The Tartaran Empire is a Monarchist government with representation through a Senate. The Empire has an emphasis on acquiring military, economic and political power through maintaining a large and organized fleet as well as developing a robust and efficient industrial complex focused around mining asteroids or planet cracking.
The Tartaran Empire was founded after the Second Vaygr War, created from a splinter group that broke away from the Debrisian Federation during the fighting. After a brief period, the Empire established itself among the other space faring factions. Quickly growing in its power and influence, the Empire adopted an isolationist approach to the political and military issues that have affected many other factions, only raising their weapons at enemies that have directly threatened them.
When the Calderon Republic fell to internal strife, the Tartaran Empire readily accepted the displaced refugees, knowing all too well the affect such displacement can have on a group of people. As a result of the Republic falling, Emperor Incap the First deigned that any faction looking for security and a cause to work towards and strive for are more than welcome in the Tartaran Empire.
Originally a ‘Democratic Imperium’, Emperor Incap assumed absolute control of the Empire because of the external refugees it brought in, so that the Empire’s values and position couldn’t be compromised by an individual harbouring a grudge from previous conflicts. It is hoped that the Tartaran Empire will make a move for more representation and reassume its former Democratic Imperial government in the future.
The Tartaran Empire's emperor stepped down after his approximately six months of rule, hereafter a new emperor was elected from the five founders, the new emperor whom was chosen as the second emperor was Nauvran.
The Tartaran Empire is based on Elwyn for the foreseeable future. The server can be found here: sm.elwyneternity.com:4242

Current Chairman of Industry: Dolovo
Military Representative: Nauvran
The Industrial sector, named Iapetus Heavy Industries, is the life blood of the Empire, building and constructing, mining and refining, all important to the upkeep and continuation of the Empire. Builders, Combat Engineers and Miners all ensure the smooth operation of the Industrial sector. It is important that people wishing to build ships exhibit proof of their ability for us to maintain an appropriate standard of ship construction.
Positions:-
Builders:
Entrusted with the construction of ships, turrets and stations. They also operate the factories that produce the materials and goods the Empire uses.
Combat Engineers:
Works closely with the Navy, and is responsible for the repair and maintenance of ships. Because of how closely many CEs work with the Navy, they are considered a full member of the military and subject to the same duties and promotions as the rest, but aren’t required to engage in combat.
Miners:
Responsible for mining operations on asteroids and planets.

The Imperial Senatorial System
The Tartaran Empire’s political system is made up of the Imperial Throne, the Marshal Board and the Senate:-
-The Imperial Throne is the highest seat in the Empire, and the ultimate responsibility. The responsibility of the Emperor comes down to the making sure the Empire has a clear course and goal, and can make absolute decisions. To further this, if the Senate is in a dead lock over what action to take over an issue, the Emperor may choose to forgo the entire voting process and make the decision for them.
-The Marshal Board is made up of the top 3 leaders of the Imperial Navy and are responsible for its defense and maintaining the peace. The Marshal Board serve as mediators and advisors to the Emperor and Senate and act as the judges during trials. Effectively, they are the law in the Empire and have the power to depose an Emperor, but only if it is a unanimous vote, and if it passes, each member of the Board must resign their commission and hand the position over to their successor.
-The Senate represents the normal citizenry of the Empire. It is the Senate’s responsibility to handle votes and act as the jury during trials.
Rules and Regulations:-
1. You must be mature. It is very important that you are able to work together with other members of your faction as well as follow orders. Disruptive behaviour is also forbidden. This way we maintain a high morale and unity. It is also highly advisable that you are able to communicate clearly with others as this makes collaboration a lot easier.
2. The organization and structure of the faction is important. Orders from superior officers are absolute, unless countered by the orders of a higher ranked officer. Orders are expected to be carried out, and officers are expected to be respectful. Any issues that arise must be brought before a higher ranked officer.
3. The Tartaran Empire follows a strict code of military discipline and code. The assignment of ships is an absolute, and the customization of assigned ships is forbidden, save for the interior, as long as it doesn’t compromise the functionality of the vessel too much. For this reason, the use of personal ships is discouraged, but it is allowed in cases of emergencies. Also, assigned vessels are only assigned to one member at a time, and it’s generally undesirable to use someone elses ship unless, again, it’s an emergency.
4. The use of a skin is restricted to Tartaran Empire skins; however the face can be personalized to grant individuality and a personal touch. Include the Empire’s motto in your application form. Members are also allowed to use their own ‘civilian’ skin. AS THERE ARE NO TE SKINS AT THE MOMENT (THEY’RE STILL BEING MADE) THE RULE WILL NOT BE ENFORCED FOR THE MEANTIME. THIS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WHEN THE NEW SKINS ARE READY.
5. Relations with other players and factions are important. They are to be treated with respect at all times, as the image of our faction is more important than your personal feelings. You represent our faction, and you are expected to upload not only your image, but the factions.
6. No parking large ships on the homeworld, or cluttering up the home sector with junk, as it will be deleted and the guilty party will be penalized. You have to PM the motto to a founder, don't post it in the application form.
We have our own site at http://tartaranempire.enjin.com/home. All members are expected to register on the site. It is where we communicate with each other outside the game and the different sections have their own forums.
