75 years, his son was the first to truly settle in the lands and reign over peaceful territories.


The druids and proto-Pyrrhians lived a very peaceful lifestyle, living in nature under a loose Confederation headed by the chief of the Murascaillbach Clan. Under this Age shrines and standing stones to the gods thrived, appearing all over Western Arith as a result of Druidic wandering and nomad lifestyles. This would end with the rise of the [[Free Cities of Alathra]], whose harsh policies against bandits would drive the money-making thieves into the relatively unsettled and nomadic West of Arith and into direct confrontation with the proto-Pyrrhains.

== Politics ==
The political life of the Empire is much more free than that of the former [[Union of Collectivist Council Republics]], though is currently limited to the Upper House of the Imperial Diet, the Imperial Estate. The Empire's religious head and head of state is the Solar Emperor who has a deciding factor on all laws or items passed by the Imperial Diet, and will continue to do so even after the creation of a Lower House, though is benevolent and doesn't often get involved in the affairs of the Imperial Diet unless it directly impacts the Faith.

=== Solar Emperor, King of Kings, Voice of Erses ===
=== Solar Emperor, King of Kings, Voice of Erses ===
The Solar Emperor is the religious head of Solaris, and head of state of the Empire. He brandishes the additional religious titles of King of Kings and Voice of Erses. The Solar Emperor is the absolute and theocratic monarch of the Empire, but delegates lesser duties and the running of Government to an appointed Archchancellor who oversees the Imperial Diet in the name of the Emperor. The Emperor maintains direct control over the [[Solaris]] Faith, and through this control has more control over managing the Empire that at first sight. The Emperor is revered as a divine monarch, as a direct descendant of the Solar God himself, Erses and so is treated with the respect that is deserved as a divine being by all those in the Empire. To become any title of nobility or religion it is required to swear fealty and obedience to the Emperor.

=== Archchancellor ===
The Archchancellor is the head of the government, and oversees the Imperial Diet, and more specifically the Imperial Estate. The current Archchancellor is [[Drakkalon Metellus]], a childhood friend of Melevor II, and an Ecclesiarch of the Solar Ecclesiarchy. Under the watchfal eye of Metellus the Imperial Estate has been formed and entirely dominated by his personality and zealous faith in the Emperor. The Archchancellor acts as both the head of the government, and as the key advisor of the Emperor, sitting in the Consortium Solaris alongside other Ministers, Ecclesiarchs and key individuals of the Emperor's court. The Archchancellor directly oversees the Imperial Estate as the current sole legislature of the Empire and acts as the speaker of the House, bringing order when necessary.

Line 125: Line 125:
The government of the Empire is headed by the Archchancellor, appointed by the Emperor. The government consists of Ministers and their respective ministries and staff. The government consists only of two Imperial Ministries as of March 23rd 2022, those being the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Relations, and the Imperial Ministry of Labour. Policing activities are enforced through the Solar Inquisition, which is handled through the Solar Ecclesiarchy, and Army activities are enforced through the Exercitus Solaris, the official Imperial Army, and so respective ministries for these are not required.

==== Imperial Estate ====
==== Imperial Parliament ====
The Imperial Estate is the current sole legislative body of the Empire and comprises both local and regional nobility, alongside higher members of the clergy such as the Proper Priesthood and the Ecclesiarchs. The Imperial Estate was created and assembled on the order of the Solar Emperor Melevor II, advised by the Archchancellor [[Drakkalon Metellus]], to give voice for the rising nobility and clergy of the new Empire. On a local and regional level, Dukes have control over their Counts and Barons, though in the Imperial Estate each lord of a settlement, despite town size gets an equal say in the affairs of the Diet. The Consortium Solaris are also able to attend meetings of the Imperial Estate, alongside the Solar Emperor, though the appearance of the Emperor in the Estate chambers is not common, only appearing when he has direct input, or is making a speech in front of the nobles and clergy of the Realm.

Following the establishment of Solar Empire words of well wishes were sent from the new [[Elyria|Elyrian]] capital of Ehrenhal to Solar Pyrrhus, and were reciprocated. In a following meeting between Solar Emperor Melevor and King Aldrich a non-aggression pact and a general establishment of good relations and friendship was agreed upon by both Elyria and Solaris. Through the Arith Crisis and beyond it the two powers have retained good relations with a planned increase in them from the Solarian side, with the creation of an embassy in Ehrehal.

The Legion (formerly Eldia) is another state on Gaushan which retains good relations with the Empire both prior to and following the Arith Crisis, through which Eldia provided recognition of the Empire and supported it's cause against the F.C.A. Following the Crisis Eldia was reformed along the lines of Solarian doctrine and began it's path as the Legion. The Empire views the Legion as it's most important ally and as the gateway for spreading Solarian Faith internationally, rather than being confined to Arith.
The Solar Dominion of Eldia is another state on Gaushan which retains good relations with the Empire both prior to and following the Arith Crisis, through which Eldia provided recognition of the Empire and supported it's cause against the F.C.A. Following the Crisis Eldia was reformed along the lines of Solarian doctrine and began it's path first as the Legion and now as a Solarian theocracy. The Empire views Eldia as it's most important ally and as the gateway for spreading Solarian Faith internationally, rather than being confined to Arith.


The Empire has poor opinions and relations with two other powers on Gaushan, those being Stahlfaust and the League. While the Empire maintains communications with the League, it is viewed as the cause of the loss of the Arith Crisis and has subsequently been viewed poorly both by Imperial representatives and the general Solarian public. On the other hand the Empire does not maintain communications with Stahlfaust, which originally praised the foundation of the new Solar Pyrrhian Empire, but subsequently embargoed the Solar Empire of Arith and supported the cause of the F.C.A. during the Arith Crisis. Such actions have been viewed by the Imperial Government with extreme suspicion and consideration of the Stahlfaustian foreign policy as conducted by opportunists.
The Empire has stable relations with two other powers on Gaushan, those being Stahlfaust and the League. While the Empire maintains communications with the League, it is viewed as the cause of the loss of the Arith Crisis and has subsequently been viewed poorly both by Imperial representatives and the general Solarian public. The Empire additionally maintains communications with Stahlfaust, which originally praised the foundation of the new Solar Pyrrhian Empire, but subsequently embargoed the Solar Empire of Arith and supported the cause of the F.C.A. during the Arith Crisis causing the Empire to formerly look ill upon the nation. Following this a non-aggression and trade pact was signed between the Empire and Stahlfaust.
