| Vapor has been around since 2012. Since then, we've had many key players come and go, as well as a significant reboot in 2018, which has left many articles contained in this wiki out-of-date or entirely non-canon. Rather than simply remove parts of our history that no longer apply, we have decided to preserve them in our "Legends Canon," so that they may exist outside of Vapor's proper and current canon history. This is one of those articles. |
The Ming Empire was a major power in Zhao prior to it's collapse. Believed to have originated somewhere in modern day Inesea, the Ming Empire retains cultural roots in the Socialist Kingdom of Sri Tschow, the Former Aristocratic States of Inesea and the People's Democratic Republic of Pavlostani
History[]
The Ming Empire began somewhere in modern day Inesea. Following consolidation of power, the Empire began a brutal takeover of the southern Khamulese Empire, assassinating General Khamul and subjugating the nation. The Ming then quickly swept south dominating the Apelanese tribes. Following the securing of the western Zhaoan seaboard, the Ming Empire dominating the Tschowan islands.
The Ming Empire collapsed from internal and economic strife some decades later.
Legacy[]
Ming culture is still very strong in the Socialist Kingdom of Sri Tschow. A lasting Ming ethnicity exists throughout Zhao. Several Ming cities have been discovered, the largest being the former university city of Guangdong, renamed Percepliquis by the native Pavlostani. The discovery of Percepliquis led to the discovery of lost technology, the most significant being Ming fire, a highly flammable substance.
Compared to the northern nations, the Apelanese tribes were quick to throw off the Ming ways and little semblence exists between their modern culture and the ancient Ming Empire.
In 1904, the Percepliquis province of Pavlostani seceded and declared a resurgent Ming Empire. Following their defeat and territorial devastation in 1909, the surviving leaders reorganized into the Ming Remnant and became a dominating terrorist organization committing atrocities in the name of the Empire.
The genocide in Voerdeland committed by the Socialist State of Khamul was partially inspired by similar treatment from the Ming Empire towards the Khamulese following the Erivan Uprising.
The Pavel's claim a distant relation to the old Ming Emperors.
