Imperium Tempestas Ferri (ITF) (ITΦ)

The Imperium Tempestas Ferri (abbreviated as ITF or ITΦ), is the empire created by Tukal do be his primary conduit for influencing the events of Erdland. It is usually translated as the Empire of Red Lightning, but is also referred to as the Tukalish Empire, the Red Empire, and simply Red Lightning. After the ascension of Nukal to the throne of ITF, and its subsequent expansion, it has also been called the Grand Empire, or the Shadow Lords.

The capital city of the empire has always been the city of Tukal, the massive metropolis where the majority of the empire's bureacracy takes place. The empire itself nowadays is populated by all manners of species, but its main original peoples include the blue-scaled dragonborn and the Sevs, the traditional servants of the blue dragons. After the Great Expansion under Nukal the kingdom has come to encompass large amounts of Humans ( Iem, Noltian, Reidish, Volcani, Donplarish, Wangarians, Ella), Shadow Servants,Tengu, Hobbits, Dwarves, Hekas, Grevi, Elves, and Nagafolk (Naga, sirens, merfolk). It is now the undisputed largest kingdom in Erdland, stretching from Crowbar at the foot of the Andralisk Mountain Range in the North, to the Volcani region at the Border Mountains, to the Dutches province at the Southern tip of Erdland, and Far Ventar at the Southwestern edge of the continent.
