The Leirian Empire
Head of State: His Majesty Kaiser Wasting
Foundation and History
The Leir system sits on a key jump point between UEE and Vanduul Space. It is a former corporate mining system that has been around for several hundred years. Under the just and kind hand of the Messer Dynasty, Leir saw unprecedented levels of development and prosperity, allowing our forefathers to strengthen themselves as true sons and daughters of the UEE. At one point in our culture, it was even seen as a rite of passage to serve in the Imperial War Machine. To that end, millions of us died in the First and Second Tevarin War. After the Messer Era had ended, Leir became stagnant. We were seen as nothing more than a backwater, far from the eyes of the “glorious seat of power” that is the Sol system. Year after year our forefathers became more and more disillusioned with the “New” UEE. Then it all finally came to a head. Since the Messer dynasty has fallen, The people of Leir Two, or Maya as they call it, have become rampant in their aggressive beliefs of Anarchy and defiance. The so-called “Outsiders” have a belief that humanity is a stain and “rejects civilization.” This caused them to aggressively take over Leir II. This outrage caused the UEE to abandon the Leir system, abandoning us. We were loyal Servants of the Messer Dynasty, and they knew it, they wanted us to burn out, they just needed a reason. So when they abandoned the Leir system, they stopped all support, trade, and otherwise to the area. Millions starved as a result. “When a man must watch the ones he loves starve, he does not think of how to get above the situation, but rather of those who put him there.”, these words describe the end of the Leirian silence. In the year 2810, My ancestors finally had enough. He rallied the men of our planet in open insurrection against the UEE. The Leirian Empire had been formed, Ratified by an Imperial Diet of his creation and put together with the blood and sweat of a million leirian’s. We would not dare look back on the “Republic” of old, The same disgraced government that dared to starve our children and attempted to break our pride. My Great Grandfather Solidified his dynasty against the UEE, stabilizing our people and securing our place in the stars. For the last 100 years, Our Government and military have defended our rights and honor against the Vanduul, Outsiders, and many other threats. We stand ready to defend ourselves and look towards expansion. We are Leirians, and we will not be erased.
