He was a great mythical General who slew a the head of an older, more corrupt Kingdom in a huge battle with spectacular special effects. Standing over the body of his slain foe, the General proclaimed himself Emperor. Grateful citizens, thankful to the General for leading them out of a dark time and into enlightened light, brought him the long forgotten Crown. Surrounded by family, friends, followers, and sycophants, the General sat on his Throne and began the long rule. The Emperor was an Elf. He ruled over the races with an even hand the other elves, the men, the halflings, the gnomes, the half orcs, and the occasional but rare tourist dwarf. All lived together in peace and harmony until a Threat faced the Empire. Then the Heroes saved the day. This is a bog standard fantasy Empire. Colorless, bland, it begins with a bang and lasts thousands of years without interruption, collapse, civil war, disease, or hiccup. The enlightened Emperor keeps his people safe while his threats are evil and wrong. Yet Empires, even those headed by hyper conservative Elves, cannot last 5. Anything can destroy an Empire an uprising, an unwarranted technology advance, even a new idea. The 1 social good promoted by the Empire is the existence and continued stability of the Empire. Every action must save the Empire threats cannot disrupt the citizens lives the Empire must continue. The Emperor is good, the outside is bad, and heroes save the day by preventing change. First order of business forbid all new things, especially technological advance. Order of business 2 worship the past and ignore the future. The long lives of elves incentivize them to protect themselves and their Empires. A new thing might unbalance the delicate machinery of power. Things that threaten it must go. Nothing lasts forever unless it exists in a hermetically sealed box. But the Elves are smart and they stack the deck. These particular Elves good and shining all built their Empire like so Government. Unless Elves are immortal in this setting, they picked Charismatic Dynasts with primogeniture inheritance because its nice, stable, and a predictable. Done. The bigger trick was establishing an effective professional bureaucracy of scholars, mostly other Elves, to run tiers of regional control across the Empire. Instead of handing control to squabbling nobles with inherited titles who vie and plot to become Emperor themselves, or raise up in civil war, the Emperor built his government through testing, meritocracy, learning, and civilian rule. Should one governor die or retire, another unrelated but similarly qualified took his or her place. This allowed the Emperor to centralize power over his kingdom, create standards, and enforce stability. Uprising regional governors were merely replaced they had no blood relation to the Emperor and he removed them at will. The Emperor concentrated the learning and culture of his Empire in his Capital as the central hub. As the Emperor built the government on meritocracy, only the most learned, most educated, and most erudite circulated in the bureaucracy surrounding the person of the Emperor. There, the bureaucrats spoke Elvish even the other races, argued philosophy, tweaked the meritocracy exams, penned poems, wrote histories and composed songs. They discussed the merits of their Empire and agreed as one it was Good although how Good was by degrees. And should any great scholar invent a new, interesting, and particularly catchy set of ideas He was sent to rule the far off provinces as a reward for his magnificent work in thought and progress. Magic. Magic flourished in the Empire. Wizards built academies and took in a steady stream of new students. Many of these new students matriculated to take the government exams and accept leadership posts in the Empire. The Emperor encouraged Magic as long as young Wizards mastered only the prescribed spells as taught to them by their elders. At the beginning of Empire, the Wizards and the Emperor met and decided on the core spell list. They broke spells into rungs of technology ie, levels. Homogeneity gave the Emperor control over magic but he did not stint the spell list was comprehensive. Empire Earth Greek Campaign File' title='Empire Earth Greek Campaign File' />But that was it. No other spells. Using the so called Ancient Books of the Ancients written conveniently by theoretically ancient scholars, students learned by rote the same introductory spells and, as they progressed through their education and careers, learned the same 2nd level spells, same 3rd level spells, all the way to Mastery. Then those Masters taught their students the same spells from the Ancient Books of the Ancients. Everyone, even the greatest of villains and the worst monsters, had access to the same spell list and same spells. No magic, not even the most powerful, proved a major threat to the Emperor. He always had some Wizard with the antidote to all known spells circling his personal bureaucracy. On this went for the 5. Empire. The Empire declared those wizards who performed their own, private magic research the evil renegades. Murder Hobos given quests by the Questgivers in the pay of the centralized bureaucracy a lovely position if one could get one dispatched them with extreme violence. They were evil, Murder Hobos heroes good, out they went. But, the argument went, why would someone perform their own magical researchSuch a thing was unthinkable. The current spell list was solid, covered all needs, and mastering magic guaranteed a nice job with comfortable living standards for life. So almost no one did. Rogue wizards were an aberration. The Ancients knew best. Trade. The Emperor developed highly sophisticated trade internally, within his Empire. The north had wheat and millet. Game Pokemon Third Element. The south had fish and salt. The government built roads and canals to ease trade pains between the north and south and patrolled them with professional soldiers from the Empires small standing army. A lucrative trade cycle formed. Merchants made good, but not overwhelming, money. The people were happily fed. With the north and south filling each others needs, the people were free to specialize in their trades mages, clerics, adventurers, magic weaponsmiths, questgivers. They developed arts and luxury goods. Trade outside the Empire was a different story. Selling of goods and services to those outside the Empire was forbidden. It was tantamount to selling arms to the Empires enemies. And who would want to No one opened trade with the Ork Hordes who wandered the steppes outside the Empire or the Spider Goddess Worshipping Dark Elves of the Underdark. Not only was it forbidden, by the cultural norms of the Empire, it was evil. No goods flowed out, and no goods, with forbidden ideas and technology sticking to them, flowed in.
