Imperial Mail, abbreviated IM, is a state-owned postal service and courier company in the Empire of Makko Oko. The company has existed in many forms since 1991, with Imperial Mail being the newest iteration of the government postal service, established on December 22nd, 2023 through the Postal Services Act as a government corporation as opposed to an agency. Prior to that, they were the Emperor's Courier Service, a government agency housed under the Ministry of Energy, Infrastructure & Environment, which replaced the National Post Office in December 2019. The National Post Office is the first and longest-lasting iteration of the government postal service.
The company provides mail collection and delivery services throughout the empire. Letters and parcels are deposited in post or parcel boxes, or are collected in bulk from businesses and transported to Imperial Mail sorting offices. Prior to December 22nd, 2023, Imperial Mail did not have a monopoly over letter delivery services and had fierce competition from private companies. Historically, service access has been difficult outside of a major city, with lacking digital technology to purchase stamps online or request a pickup and post offices only being in one out of every 13 cities, with that being exacerbated by the lack of a universal service mandate. That would be resolved with the enactment of the Postal Services Act on December 22nd, 2023.
