The Empire of Aquitar
In the days before the Empire, Aquitar was a sick and dying country. It's rulers had once been majestic benevolent kings, but, by 1789, Shrouis XVI had reigned in luxury and despotism. By the time that the Moles, nomads from the east, had burrowed into Aquitar, the country was at the threshold of revolution. The leader of the nomads, Louis de Bore, would find himself quickly involved in the affairs of the country, his charismatic speeches and tactical skill resulted in the successful overthrow of the Corelingian Dynasty. Unfortunately he would soon succumb to wounds sustained in the final battle, and was posthumously styled Moleon I, Emperor of Aquitar. His adopted son would become the defacto first Emperor of Aquitar, as Moleon II.
After taking the throne, Moleon II began a war to retake lost lands. To the horror of noble families only the most skilled soldiers rose in the ranks. Farmers and city workers that joined the Grand Army were given Dukedoms and other noble titles, pushing out the old class for actually competent allies. His reforms didn't just stop at the troops employed but their equipment and the tactics developed. In a few years, Aquitar expanded it's borders into its ancient holdings, pressing against their old foes.
