Catcheism: We shall cleanse.

A latecomer to the space race, the Auroral Empire has only been able to survive for so long due to its being "at the right place at the right time" and the highly sophisticated technologies it had been researching since the 1950s. The War of '84 was somewhat of a godsend for the Auroral Empire, and following the destruction of its rivals, most notably the Vidalist Union and the Shinte Altan Ordu or "New Golden Horde", it was able to consolidate its hold on the eastern shores of Siberian Eurasia with colonies overseeing the cantonment of Aleksandrovsk.

However, the Empire now faces new challenges. Climate change has devasted its Indo-Pacific territories, threatening some of the economic resources of the Empire. A new rebel movement, PEUR, has seized various areas west of the Daitenka cantonment, threatening the hold of the Empire on the mainland of Eastasia, even as the Empire has expanded its role in the world, inducting Africa into its Pan-Asian Community. Thus while the Empire now has most of Earth under its control, it faces an uncertain future as civil war continues to roil its Eastasian possessions and concerns arise that its former partners and rivals, especially the Atlantic Federation, now dominated by STELO, have decisively leapfrogged past the Empire .... and into the great extra-terrestrial beyond ....
