Founded as a republic governed by an active senate, this is the mightiest sovereign state in Valendia. The republic became an empire 200 years ago with the strengthening of its military power. Ever since, Archadia began invading its neighbors in an effort to expand its territories. In the past, an emperor is chosen from within the military, but as time passed, the politically powerful House Solidor manage to transform this system by removing all key figures of the military, establishing the leaders of House Solidor as emperors ever since.
