Colours of the Empire
February 2007·pp. 44–57
THE SHORT VERSION
The Empire’s uniforms and banners reveal a federation of proud provinces and self-governing cities rather than a culturally uniform nation. Provincial histories, local gods and remembered victories explain colours and symbols that might otherwise seem decorative. The guide follows these meanings from state troops and knightly orders into shrines and buildings, showing how a collection can communicate its regional loyalties through heraldry.
