Name: Jade Empire of Ingen
Motto: Tennoheika Banzai
Species: Yokari, felidaens (humanoid)
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Leadership: Jade Empress Takara, Shogun Matomoro Kanbei
Government Type: The Jade Empire is a feudal monarchy.
Economic System: Mixed economy with elements of Rhine Capitalism. Free market is used for the majority of allocation and production, but the government intervenes to ensure 'fair play' with anti-trust laws. It trades freely with Imaginarium and Ystovia, the two other surviving members of the Laptev Axis and its neighbours on the planet of Laptev.
Social Structure: As a feudal system, land and rank is bestowed by nobles of higher rank. All landowners are of the samurai caste and have certain obligations and financial burdens. There are no racial or hereditary limits on caste or rank, and 'promotion from the ranks' is a semi-typical occurrence.
Culture: The Jade Empire is composed of three races - Yokari, Felidaens and RAI. The Jade Empire is defined by its adherence to family and to responsibilities. The feudal system is a contract between all members and to neglect or abuse societal roles is to risk ostracism or even an order to commit seppuku.

Homeworld: Laptev
Major Population Centers: Neusattar and Legacy
Ancerious Population Centers: Sanrin System, approx. 60 mining and trade colonies of 10,000 or fewer residents
Brief History: Ingen formed the Laptev Axis approximately a century previously with several other states based on the planet of Laptev. Over the intervening years, the Axis expanded its power throughout the galaxy via a series of wars and campaigns against the Vong, Systems Commonwealth, Trathiran rebels and others to become one of the prominent factions in the FB-1 Galaxy. A cataclysmic war with the Barlat Concordiat saw a Pyrrhic victory for the Axis. The Axis, along with several other surviving nations, evacuated to the NS-1 Galaxy. Since then, their major enemy has been one they themselves created - the Merger, an unholy union of cultists and private business.
Important Industry: Medical robotics, spacefaring vessels
Diplomatic Doctrine: Ingen has grown more reasonable of late, but is still aloof and distrusting of foreign races. It prefers diplomatic solutions based on clear demarcation of responsibilities and territories, but is quick to resort to warfare.

Military Doctrine: The Imperial Jade Navy emphasises smaller fleet sizes with a low tooth-to-tail ratio, working with surgical strikes and relying on local superiority to achieve its goals.
Military Branches: The Imperial Jade Navy is the sole true branch of the military. The Jade Marines operate as a distinct branch, but their chain of command is subordinate to the Navy and they rely on the Navy for logistical support at all times.
