The Emperium

The Emperium is one of the more prominent factions on the server, rising in power and filling the vacuum left since the fall of the SpawnMasons and Peacekeepers. Founded by TheDark_Emperor, The Emperium grew slowly, and carefully selected members. Even in their infancy they turned away people who did not meet their criteria. The symbol of the group is the omega, which can be found in various places around spawn, particularly on some of the highways they rebuilt.

History
Back around December 2016, TheDark_Emperor decided he had had enough of his boring life alone and created The Emperium. Having joined 2b2t post-Rusher, it was a surprise how many people decided to help him build up the group. The group grew fairly quickly after a quality member base was formed. While the Emperium is not known by many players it is one of the largest groups currently on the server. Some of the more notable things The Emperium has achieved is bed trapping MrEmoBunny, leaking his picture, and wiping Visionary off the face of the server through Soviet_Infidel's insiding of 1BitJay and MrEmoBunny.

When the Emperium was first founded, it was mostly only a building group. Several bases were made that are still around today that the Emperium takes much pride in. As time began to progress however, the Emperiums main focus started to shift from just building, to other things, including trading and deals with groups like Singularity and Team Coca Cola. This involvement with other groups started to get their name out into the faction community.

However, when the Peacekeepers began fighting anyone around spawn during the summer of 2017, the Emperium decided to take its own form of action. Several battles ensued, both sides receiving its own share of victories. The conflict began to die down as the amount of active members in the Peacekeepers also died down, and the Emperium largely returned to just building bases (including a large obsidian outpost around 2000 blocks from spawn during when the Spanish youtuber joined) and dealing peacefully with other groups.

The Emperium nowadays has stuck to what has kept it active and successful, building bases with members that it can trust and dealing with other groups when it needs to, this includes major contributions to the creations of the United Group Embassy. The Emperium currently is 1 year old.

The Slaughter of Visionary
The small group previously known as the Visionary Organization was the first "real" group to directly challenge the Emperium. Their leader, Sinatra, was fond of a discarded Emperium member known as Simplybob. Simplybob was salty over the constant harassing and theft when he interacted with Emperial members so he convinced Sinatra to have a hostile attitude towards the group. After being insulted and kicked from the discord, the Emperial leadership at the time came up with the idea to inside Visionary through various tactics and force them to disband. In about two weeks, coords were obtained and they set out to grief their sub-tier capital. A few days later a second pair of coordinates were obtained and a second base was griefed. After Visionary's constant failure, lack of good leadership, and a few of their own poorly executed insidings, the discord was deleted and everyone gave up. This challenge of authority and position was foolish on the part of Visionary and gave the Emperium a way to show that they were a serious group.
