Following the entry of the 19th century, Antares would begin to industrialise.

In 1875, a revolution erupts in Aquila, establishing a new democratic government. Seizing the chance, a campaign would be launch which saw another disastrous overture. Amongst the soldiers who fought was the future emperor, Kalvin Tau. His experiences of the carnage inflicted upon his fellow soldiers would dramatically shape his view of war and the conducting of conquest of the Continent.

After the war, Kalvin Tau would succeed Silvius II as Emperor of Antares.

Contemporary In the wake of the 1886 war, Corvus sought a new ally against its new mission to wrestle back control of its lost territories. In 1905, a strategic alliance would slowly form between both nations against Cetus.

On February 10th 1911, Emperor Kalvin proclaimed the beginning of the Centauran Wars with his speech on unity, Antares would enter into a period of war, intervening in the Southern Corvus War shortly afterwards.

After several successful wars against its neighbors, a major setback would arrive during the Columban Campaign as the war reached a stalemate in the mountainous Macer Range. During the campaign, Kalvin Tau would pass, allowing the ascension of Aran Tau as emperor in 1927. Antares would eventually overcome the deadlock through Operation Kataklysm, conquering much of Columba by 1933 and trapping Northern Centauran Alliance (NCA) forces in the mountains.

With the fall of Centauri in 1944, Antares emerged victorious from the Centauran Wars, having defeated the NCA with help from Ursa. A new hegemony was thus formed in Centaura.

Geography The Euskor Basin

The Euskor Basin, also known as the Iron Bank, was a resource-rich region of the Imperium Antares, located on the easternmost end of the Skorpius province. Laying east of the city of Osedon, nearby settlements such as Drausas, Vetus Iter and Durums Soli have prospered owing to the large concentration of industry in the area.

The basin was mapped out as early as the 14th century, but settlers would only appear by the 18th century with prospectors mining traces of iron and gold along the river basin. It would not be until industrialization swept through Antares that the region began to be extensively mined and became a hotspot for the burgeoning Antarean industry.

Beginning in the 19th century, the tetrad of cities surrounding the basin would witness a period of economic prosperity known as the Euskor Dash, wherein thousands flocked to the region for the area's valuable resources. A myriad of factories, mills and mines would open across the valley, churning out steel for automobiles, kitchenware, shipbuilding and construction. Several advancements in production technology would be credited to activity in the basin, such as streamlined heavy machinery.

One of the largest corporations that operated in the basin was the Euskor Steel Konglomerate, formerly known as Aspero Iron & Steel, it acquired several smaller companies and became the primary shipper of steel from the basin. Other notable entities active in the Euskor were the Reikel Arsenal Kompany, Ortus Heavy Industries and Osedon Ironworks. The basin's role in the regional economy gained itself the reputation as an "Iron Bank" by media outlets as it employed nearly half of all locals.

As decades passed, the environment of the basin gradually degraded with industrial waste seeping into the ground and river systems. Locals voiced their concerns to the city councils, but the profits generated by the Bank were too great to pass by on, leaving the "Ferric Four" to continue supporting industrial expansion. The Euskor would see record output when Antares began its war against the Centauran continent, contributing its civilian factories for military weapons and hardware production. High turnouts would allow Euskor Steel to expand even further, acquiring the Normae Railroad Kompany for independent transport, which had many liken the corporation to Orionite monopolies.

Around the same time, several accidents would break out around the basin, attributed to management oversight and the overworking of employees and machines. Numerous fires would sweep through factories and employee housing, pressuring the Ferric Four to establish a dedicated fire department just for the Euskor. These fire stations would be vital as when the Forman War brought the frontline to the Antarean homeland the basin became a regular target for bombing runs. An especially deadly attack set a munitions plant ablaze, destroying it and three block of factories.

By the time Osedon and Vetus iter fell to Compact forces most of the valley had been evacuated and its facilities were left abandoned, a trend that would continue past the dissolution of the Imperium. The remains of the Bank would be placed under the jurisdiction of the Board of Industrial Authority, who partitioned the land alongside other industries. The Euskor Steel Konglomerate would also be broken up into smaller companies, with its most valuable assets controversially coming under Orionite ownership. The damage from the war and bankruptcy of many companies left the Bank to decay, leaving a landscape of desolate factories as a reminder of its former legacy.

