What is the Vaktovian Empire?
The Vaktovian Empire is an elite military group that uses terrorist attacks (called "cheating tactics" in the country) to win. The Vaktovian Empire is known for being a very good military and beating its competitors. Their leader is Emperor Vaktus who is known for cheating in the early days of Robloxia, his age is unknown. Emperors are called "democratic presidents" in the country, despite the fact they are not elected democratically.
It was formerly based on Reapers of the "Mass Effect 3" universe. However, during June of 2015, the emperor announced t that they would revert back to their old intentions. Becoming a citizen in this country is quite prestigious, as it requires Robloxians to go through cadet and corps training before being accepted into the official empire. There are different sections of the empire, but there are two sections- the Vaktovian Army Corps (formerly known as the Vaktovian Ascension Core) and the main division called The Vaktovian Empire. The Vaktovian Empire has been heavily criticized for the bankruptcy of multiple corporations and controversial wins.
The history of the current emperor goes back into 2008. During the Vaktovian Coalition and Vaktovian Astrofleet, the emperor was then known as "XDHAPPYXD". It was not until much later that he became the current emperor of the Vaktovian Empire.
Bases
Swampy Moon Outpost
The Swampy Moon Outpost is the main fortress and base of the empire. It is the most raided of all outposts, and the most active and protected.
There is a cave in Swampy Moon Outpost that is frequented by raiders. Raiders are shot if they leave the cave. There are different ways into the base, like shooting at the rocks to go up to the cliffs or just stacking up to the main fortress.
This base was destroyed and later decommissioned as Robloxians found its vulnerabilities. Vaktovians, in response to their destroyed base, constructed a new darker base. It is harder to get in as the raiders need to get past the Vaktovians to get to the obstacle course area that leads into the fort. Another, albeit risky (as raiders have died), way in is to stack up at the walls.
Kaznan
Kaznan is a jungle base that has been outfitted with the newest Vaktovian weaponry in 2015 for temporary use.
Kaznan is surrounded by a large jungle that can be very hard to navigate, as snipers excel in this base massively. Raiders first visit a low elevation area surrounded by mountains, where they are exposed if they remain idle. Unless very crafty hiding tactics are implemented, raiders will most likely be shot on sight. The Vaktovians tend to hang out high up in a pillar that is parallel to the raiders but slightly closer to the base.
Kaznan has something unique to it that is not in any other base - The Dropship. The dropship is a Vaktovian vehicle that can fire missiles and is primarily used to drop off squads of Vaktovians at key locations with extreme ease. A vulnerability discovered by Robloxians is that it can be destroyed if they hit it from the bottom several times while it is flying.
The Vaktovian Empire's unsuccessful Invasion of TNI.
The Vaktovian Empire invaded TNI, hoping to get rich from it due to multiple Robloxians hearing that the country had tons of cash in their vault. The Vaktovian Empire, in response to this, proceeded to raid the TNI's Arcon III Fort and succeeded. Their next move was to raid the border, which was under heavy protection because the TNI was aware they were here. The Vaktovian Empire proceeded to raid the border, but then were stopped by multiple Commando Ghosts. With their attack a failure, The Vaktovian Empire surrendered and left. TNI's vault still had money.
Vaktovian Empire Raid
The Vaktovian Empire chose to raid TNI:C several times, who are the main elite fighting force of TNI. The Vaktovians won the raid overall. However, some battles of the raid were lost. Lack of coordination and attendees, Commander Ghosts, and TNI resistance were the main reasons for the said losses.

Criticism
The Vaktovian Empire has been continually criticized for taking over multiple empires such as Roblox Freedom Association. When the government had citizen forums, they were criticized for some controversial "war victories" and "raid victories" by many Robloxians who are in their former enemy elite military groups. Ever since the government shutdown the citizen forums, criticism for this has waned.
Armory
StA-53
The StA-53 is the main assault weapon used by the empire. Vaktovians receive it automatically at any official training center or base. There are three modes to this assault weapon. Automatic, Shotgun, and Semi-Automatic. There are sixty bullets in one clip. It is estimated that it takes 10-20 bullets to kill a Robloxian. Automatic is when one can hold down the trigger and it will keep firing. Lastly, there is Semi-Automatic. Semi is when one cannot hold down the trigger and it will keep firing. Instead, one will need to trigger-mash to make it look like an automatic weapon. Vaktovians are advised not to use the Semi-Automatic mode for raid-time and wartime purposes.
The Vaktovian Sword
The Vaktovian sword is simply just a regular sword. The only advantage of the sword is that one might be able to sword-jump a little higher with no hats on. The regular sword and this sword deal relatively the same amount of damage. All older versions of the swords are currently in the armories of other empires due to a Robloxian finding a way to use this sword that it is not intended to do.
StA-18
This weapon is the pistol that the empire officers uses. Although it does little damage, it is mostly used to direct attention by shooting a Robloxian with it. It is also the most commonly used as it allows the Robloxian who is holding it to sprint faster.
StA-3
This weapon is the biggest weapon used in combat used by the empire. It holds a hundred bullets per clip. This weapon is a very much used weapon within the empire's military, and if used properly, can kill any Robloxian in just a few bullets.
VC-32 Sniper Rifle
This weapon is the sniper rifle of VAK. It is often used to take down one Robloxian at a time, rather than take down groups at a time. It holds 15 bullets per clip. If scoped, this weapon does more damage, should a bullet of it hit a Robloxian. The artillery speed of the weapon is 80% of that of the StA-18.
VC-45 Sniper Rifle
This weapon is the main sniper rifle in Port Maersk and is used for recon. It is often used to take down one Robloxian at a time, rather than take down groups at a time. It holds 3 bullets per clip. If scoped, this weapon does more damage, should a bullet of it hit a Robloxian. The artillery speed of the weapon is 80% of that of the StA-18.
Medigun
The Medigun was originally used by the Vaktovians, but after Robloxians stole the blueprints of this weapon, they can build and use it too. It is not a weapon of destruction, but rather it will protect Robloxians from dying, healing Robloxians to the point of healthiness in ten seconds before having to reload.
Aimlock Medi-gun
The Aimlock Medi-gun is the one that Vaktovians mainly used in combat because they don't have to aim it exactly where the person is. it takes about 12 seconds to fully heal from 1-100. One con about the Aimlock Medi-gun is that you have to wait for it to charge back up instead of reloading. This process can take 3-7 minutes to fully go from OOC to fully charged.
Fun Facts:
A country called The Nighthawk Imperium, or TNI for short, was created from The Vaktovian Empire. TNI and The Vaktovian Empire used to be allies before becoming enemies. The enemy sentiment of TNI still endures to this day.
The Vaktovian Empire once did not exist in Roblox due to a group of Robloxians in an elite military group calling Robloxia to raid the empire. The raid was successful, and for a short duration, the empire was considered to be part of Robloxia. Several high-ranking individuals, as well as the emperor fought back, resulting in the signing of an unnamed treaty. The signing of the unnamed treaty also helped publicly disclose the group of Robloxians in an elite military group who chose to call Robloxia to raid the empire.
