Remnants of what was once the human population that was reduced to drastically less than 100 million, following the global thermonuclear ctaclysm in the third decade of the second millennium AD, re-emerged after a few millennia after resettling themselves in nearly post-contaminated soil following their confrontations with the harsh wasteland environment. These settlements, followed by a slow and steady reconstruction of what was left of their civilization before the outburst, were met with attacks from wasteland peoples more often than usual, among them being the tribes that later make up the Goths that will soon emerge as a significant people since the arrival of the semi-mythical Witch-Queen Basina (ca. 2716? to 4015?) and are to persist to this day. One of the post-thermonuclear wasteland states to rise in the early fourth millennium per the era of the Radioactive Ice Age was a loose confederation of Gothic tribal kingdoms under the nominal suzerainty of Great Oium, followed by several other states that developed across the Old World. Shifting from neo-paganism and chthonic nature worship since the days of its High King Ottokar, Great Oium in 4855 ultimately embraced Heterodoxy when High King Valamir the Great, converted from neo-paganism in response to a threat from the Northern States led by Nodengard where he forcibly subdued the 'greykin' witches as the cause and profiteers of internal division. At an unknown time, Great Oium has seen a general revival, most especially of Gothic culture as well as aesthetic derived from the subculture, starting with the re-emergence of types such as Fairy Goth, Tribal Goth, and Medieval Goth, to say the least, and a profound interest in music and the arts, thus beginning the synthesis of pre- and post-cataclysmic wasteland dark alternative scene cultures/subcultures that defined the kind of 'Gothic' culture for the following millennia. Since the fifth millennium, Great Oium disintegrated into smaller warring cliques, shortly prior to the Finngolian-Hwan Yoke during the hazardous Great Radioactive Winter of 128.M4-883.M5, until they were liberated and finally reunified by the Crown of Eisenheim under another loose confederation called the Old Dominion as of the early sixth millennium. in 22nd May 6420, Armand crowned himself Emperor of All Gothica and established the Greater Gothic Empire from the defeated rival Gothic states and the territories released by the declining empires of Finngolia and Hwan, and under his successors the country had significantly expanded through wasteland reclamation, conquest and direct annexation to become what the country is now, stretching across the entire Eastern Hemisphere from one end of the North Merican continent on the west to the other one of the East. By the start of the First Pax Gothica, it had grown to include all of the territories almost corresponding to pre-Cataclysmic Afro-Eurasia and thereabouts, but not limited to most of West Antarctica, pre-Cataclysmic Greenland, several islands in the shrinking Pacific Ocean, and what was then the Pacific Northwest. The Empire played a significant and more decisive role in the Great Inter-Hemispheric War, and emerged victorious as an unparalleled dominant hyperpower as well as arch-rival to both the Merican Commonwealth and the Oceanic Union since the beginning of a cold war. The eras preceding that of Empresses Victoria I and Victoria II, respectively, saw the most spectacular technological breakthroughs of the unusually distant future ever imagined, such as the Webway and pico-technology, and also saw the settlement and terraformation of the Moon, Mars and Venus by the Empire itself. Since the reign of the former, it embarked on a massive-scale reconstruction program, part of her vision for its future and the upcoming Second Pax Gothica, starting with the renewal and expansion of its capital Necropolis into a supermassive mega-city and the construction of a multi-dimensional city axis between the Pacific and Atlantic seas.

Gothica (Gothic pronunciation: /ˈɡɒθɪkə/), officially the Greater Gothic Empire (Gothic: Großgotisches Urweltreich; Latin: Magnum Imperium Gothicum; Anglish: Michelgothish Urworldriche) and formally styled as the Greater Gothic Empire of the Goth Realm (Großgotisches Urweltreich der Gotenreich, Michelgothish Urworldriche of the Gothenrealm, Magnum Imperium Gothicum Regnum Gothae)

Remnants of what was once the human population that was reduced to drastically less than 100 million, following the global thermonuclear ctaclysm in the third decade of the second millennium AD, re-emerged after a few millennia after resettling themselves in nearly post-contaminated soil following their confrontations with the harsh wasteland environment.

One of the post-thermonuclear wasteland states to rise in the early fourth millennium per the era of the Radioactive Ice Age was a loose confederation of Gothic tribal kingdoms under the nominal suzerainty of Great Oium, followed by several other states that developed across the Old World. Shifting from neo-paganism and chthonic nature worship since the days of its High King Ottokar, Great Oium in 4855 ultimately embraced Heterodoxy when High King Valamir the Great, converted from neo-paganism in response to a threat from the Northern States led by Nodengard where he forcibly subdued the 'greykin' witches as the cause and profiteers of internal division.
