History
In time, a young boy by the name of Charles zi Britannia ascended to the throne and became the harsh ruler of the Holy Britannian Empire.
By the time of the conquest of Japan, the empire controlled more than one third of the entire world.
With the Emperor defeated, Lelouch vi Britannia presided to the capital city where he claimed the throne despite objections from the Imperial Family. Despite their objections, he made use of his Geass power on them to force them to obey his commands and consolidated his control over the empire. Emperor Lelouch's actions included the destruction of the mausoleum that held the remains of previous emperors and also making Suzaku Kururugi his knight where he was designated the Knight of Zero. Among his other acts was disbanding the aristocracy and reshaping the Holy Britannian Empire though he faced much opposition with his actions.
Overview
Government
The capital of the empire was the city of Pendragon that was the home of the Britannian Imperial Family. Leadership of Britannia resided in the hands of the Emperor and succession fell down a family tree of relatives in the Imperial Family.
A territory under the Empires rule was headed by a Viceroy that was typically a member of the royal family. Beneath the Viceroy can also be a Sub-Viceroy should multiple royals be placed in charge of an area.
Within the empire was the Office of Secret Intelligence (OSI) that operated as a secret intelligence agency that was answerable only to the Emperor.
Military
Among the most elite units within the Holy Empire was the Knights of the Round that consisted of twelve elite knights. Its leader was designated as the strongest of their number and known as the Knight of One with the others ranked below from that number.
A position of great prestige and importance was that of a Knight. Members of the nobles were able to appoint a warrior to serve as their personal bodyguard or Knight.
The Britannian Military consisted of a wide range of forces that included army, navy and airforce. Part of it included Search and Rescue teams that were assigned with finding wounded soldiers or the bodies of the deceased following an operation. Another branch were the Royal Marines that were equipped for aquatic based operations.
One unit that was part of the empire was the Britannian Special Research Division or Camelot that was an Irregular unit that had autonomy from the military. Its function was research and development where they created new generations of Knightmare Frames along with weaponry.
Society
The upper class within their society consisted of the nobles of the aristocracy. Average citizens of the empire were referred to as commoners'.
One group within their society was the Purebloods who were Britannians that formed both a political and military faction. They were opposed to the idea of granting honorary citizenship to individuals that were not of Britannia. This was because they claimed that their society and military should not be sullied by the inclusion of foreigners. Their view was that no true Britannia would ever conduct acts of a criminal nature or turn against the empire. To achieve their goals, they were not above making use of underhanded tactics in order to support their goals.
Striking a Britannian officer or an attempt on their life was a capital offence with the perpetrator put to death.
