The terran
republic is a
authoritarian government that leverages the millitary to take control through
violence,
The
Terran Republic (TR) is an empire with a rich history extending 1,112 years,
and the originator of the other two empires. They brought order out of chaos
and introduced the world to an era of peace. Since the armistice and the formation
of the new government, and as the singular political force on Earth,
They use red and black to represent death and danger.
The Vanu Sovereignty is one of three Empires waging war on
Auraxis. Of the three, the Vanu Sovereignty has most embraced the technology of
the Ancients. Most of their infantry weapons use Energy Cells instead of
conventional rounds. This provides provides flexibility in allowing most
weapons to have an anti-infantry and an armor-piercing mode without having to
change ammunition. All of the Vanu Sovereignty's empire-specific weapons launch
energy instead of projectiles.
The New Conglomerate (commonly abbreviated NC) is one of
three empires vying for control over the planet Auraxis. They are characterized
by hard-hitting weapons and heavily-armored vehicles. Their faction colors are
blue and yellow. The New Conglomerate was initially formed on Earth,
over a century before the wormhole collapse as a mega-collective of civilian
corporations who worked alongside the Walt Disney Republic government on
virtually every project throughout the solar system. After arriving on Auraxis,
the New Conglomerate continued to work along with the Walt Disney Republic on
shaping and building up the new world.
