The Romulan Star Empire (Romulan: Shiar ih'Saeihr Rihan) was a major galactic power, encompassing the Romulan people and their subject worlds and species. The Empire was ruled by the Romulan Senate, overseen by the Praetor. The Empire was known for its xenophobic character and policies of extreme secrecy, subterfuge, and territorial expansionism. By the late 23rd century, the Empire was counted among the great powers in its region of the Milky Way Galaxy. The intelligence arm of the Empire, the Tal Shiar, was also extremely influential throughout the state.
Cryptic Universe[]
The Hobus supernova of 2387 and the ensuing destruction of Romulus threw the Empire into a great deal of turmoil, encompassing several civil wars, territorial separation, reunification and re-constitution. A new capital was established on Rator III, where Sela eventually proclaimed herself Empress in 2408. With her disappearance the next year, the status of Rator III as capital was challanged by Romulan and Reman fugitives who strove for an eventual re-unification with the Vulcans and founded a new faction - the Romulan Republic - based on New Romulus. Remnants of the Star Empire continued to persist into 2410 and beyond, but their numbers and influence were severely diminished.
