The Galactic Empire, formerly the Galactic Republic, was established 19 years BBY. It is a government spanning millions of star systems and is the largest within the known galaxy. Having such a large population to administrate, considerable resources have been focused on military assets thus the Imperial Military was established. With a massive population and an impressive military the Galactic Empire is one of the most powerful and influential bodies within the galaxy.

Imperial Aims
The Empire is part of an ambitious project to create "safe and secure society" for the Galaxy. The Empire as it is today is the manifestation of the complex ideology articulated by the New Order Party and its associated organisations, which have come to exercise much of the state's authority over the years.
The New Order project faces many threats, both internal and external. The principal external threat, as it has grown, is the Rebel Alliance. Whilst this super-group of rebels is the most obvious threat to the Empire and the order it so jealously guards, the regime continues to exercise itself in the pursuit of internal dissidents- whether spies and agents of the Rebel Alliance itself or simply non-conformists within society.
The long term aims of the Empire are, briefly:
1. The erradication of dissenters and diversity in order to create unity. 2. The extension of effective rule to all areas of the Galaxy.
This entails the centralisation of power, creation of massive military forces, the waging of an aggressive military campaign against the most active rebels and of a propaganda war on the minds of Imperial citizens across the Galaxy. Much of this was begun under the direction of the late Emperor Palpatine and continues despite his death.
Influence on the Galaxy
Whilst the Empire formally lays claim to the governance of the known Galaxy the reality is somewhat less grand. The Galaxy is vast and contains a unimagnable array of speicies, nations, planets and problems and the Empire, despite its vast resources, cannot effectively govern all of it. As a general principal, Imperial influence and power is strongest in areas directly under the control of Imperial officials and soldiers. This power and influence diminishes with distance from these centres of control, dwindling to nothing at the furthest points. This pattern operates a all levels, with Imperial Centre (Coruscant) acting as the epicentre of Imperial influence in a turbulent Galaxy.

Imperial Military
Possibly the most extensive and powerful force of the Imperial Military is that of its Navy, also known more commonly as, the Imperial Fleet. A tremendous array of starships, from Death Stars to shuttles, are at the Imperial Fleet's disposal.
With so much firepower in its arsenal the Imperial Fleet is both feared and respected. No other fleet in the known galaxy can boast they have the firepower to destroy an entire planet. With that in mind few oppose Imperial Rule, especially in the space lanes.

Imperial Factions
To face a mysterious threat from another galaxy, Darth Viscera packed up most of the Imperial fleet and went to the Unknown Regions of the galaxy. Behind him he left his Admirals, each in charge of separate regions of the Empire.
The Imperial Sovereignty
Telan Desaria was the leader of this group, centered on the planet Thyferra.
Carida
Serena Laran was left in charge of the protection of the Imperial academy on Carida. With her small fleet of ships, including her capital ship the ISD Kelvin, Serena kept the sector secure. However, when Telan Desaria came to visit with an offer she couldn't refuse, Serena Laran joined Carida with the Imperial Sovereignty.
The Imperial Remnant
The Imperial Federacy
Khendon Sevon lead the Federacy, and built up an empire for himself that centered around the research and development of new technologies. Easily the most technologically advanced faction, the Federacy was content to keep inside its own borders for a long while.
The Balmorran Empire
Grand Admiral Taylor Millard was the military leader of the Balmorran Empire (centered around the planet Balmorra), even though he shied away from politics.
The political duties were run by Emperor Tyrel Kiterix who had machinations of taking over both military and political avenues.
A civil war raged between the two with Millard's faction winning. The Balmorran Empire then began overtures with the Hapan Consortium and withdrew into quiet.
