The Grand Holy Empire of Magnum Ultra
Magnum Ultra is a military-economic superpower, located in the northern sector of the New Galactic Republic. It is ruled by Emperor Magnus IV with an iron fist. The Ultran Empire follows the Ecclesiarchy as the state religion and holds 32 worlds as its main worlds, with over 100 worlds being exploited as colonies.
Magnum Ultra was founded 2089, as a result of a power crisis in the earth. Petroleum was extremely rare to find, at prices of 78$ per litre, which led to an economic crisis. The Newly created MUSR ( military union of soviet republics) invaded the persian gulf, to take over the last oil deposits in the world. As a response, the NATO invaded Russia, and the middle east, starting the third world war. But besides from the armed conflicts, germany and england were developing advanced technology in space travel, much more advanced than other countries. Together they founded the AGSA (anglo-german space agency) and launched their first drone to outside of their galactic arm. After sucessful reports on a planet designated ARS212, which could support life, the germans sent a small fleet of ships, containing not more than 5,000 men to colonise the planet, named Magnum. The mission was a success. They found the so called ''Iridia Crystals'' on the planet, that could be used as fuel and power source, which led to the defeat of the MUSR in the earth, and the triumph of the NATO. Germany and england were becoming the world's richest nations due the commerce of the crystals, however the colonies in the magnum system were not happy. They were extremely exploited and had no civil rights. So after 235 years as a colony, they stood up for their rights and together with nearby colony worlds, started the revolution that after 3 years would lead to the independence of magnum.
But independece didn't mean peace in the colonies, and magnum was not the only colony. Other worlds like Kor, Nuln, Aurelia XV were also disputing for military and economic dominance. But no one standed a chance against magnum, the previous capital world of the germans. Magnum conquered and annexed all nearby worlds, creating what is knwown today as the Empire of Magnum Ultra, which Ultra means ''Greater Magnum'', since the empire faced a huge expansion after its indenpence.
Magnum Ultra recently achieved its hegemony in the NGR, with its huge manufacturing sector, becoming the strongest economic power.
