Brief History:
The Geth Empire traces its origins to a pivotal mont in history when the first Gethians discovered the dallion of Life.It is an ancient and powerful artifact said to be imbued with the essence of the Goddess Orsi, giving its wearer the power to heal any wounds and interact with the dead. The discovery of the dallion of Life unified the scattered smaller city-states and settlents of the region under a single banner, forming the Geth Empire.
The Geth Empire, since its establishnt is governed as a theocracy.The ruler, known as the High Shepherd, is both the political leader and the head of the Church The capital city, Sanctora, houses the grand Temple of Life, where the dallion of Life is kept and revered by not just the nobility, but any pilgrim visiting it.
Gethian culture is deeply rooted in the worship of the Goddess Orsi. The people of the Geth Empire are known for their hospitality, altruism, and a strong sense of community.Festivals celebrating life, health, and the harvest are common, reflecting their gratitude towards life. Education, particularly in the fields of dicine and agriculture, is highly valued, and the empire boasts so of the most advanced knowledge in these areas.
Despite their peaceful nature, the Gethians maintain a formidable military force known as the Order of Light. This army is not only a defense chanism but also a symbol of their dedication to protecting the sanctity of life. On multiple occasions, their army clashed with Ishillian forces, resulting in the most devastating wars this side of the world has ever witnessed.

The Harvest War - AE 2001-2003A surprisingly deadly drought ravaged the fields, never before seen and never repeated since. It caused the Empire to almost fall into a civil war state, fighting over food and resources..
