Empire (Assyria Alone)

The Empire is a vast theocratic monarchy that has long existed for millennia with the Near Eastern region of Assyria at its heart. It is, in fact, the only existing civilization in the world and perhaps the most adaptive, despite its primitive, bronze-age technology and its heavy dependence on its slave-based rural economy. The Empire was found around 4967 BC and has since been ruled by powerful tribal chieftains who declared themselves "god kings" of the known world. While home to a variety of different languages, the official language is Asaki (Akkadian according tohe OTL)