Politics Antares is a

multinational empire]] consisting of four nations: Skorpius, Ara, Lupus and Norma (later additions being: Cetus and Aquila). Although the Antarean capital is located in Ara, Skorpius garners much more influence than the other nations. Led by an

emperor]] with a supreme council acting similar to a

privy council]] , Antares was a semi-constitutional monarchy, and thus the emperor still has ultimate but not absolute control over the empire. However, during Kalvin and Aran's rule over Antares, the power of the emperor seems to have become de-facto absolute, due to increasing focus and importance on the military during the Centauran and Forman Wars. Supreme Kouncil

A 100-person consultive assembly that serves that Emperor of the Imperium, carrying out the day-to-day governing of the country. Its members are known as Royal Kouncilors, experts of noble, military and civilian backgrounds who are led by the Head of the Supreme Kouncil.

The body was established by the Tau Family following their unification of the Imperium, aiming to consolidate their power and address regional concerns. Though the council may propose, vote and implement decrees, ultimate approval lays with the emperor who can veto or modify said decree.

Every 4 years, the council elects 6 kouncilors to be Arbiters, who head Archontates (equal to ministries), as advisors to the emperor. Kouncilors relinquish their councillorship upon becoming an Arbiter while still reporting to the council. Arbiters may be reappointed indefinitely, but the emperor holds the power to dismiss one if needed whereas the council requires a majority vote. Each Arbiter oversees matters such as the:

Imperial Treasury Military Affairs State Kulture Industry Foreign Relations Under each Archontate are its Direktorates, which manage specific sectors, for example the Archontate of Industry which includes the Direktorate of Transportation. While all Arbiters appear to hold equal authority, those of the State, Treasury and Military Affairs tended to hold more influence than others, due to their favor by the emperor.

As the council is divided up into of the nobility, military, regional and societal class, each are given their share of seats. The military are allowed to appoint those within their service branch while noble houses are given one representative. When a noble dies during their tenure as kouncilor or Arbiter it is customary for their eldest descendant to fulfill the role, however the emperor may reappoint an Arbiter himself or authorize the council to vote instead.

Meanwhile, the regional and societal group, comprising of subnational civilian, educational and religious leaders, make up most of the council. As for the Head of the Supreme Kouncil, they are often times a member of the royal family; during the reign of Aran Tau, this was held by his younger brother Andrew Tau. Union Of Antarean Youth

Formed in 1919, the Union of Antarean Youth served as an “Antareanization” group for young people across South Centaura. In the occupied regions of Cetus, Aquila, and Vega, children were indoctrinated by the Union and taught about Antarean culture and history in the hopes that they would be raised to become the next generation to live in unity.

Only foreign-born children between the ages of 12 and 20 were allowed into the Union, as children born in Antares had their own education facilities (i.e. regular school). The Union was separated into two divisions: the Lowerclassmen, consisting of children ages 12 to 16, and the Upperclassmen, consisting of teenagers ages 17 to 20. Both of these divisions had their own separate facilities. An Upperclassman school would be abbreviated as UKM, while the former would be abbreviated as LKM. People enrolled in UKM schools were eligible to join the Antarean military, which the enlistment age is 18. This meant if one was 17 and attending a UKM school, they would be able to join the military despite the minimum age requirement. However, most students were not placed in combat roles and instead worked part-time jobs for the military while attending school. This rule changed during the mid-Columban campaign when heavy losses in the mountains called for more personnel.

The Union saw more success in South Centaura, while schools in Riaa and the northern countries performed worse due to partisan and rebel activities/sentiment. Regardless of gender, both LKM and UKM schools taught its students the same skills. Boys were expected to be able to handle what might’ve been considered girls’ activities (sewing, domestic work, etc.), and vice versa (hunting, camping, etc.). This way, both boys and girls were capable of doing one another’s work. Many boys who went on to fight in the Centauran and Forman Wars would find some opposite-gender skills useful in the field, like sewing for suturing wounds or fixing cloth tents

Language

Like other nations, Antares' official language is Librae, given its close proximity with Libra. Unlike other nations though, Antarean Librae (as it will be called) has an unusual difference regarding spelling; as a merger between Old Librae and Librae, all hard Cs are replaced with a K, meaning words like Class and Carrier are now Klass and Karrier in Antarean Librae respectively. This is not the case for words with soft Cs, like Cetus, Cellar, Ice, etc. It's unknown why Antares has chosen to keep this form of spelling.

This writing system is state-wide and used extensively by the government and military; all Skorpii states are specifically written with a K, and Operation Cataclysm was written as "Kataklysm". Military ranks are also affected, with ranks like Colonel and Captain becoming "Kolonel" and "Kaptain". Personal names appear to be affected by this as well, indicated in the short story "Cassius", where the titular character is teased over his name's bizarre spelling. However, the same story implies that personal names are not bound by it, though many people follow it regardless.
