Vostrum

Vostrum was founded by the Calradian mercenary Archacos, one of a number of rogue commanders who broke away from the Empire during its expansion. Unlike some, who tried to reproduce the Empire's republican heritage, he chose to rule as a god-king. His dynasty lasted for generations, until imperial troops overran it and smashed every haloed statue of Archacos and his successors into rubble. Even today, western and northern imperial senators accuse families from this region of being closet monarchists.
