The Alemannic Empire (Alemannic: Alemannisches Reich (sometimes Alemanisches Reich, especially in Tudonian), pronounced: [ˌʔaːləˈma(ː)nɪʃəs ˈʁaɪ̯ç] (Mascyllary) or [ˌɑːləˈmɑ(ː)niʃəs ˈrɛɪ̯x] (Tudonian)), or, alternatively, Alemannia (Alemannic: Alemannien (sometimes Alemanien, especially in Tudonian), pronounced: [ˌʔaːləˈma(ː)ni̯ə̯n] (Mascyllary) or [ˌɑːləˈmɑ(ː)ni̯ə̯n] (Tudonian)), was an empire located within the Eastern Asuran region of Alemannia in the 115 years between 1409 AD and 1524 AD. The Empire contributed greatly to the expansion and dominance of Alemannic culture within most of Alemannia and to the demise of Nemanic culture with the exception of the Similians. Once a major military power and technological center in North-Eastern Asura, the Empire collapsed in 1524, following the assassination of Kaiser Willem Uller I, last of the Salian dynasty, by the Duke of Boehmern.

Today, the territory once controlled by the Empire is mostly part of Mascylla and Tudonia. The shared Alemannic culture has contributed to greater cooperation between some of its successor-countries, most notably, between Mascylla and Tudonia, resulting in the creation of the Alemmanic Treaty, and paved the way for the later formation of the ATSA.

Furthermore, calls for the creation of a new Alemannic state (Alemannic: Großallemannien) are still present within parts of Alemannic society, with some calling for a unified pan-Alemannic state. However, support for such movements and ideas varies greatly among regions of Alemannia.

Alemannic Re-unification

Alemannic re-unification remains an important political issue within modern Alemannic politics. Attempts to bring Alemannic nations closer together has seen some successes in the creation of binding treaties during the 20th century. However other political figures have stated a more extensive agenda, including the creation of a single-market, currency union and even the formation of a single Alemannic state to counter external influences within the region.

In Tudonia, pan-Alemannism has been a controversial topic since the establishment of the modern Tudonian nation after the Tudonia Unification Wars in 1836. Although some have called for a Großalemannien in the years following unification, most nationalism in Tudonia has been specifically Tudonian nationalism rather than pan-Alemannic nationalism.

The idea of a single Alemannic state has become especially important in the early to mid-20th century. By then, however, Tudonian national identity had formed to be relatively powerful among the general population. After the Second Great War, pan-Alemannism in Tudonia has mostly been advocated for by various radical or extremist groups from different parts of the political spectrum, and, because of this, it is now generally associated with such groups as the KEA.

Eventhough the concept of an Alemannia unified under a single country is not a very widespread one in Tudonia, a core element of Tudonian foreign policy has been the establishing and fostering of warm relations with other Alemannic countries.
