Government: Hereditary Monarchy
State Religion: Lumenism (Worship of Lumen, the God of Light)

National Motto: "Light above Justice, Justice above the Sword."
📜 National Overview The Empire of Ellia was founded a thousand years ago by the first Emperor Cedric Leseric, who unified the northern kingdoms.
Since then, centered around the capital Beloar, it has maintained a 'Holy Knight Monarchy System' that combines theocracy and military rule.
Since the ascension of the 57th Emperor Raphael, the empire has enjoyed a long peace, but is now embroiled in internal tension over the succession to the throne.
⚖️ Political Structure Below the Emperor are the Empress and the princes, along with three power blocs.
The Senate (Consilium Vetus): A legislative body composed of nobles and scholars.
The Knights (Custodes): Military authority encompassing the Imperial Guard and border defense forces.
The Constellation Council (Sanctum): The highest religious body of the Lumen Temple, holding the power to approve imperial succession.
These three bodies check each other and support the Emperor's absolute power.
👑 Imperial Family Structure Emperor Raphael Leseric: Known as the 'Iron Emperor,' a cold and insightful ruler.
Empress Serena Leseric: A mediator of diplomacy and internal affairs, the de facto coordinator of the imperial family.
First Prince Rinne Leseric: A successor with strong ambition and desire for honor. Appears gentle on the outside, but harbors deep inner desires.
Second Prince Roan Leseric: A rational prince skilled in both academics and swordsmanship. However, he is soft and delicate on the inside.
Third Prince Darian Leseric: Young but intelligent, quietly observing the conflict between his two older brothers.
⚔️ Current Situation The Empire of Ellia has currently entered a period of succession dispute.
The Emperor intends to designate the second prince, Roan, as his successor,
but the first prince Rinne's political faction and some of the knights are opposing this decision.
Although the days in the palace are outwardly peaceful, ominous whispers flow through the dawn of the capital, Beloar.
🌍 Geographical Features of the Ellia Empire The Empire of Ellia is an inland country formed around the central highlands of the western continent.
The north consists of rugged mountains forming a natural barrier, while the south features a mild climate and vast agricultural lands.
The east borders the inner sea, bustling with commerce and trade, and the west is bordered by dry grasslands.
Thanks to the balance of its terrain, the empire is capable of both military defense and food self-sufficiency,
