 ===== Introduction ===== ===== Introduction =====
-Elysia , officially the Elysian Celestial Empire, is a nation whose territory is located in the North-West sector of space. The Empire is bordered by [[faction:democratic_imperium_of_nepleslia]], the [[faction:freespacers:freespacers]] and the [[species:mishhuvurthyar]], as well as geographically speaking bordering [[nebula:ayame_s]], the largest cluster of black holes in known space, the 'Stars' and Xenn's Expanse.+Elysia , officially the Elysian Celestial Empire, is a nation whose territory is located in the North-West sector of space. The Empire is bordered by [[faction:democratic_imperium_of_nepleslia]], the [[species:freespacers]] and the [[species:mishhuvurthyar:mishhuvurthyar]], as well as geographically speaking bordering [[places:ayames_nebula]], the largest cluster of black holes in known space, the 'Stars' and Xenn's Expanse.
  
-The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty. Its political ideology is enormously shaped by its deeply religious mentality, believing in its supremacy, right to all other territory in the universe and vaguely xeno-phobic and highly isolationist stance. It has the fourth-largest economy in the known universe, although its newly colonized system and use of both highly motivated workers ([[species:plebeian|plebeians]]) and effective slave-labour ([[.elysia:seraph]]) may see this changing in the immediate future. Its isolationist nature and stance on preserving Elysia's culture means that foreigners are largely not welcome within the empire - requiring previous permission and required to stay in specified locations. Elysia is the joint third largest empire in terms of territory - with five planetary systems, and although dwarfed in term of military power by the [[species:mishhuvurthyar]] and [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]] remains a local power with increasing military potential.+The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty.

-The Elysian Celestial Empire has a long history and was an independent entity until [[calendar:YE 25]] when it was absorbed by Yamatai at the end of the [[.elysia:history:fourth_elysian_war]]. It regained its independent status in [[calendar:YE 28]]. In comparison to Earth cultures The Elysian Empire is a product of Ancient Greek and Roman culture with a liberal dose of Judeo-Christianic style monotheism - leading to a slightly arcane style race befitting their common name - 'Angels'. This independence was short-lived though, as the NMX attacks in [[calendar:YE 32]] forced the Elysian nation to accept Yamataian authority in exchange for protection.+The Elysian Celestial Empire has a long history and was an independent entity until [[timeline:ye_25]] when it was absorbed by Yamatai at the end of the [[timeline:events:fourth_elysian_war]].

 The Elysians who make up the Empire are composed of three subspecies - the '[[species:plebeian]]' whose DNA has been contaminated with human genetic material, the '[[species:caelisolan]]' which is intended as the upgrade for the Plebeian's natural bodies, and '[[species:patricians|Archangel]]' which is the pure Elysian - possession of these different bodies is the way to tell between the social classes of the three sub-races - the ruling aristocratic, the meritocratic elite, and the leftover workers. Most notably all Elysians have wings and look rather angelic, though the resemblance grows stronger as you move up the social ladder. The Elysians who make up the Empire are composed of three subspecies - the '[[species:plebeian]]' whose DNA has been contaminated with human genetic material, the '[[species:caelisolan]]' which is intended as the upgrade for the Plebeian's natural bodies, and '[[species:patricians|Archangel]]' which is the pure Elysian - possession of these different bodies is the way to tell between the social classes of the three sub-races - the ruling aristocratic, the meritocratic elite, and the leftover workers.

-Independence was secured, somewhat by surprised, in [[calendar:YE 28]], leading to the formation of the [[.elysia:government:senate]] as the administrative body, notably not recreating the position of Emperor. Quickly embracing a policy of scientific expansion and reform Elysia began to fully upgrade its military and in [[calendar:YE 29]] colonised three planets to the west using [[stararmy:starship_classes:horizon-class_colony_ship|Horizon-class colony ships]] given to them by Yamatai.+Independence was secured, somewhat by surprised, in [[timeline:ye_28]], leading to the formation of the [[.government:senate]] as the administrative body, notably not recreating the position of Emperor.

 The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty - it regards itself as theoretically democratic. The constitution of the Empire is an evolutionary and organic entity, with no fixed composition point but is composed of the religious laws passed down (as they see it) from God, common law dating from time immemorial and the sum product of every motion and law passed by the senate, or back under the old empire by the Emperor. The three areas of government - executive, legislative and judicial are bound into the singular body of the Senate - a group of 501 Patricians elected by Patricians on a constituency basis with a proportional number coming from the military, church and other professions. The senate wields complete sovereignty - it is limited by nothing other than the word of God and can change any law or enter any part of public life. As such the closest thing to a 'Bill of Rights' would be the various Elysian works of faith. While not really having a singular leader the senate is headed by 'God's Justiciar', who primarily serves to ensure that the laws and decisions are in keeping with Gods words and also to ensure proper procedure is adhered to. He is not, however, the face of Elysia in diplomatic proceedings - this falls to one of the Senators with diplomatic and rhetoric training. Perhaps the single most powerful position is the Leader of the War Council, who directs the military senators and has considerable power in this role. The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty - it regards itself as theoretically democratic.

-Making up the majority of the population of the Empire the Plebeians are the 'ordinary' person, the masses. It is not only a social position, but also a race - long ago Elysian DNA was contaminated to various degrees by interbreeding with Humans. A Plebeian is seen as socially, politically and spiritually lesser than a Patrican (although still infinitely more than an outsider). Most Plebeians live in the country-side and small rural communities, or in industrial centres and despite their bad press do not actually live in poverty. Relative to a Patrician they live a fairly pitiful existence, but almost none live in total poverty - only some in relative. They all have enough food to eat, water drink and are given education and jobs - unemployment is all but unheard of. That being said they are the manual work force on which the whole of Elysia is based - either they or the [[.elysia:seraph:s18]]'s do all the 'productive' work.+Making up the majority of the population of the Empire the Plebeians are the 'ordinary' person, the masses.

 In Elysian society there is a partition between the Plebeians and Patricians - the Plebeians get one standard of jobs, health service, education and prospects, while the Patricians get another.

This is not to say their is a glass ceiling - it is possible for a Plebeian to become a Patrician through exceptional hard work, marked by the transfer from a Plebeian to a Patrician body. In Elysian society there is a partition between the Plebeians and Patricians - the Plebeians get one standard of jobs, health service, education and prospects, while the Patricians get another.
