Akeyuki

Akeyuki (朱雪; Lit. Iron Snow) is the northern empire run by the shogun Tokihakiri Taisei. With a massive force of countless warriors from all walks of life, Akeyuki has a broad mindset, wishing to bring the concepts of equality to the world. With this goal in mind, the countries they annex are allowed to keep their ideals and laws, allowing them to more or less function how they normally did. This is all part of Tokihakiri's goals for an equal world. One ruled by equal rulers, no one above the other.
