A general thread for various imperial legal lore literature. (Gotta love alliteration)
This definately needs editing and input, but I think it could add a great deal to the current political situation in Elsweyr.
Desert Corps Emergency Directorate
Declared in war time by emperor Tiber Septim; 2E 896
In times of great turbulence in the empire, such as the death of an emperor with no successor, or revolution in the provinces, then heads of local agencies and branches of the Imperial Legion are encouraged to make assessments of the state of the empire and the provinces. If they determine the empire to be in peril and the central governing bodies of the empire to be compromised, then they are granted temporary autonomy by way of imperial decree. Primary goals to be secured in this time are the safety of the empire, stability of the provinces, and personal safety of agency members. In that order. May the empire stand atop the sands forever.
