The Serene and Bright Empire or the Nenmei Empire (寧朙帝國, Wago: Nenmei Taikoku; Nen Yashimese: 寧朙の帝國, Yasuakikuni or Nōmyōkoku; etc.), commonly referred to in its Yashimese name Nomyo (寧朙國), is an island state occupying the Southern Yashimese archipelago in Sinju, thus only bordered by Akitsukuni, Jeongmi and Meisaan by sea. The archipelago contains over 1,093 charted islands within its borders, most of the Home Islands inhabited by the population of about 81 million, with notable overseas domains and territories in the continents of Uju and Yeongju. The Home Islands' reach from the Sea of Yashima to the Kurusu Sea.
A Yashimese state, it shares a common cultural heritage with Akitsukuni in many respects, however influenced greatly by Meisaan in the years following the division of the ancient state in the early 13th century. Historically at odds with the former and warm with the other, Nomyo, since the end of the Eulhae War, has been the mediating character between the traditionally opposing polities, regarded as the political and cultural amalgamation of both capable of communicating into each other diplomatically. However, in Yashimese terms, Nomyo and Akitsukuni are regarded as socio-cultural opposites, Akitsukuni being highly nationalistic, militaristic, and conservative contrasting with Nomyo being generally pacifistic, royalist, progressivist and liberal. Through complicated circumstance, Nomyo is both pacifier, mediator, proxy and friend to two opposing nations, an equalizing "third-party" that interacts in its own right and own interests in the world stage.
Today, the Empire is regarded to be among the current superpowers, with a strong military (primarily focused on the Navy) holding vast diplomatic and economic influence over nations of Uju, Yongju and the farther reaches of Jungju. Nomyo is also a prominent member of the Sinju Union and the Congress of Nation's security council. It is also the leader of the Nenmei Commonwealth, the official military and diplomatic international organization which is regarded by many to be the successor of the Nenmeinese Colonial Empire. Since 2005, The Empire also claims it is the continuation of the ancient Yashima empire and its legal rightful successor.
Etymology
The name Nōmyō is a direct romanization of the Yashimese phrase 寧朙, meaning "serene and bright", which is in utilized as the Yashimese translation for the official title of the Empire; the Serene and Bright Empire (though the Yashimese phrase directly translates to "The Serene and Bright State"). The official rendering of the name would be Nenmei Teikoku (寧朙帝國), in the Wa language.
Due to the very official nature of the name Nomyo, Imperial citizens, among others, refer to the Empire as 寧䔢國, Nanhwakoku (in Wa) or Neiwakuni (in Yashimese), usually translated as "Serene Blossom Nation", or 䔢國, "Blossom Nation".

History
Pre-Yashimakoku
Yashima Era
By the 3rd century, most of the feudal kingdoms of the Yashimese archipelago were vassals of Tianqi, enjoying de facto independence due to their largely difficult to access location amongst the Tianqian domains. The kingdoms continuously warred with each other in feudal conflicts, though the majority of this fighting was localised in either the North Yashimese archipelago or the South Yashimese archipelago.
In the 8th century, a strong, semi-unified Yashimese state was formed, with a central Imperial Court located in Nara-kyo in the North Yashimese archipelago. During this period, an upper class of scholars and intellectuals emerged, along with literature and Buddhist-inspired art and architecture. In 760, Emperor Yamabe moved the capital from Heijou to Miyako. This marked the beginning of the Miyako period (794–1185), during which a distinctly indigenous Yashimese culture emerged, noted for its art, poetry and prose, though this period also saw the deepening of language divides between the North and South Yashimese regions, also divided by the Sea of Yashima.
The fall of Tianqi led to the initial rise of Northern Yashima, which gained a solid position off the coast of Uju as a trading stop between the western civilisations and the remnants of Tianqi, benefiting from the post-Tianqi conflict by acting as a safe alternative to trading directly with the dangerous Uju mainland. Southern Yashima also benefited from trading with southern and eastern civilisations, though this difference in trading partners again worsened the difference between the two regions.
Yashima's feudal era was characterized by the emergence and dominance of a ruling class of warriors, the samurai. In 1083, a rebellion was led against the North Yashimese monarchy by South Yashimese feudal lords, the beginnings of the eventual split. Invasions from the mainland in 1274 and 1281 were repelled by an arguably united front under Emperor Yoritomo, though hope for the continued survival of the Yashimese state was weak. By the late 14th century, Yashima was already mostly divided on North and South lines. In 1336, the overthrowing of the North Yashimese Emperor Daigo by the South Yashimese Emperor Takauji set in motion what would become known as the Hōkai period ("Disintegration"), which lasted from 1336 to 1410.
A loose confederation of Northern Yashimese states endeavoured to restore the North Yashimese Imperial lineage, opposing South Yashima and effectively splitting the region into two main factions. At the same time, the Northern Yashimese feudal lords also fought each other for supremacy, heavily confusing the situation and prolonging the conflict. In South Yashima, the presence of a South Yashimese Emperor allowed the South Yashimese feudal states to be more closely united, though internal disputes also occasionally became full-scale wars. During this time, trade with external powers declined greatly, as trade instead moved to Jeopseon and other neighbouring states.
In 1410 the South Yashimese Emperor Tachibana was suddenly assassinated, abruptly ending the conflict that had lasted almost a century. The Northern Yashimese clans rapidly attempted to restore the Northern Imperial House, declaring Tachibana's successor, Emperor Junsui, illegitimate. In 1411, with the coronation of Emperor Hanazono in North Yashima and the subsequent Declaration of the Dual States, Yashima ceased to exist.
Nenmei Jidai and Emperor Junsui
Shortly after the declared division of the Yashimese Empire, the current head of the Yashimese Imperial House's southern lineage (now the Nenmei Imperial House) and son of Emperor Tachibana, Sakanden no Junsui was enthroned Emperor after a common vote of a temporary council that consisted of the southern faction's most loyal feudal lords and closest members of the Nenmei Clan. Declaring the rump state the "Bright and Serene Empire", Emperor Onnyorai, knowing the turmoil that developed in the north, heralded the "Era to Four Actions of Order" (順番四種操作時代, Junban shishu sōsa jidai), a series of reforms that worked to centralize the government, reinstate order and rebuild the young empire following the events of the Hōkai period. Throughout the reformation, Emperor Junsui also purged any dissenting nobles, replacing them with loyalists with enough capability to rule to prevent any feudal warring and maintenance of central authority.

