Khadem Empire

The Khadem Empire (also known as Khadem Khoshkam) is an absolute imperial monarchy whose ruling dynasty has been in power since the 1210 after the collapse of the Pazhel Empire with the death of its last heir, which allowed Abbas Khadem to seize power after a civil war that lasted seven years and began the Khadem Dynasty. Situated between the realms of the Kingdom of Geroa, Khanate of Menggei, and the Rajahnate of Savarastika, the Khadem Empire's location allows for it be a geographically defensible position as well as for it to be situated on major trade routes between the West and the Far East, bringing great riches to its merchants and traders.

Territorial aspirations of the Empire are well known as it has been posturing for years to claim land from the Khanate of Menggei as well as to increase its influence on its nearest neighbor, Geroa, whose region was historically a part of the ancient Ashkan Empire that once spanned the lands. Several small wars between Menggei and Khoshkam in the past few decades have been indecisive for either side with neither being able to strike the winning blow, but both remain wary of each other and tension remain high.
