The United States of America
The incredible wealth generated by the Aether Age has grown the United States of America into a gilded giant.

Will you Avenge Seattle?

The League of Five Emperors
Proud and ancient, the League of Five Emperors are the living embodiment of the spirit of the old world, carried into the future.
The Holy Roman Empire
Standing for over a millennium as Europe's Bulwark, the Holy Roman Empire creaks under the weight of tradition and the threat of nationalism. Drawn into war unexpectedly and contending with dozens of cultures and languages, can this antique power remain relevant in an rapidly modernizing world?
The Russian Empire
After achieving victory over the Bolsheviks in the Civil War, the Russian Empire was left shattered, factionalized and headless due to the death of the Tsar. Despite these setbacks Russian technology has advanced rapidly, and their corporations are some of the most powerful in the world. Beset on all sides by enemies, can these disparate factions come together to defend their motherland?
The Anglo-Japanese Pact

With the powerful G.R.A.I.L. system keeping their vast empire in check, the Eye of the Watchman never closes. Are you keeping the crown's interests in mind?
The Empire of Japan
Though the youngest of the Great Powers on the World Stage, the Japanese Empire has made an explosive debut, humiliating the Russian Empire and conquering large parts of the Joseon Empire. Despite their unified appearance, deep rifts between the aristocratic Bushi and the progressive Heimin persist, a wound from a civil war that never healed. Both look to the Chrysanthemum throne for guidance. The Emperor's command has been given, will you obey?
