   the Sollan Empire is a vast interstellar empire spanning multiple star systems in the Sun Eater series. It's heavily inspired by the Roman Empire, with Latin-derived terminology and similar political structures. Their population is many trillions of humans and they have existed since the Mericanii were defeated approximately 10,000 years ago in the foundation war. Much of history before then is lost, however classic literature as known today (Renaissance and earlier) has survived, though much is muddled e.g. the distinction between Siddhartha and King Arthur (Sirartha) has been lost. The founding nation of the Sollan Empire was Britain, and their influence is still felt though not as strongly as ancient Rome.
