Imperial Leadership

[Elias Akasha]

Hey, gang. :)

I'm browsing the wiki page (http://www.sw-fans.net/wiki/index.php?title=Galactic_Empire) for the Empire, and I'm getting a little confuzzled. It doesn't look like the page has been updated to reflect that we've got a new Empress, and I'm trying to suss out how much of the government info there is.

One of the big things that's got me muddled is the lack of mention of COMPNOR. That not only encompasses the Imperial Security Bureau and Imperial Intelligence, but also the Coalition for Progress, the Coalition for Improvements, and the Sub-Adult Group. Where I'm getting confused is how those marry up with the Ministries listed on the wiki (http://www.sw-fans.net/wiki/index.php?title=The_Central_Government).

If we look at a flowchart (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:Compnor_flowchart.jpg) of what's in COMPNOR, it looks like the Coalition for Progress covers a lot of what the Ministries of Education, Public Works, and Economics would be doing; like the Coalition for Improvements covers the Ministries of Industry, Labour, and Resorces; and that the Ministry of the Interior - which sounds like the Home Office to me - would encompass the ISB at the very least.

Does this mean we've broken up COMPNOR, and spread it out between those Ministries? Or have we got it structured such that the Ministers are effectively our version of the Select Committee for COMPNOR, and that there are no "Ministries"?

Also -

Where does R.S. Esalis fit into all this?

Do we still have a Chancellor, or did they step aside (I don't quite remember that thread)?

Is there a Minister of Defense, or a Minister of War? Or does the military answer directly to the Empress, bypassing the civilian government completely?



Or have we more or less scrapped the ministaries entirely, and reverted back to the Palpatine / Wookieepedia way of structuring things?

I know we don't do much politics stuff at the moment, and this probably seems needlessly trivial... I've just gone and got myself confuzzled.

Dude, I stopped keeping track. We have a bit of an odd set-up that takes ideas from a few different places and throws in our own on top of that.

Esalis is the Director of Intelligence. That much I know.

I could get to work updating the Inquisition page...............because I've never done that really.

I'm playing it by ear. So far my story is planned around a Wookieepedia COMPNOR structure. Eventually I hope to edit the Wiki to reflect that.

[Captain Untouchable]

Esalis is the Director of Intelligence. That much I know.

I thought she was head of COMPNOR... or at least, that she oversaw Intel and the ISB? :huh

COMPNOR (includes ISB and Intel)

R. S. Esalis

I was under the impression it was an OOC thing.

[Tarrick Ragnus]

I'm the new Emperor, though I keep it on the down low. I have my official secret handshake guide to prove it. Naravia Tarkin sent it to me... that's the right Tarkin... right?

*looks around*


right?

[Nen Lev'i]

When Christin mentioned that Esalis was still around, I'm pretty sure she mentioned Imptel and the ISB? I may be misremembering, though. :\

Even so, this is exactly the sort of question that needs answering, if only so half my characters know who their bosses are. :lol

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Haha, Naravia. I'ma remember that one.



It's both IC and OOC, Dai :) Though for the most part I like to keep myself firmly entrenched in the Intel side of things.

[Captain Untouchable]

Yay, I'm not crazy! :dance

[Lowrook]

Yay, I'm not crazy! :dance

Don't go jumping the blaster there spark plug. That's another thread.

[Karl Valten]

Who let the wookie in?

Anywho, back on topic. I'll dig around my computer and external harddrive. Y'roth and I had a ton of documentation on the INQ organizational structure as well as tech and fluff.

Might take a while as the next 3-4 weeks will be a bit crazy for me.

[Park Kraken]

Good lord, that is outdated. I've gone through two commands since the Decimator. And its Admiral now, not Vice-Admiral.

Ima have to figure out how either to retrieve my old wiki account, or create a new one for editing.

EDIT: Oh, nvm. Apparently I'm logged in automatically. I went ahead and edited the 'Notable Ships' section, including all of the SSDs currently in service, excepting the Lusankya, since I wasn't sure whether or not she would remain buried in our alternate timeline.
