Revision as of 09:57, 29 December 2012
The political roster of the Amarr Empire, or some would speak of the political powers blocs, can be slice in to two dimensions. First, along the vertical level, with it's political groups; secondly, along on a social level, with it's imperial estates. Each power block has is own goals, affiliation and tools to influence imperial politics. On the vertical axis — along provinces and the royal heirs — can the Empire be generally divided into five blocks of opinion, each shaped by one of the heirs and most prevalent in that House's home regions.[1] Those mold the political groups, which articulate a large part of the imperial politics. On a social level — along the imperial estates — can the Empire be as well divided into several blocks. Those imperial estates have strict rules and and traditions, which also shapes the imperial landscape. Visitors to the empire should understand that those groups aren't mostly made of people which have by choice associating oneself with a political group. It is more the case that the hierarchical feudal system — with it's alliances and the estates — bounds you to a certain block. Within the capsuleer class are those boundaries not the same and a "free" align to a certain group is more likely.

The Empire has several political groups, which are mostly affiliate with one of the royal families or vise versa. As for the latter, a strong case can be made, that it is the families which are the main actors in the political system; and therefore the actual political group. Nevertheless, the resulting image would be the same: Five main political groups and two political circles. Those two political circles are result of the empires history, more precisely the Moral Reforms. Which transferred the power of the Council of Apostles to the Emperor and the newly formed Privy Council.[2] One side believes in the old ways, as the other side wants even a stronger central power.
The main political groups are the:

The Clergy stands, in the same time, in and out side this order.
