The Empire of the Avalon, or The Avalonian Empire

Founded upon the destruction of the Gorian empire, with its capital in the newly-constructed city of Avalon in Nagrand, Draenor, the Empire is less than a decade old. However, thanks to extensive modeling off of the ancient and widely successful Roman Empire in Ancient Time on Earth, it is well-formed and quickly growing more comfortable with itself.

 Its first Imperator, the former Earth-Born human (Harry Potter), claimed the throne of the Gorian Empire according to ancient ogre tradition. However, in a symbolic gesture, he announced its disbandment and the equally symbolic destruction of its ancient capitol, Highmaul. This was done to provide a proverbial 'clean slate' as the new Imperator did not want his House to be tarnished by any association with the long, cruel and bloody history of the Gorian Empire.

Furthermore, it is not a true dictatorship in the classical sense, in that while the Imperator still has absolute power, there is an established Senate, formed of members of every race that is a member of the Empire, even the defeated Ogres. Each Senator must swear an oath under truth potion to never proliferate corruption, to never ferment unlawful rebellion, and to do his utmost to aid in the betterment of the Empire and the happiness of its people.

The Imperator also establish a Great Charter, based on the Magna Carta of Middle-Ages England and the Constitution of the United States. This document is to ensure that the Sovreign Rights of The People are not violated in any way, shape, or form. It also established a once-a-month audience with the Imperator and The Senate, where The People might bring forth problems or requests that they feel need to be answered. This Audience last five days. Finally, it establishes a State of the Empire address, which is essentially the State of the Union for the USA.

The Military of Avalon answers directly to the Imperator, NOT to the senate, although the senate is given significant leeway in advising the Imperator in matters of war as well as politics. This military is based off of the greatest eras of each individual method of battle. Ground combat is based around the Roman Legions and Pike phalanxes of old, while the navy and limited air force are based around early to mid world war two.
