Empire: Background[]

The Empire of Man is a nation that is constantly under siege, and is all but surrounded by enemies. Greenskins lead raids and immense Waaaaaaghs! into the Empire, the elusive Skaven emerge from the subterranean Under City to wreak havoc among the lands of the Empire, and the Forces of Chaos pillage the towns and villages of the Southern men both for plunder and favor from their unholy deities and to destroy the world of men.

The Empire is divided into several different provinces that are ruled over by Elector Counts. Each province creates and enforces their own laws and maintains their own economies and armies, which comes to support the Emperor's forces in times of need against any foe, inhuman or not