Government
Nomyokuni's government works on a Democratic Executive Monarchy under a regulated devolved quasi-confederal system. The head of state and (occasionally) government is the Emperor of the Serene and Bright Empire (寧朙帝; Nenmeitai), holding executive powers and thus his/her branch of government serves as the administrative and executive while the unicameral legislature serves both as judiciary and legislative. Adhering to a very modified Gungting structure, the Empire utilizes a "Ruler among the People" structure where the Empress, currently Tennyorai, acts as a fellow legislator and an executive over the unicameral legislature, the Imperial Serene Court (帝國寧殿, Taikwoku Nyoden), which consists of the 120 unelected feudal lords and 200 elected local chiefs representing respectively the noble states and the constituencies within these polities.
Since the beginning of the Post-Eulhae era, the Imperial throne has since relegated most of its powers through the Chancellery and the Imperial Serene Court.
Monarchy and Chancellery
The Monarchy of the Nenmei Empire is the de jure head of state and government of Nomyokuni and the nominal ruler of all its holdings. The current monarch is 27-year old Tennyorai. The Empress is held in high regard and deep reverence among the Nomyokunese population, sometimes warranting a quasi-divine status even with growing support for more secularism in the empire. As codified by the constitution, all government offices are required to hang an official portrait as a sign of loyalty to the Empire. The Empress is regarded to be the living embodiment of the Empire.
Being an executive monarchy, the Empress of Nomyokuni serves as the sovereign convenor of the Imperial Court, with her Imperial Chancellor (currently Tateyasu of Kaino) serving as her civilian counterpart. The Empress, unlike most monarchs in Tiandi today, participate heavily in politics, usually in an interventionist fashion. The Empress can dissolve the Imperial Court, appoint special members and pass imperial decrees.
Imperial Chancellery
The Imperial Chancellery is the de facto head of government of the Empire, tasked with presiding the Imperial Court in the Emperor's absence and coordinating and convening the departments that make up the Imperial Council of State (禦官, kyōkan), the administrative and executive arm of the Imperial government. The Chancellery is usually equated to a Prime Minister in terms of responsibility and their installment in the position. However, the Empire does not appoint the Chancellery through election (much like the legislature), rather through Sortition.
The expected standards and the set criteria for Chancellorship is very high, and the position usually reserved to most educated and experienced scholars and officials, usually professors, savants and revered bureaucrats. Today, much of the executive work in the Empire rests under the office of the Chancellor, the Court and the Council, giving it an impression of a de facto constitutional monarchy.
Legislature
The Serene Imperial Court (帝國寧庭, Taikwoku Nyōden) is the unicameral parliament of the Nenmei Empire, with XXX occupied seats as of 2014, consisting of Imperial Nobility, senior officials and scholars, and elected citizens. The court is officially the primary advisory and reporting entity to the Empress, for her to be updated on the current issues in and out the empire to authorize or act accordingly on it. The Court is de facto a legislative body as well, proposing and discussing issues, laws or projects to be sealed under the name of the Imperial Office. Due to this, the Serene Court is the highest organ within the Imperial Government, the source of all imperial authority below the Empress.
According to the Imperial Constitution, the Imperial Court has a limit to the seats of the four sectors of the legislature, with the elected deputies (Ban) forming the largest. In its current form, the Serene Imperial Court has 300 total seats, with 220 reserved for the deputies. In the absence of the Empress, the Imperial Chancellor is tasked to convene the court on her behalf.
Politics
The current ruling faction within the Court is the People's Society for Progress (PSP)… a monarchist center-left party in coalition with the Imperial Verdant Party (IVP), Four Stone Society (FSS), and the Imperial Democratic Front (IDF). The People's Society for Progress is regarded as one of the Four Great Parties along with the IVP, Ukaijo and the Serene Party.

Military
Historically dependent to feudal militia and divided contingents of the Imperial Guard, Nomyo's numerous reforms throughout the late Nenmei to mid-Yusei era led to the organization and establishment of the Nenmei Imperial Armed Forces (NIAT). In its current form, the NIAT is divided into the Army, Navy, Air Force and the Gendarmerie a fifth independent branch, the Space Forces is responsible for space programs (both military and civilian) and strategic warfare. There are currently 788,567 active personnel within the last four branches.
In similar fashion to the great powers, Nomyo is a nuclear state, having developed a comprehensive nuclear weapons program throughout the Akitsu-Nomyo Cold War. According to disclosed reports, there have been 200 nuclear weapons stockpiled within the Empire's home borders.
