The Empire of Novus Daemonica, (END) is a Heriditary military dictatorship formed after the signing of the Twilight Contract between the house of Fiore and the Demon king. The contract elevated the Fiore and their vassals as an infamous kingdom who turned their backs on the gods. However, in truth the End is essentially a decentralized shogunate, ruled de jure by the Fiore Family, but is de facto ruled by clan Kensei who serve the Fiore family with distinction and honor. The Shogunate itself divides the islands into provinces and special districts installing noble lords whose contracts with demons ensures that the people remain safe within their borders.
However, the symbiotic relationship of the humans and demons has allowed the Empire to contract out its military forces to fight on behalf of other Kingdoms. Though the End is an effective fighting force, those foolish enough to refuse to compensate the End for their services will be invaded ending their reign, leaving a wake of chaos and devastation, hence the End.
