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.
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.
Society
The upper class within their society consisted of the nobles of the aristocracy.
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. To achieve their goals, they were not above making use of underhanded tactics in order to support their goals.
