The Vigorian 
Founder Emperor

Our founder is; ​

 

His Imperial Majesty. The Vigorian Emperor.​

 

Nicholas is the founding Emperor and Prime Sovereign of the Vigorian Empire. He founded the Empire in 2014, after a long process of awakening, which you can read about if you are interested in the history of the Empire.

​

Nicholas has the power of an absolute monarch over the Empire. E.G. everything he owns. The Empire and being the Emperors is purely symbolic in nature. Citizens are here of their own free will. Also known as the Prime (or First) Sovereign, or Lord Vigorian of De'Oceano (another exciting project). Every other organisation, nation or citizen is also a Sovereign. Sovereign means you hold all power and authority over yourself, not others. You volunteer to abide by a contract to the applicable rules, regulations and laws of the empire that may apply to you and your circumstances. Citizens are free to come and go as they please, this is not a cult and we do not seek to control anyone. Your allegiance is voluntary and much appreciated by all Sovereign Citizens. 

 

Other Sovereigns pledge their allegiance to the Empire, its officers such as Nicholas and each other. (Loyalty and Honour through Natural Volunary Reciprocity). ​

​

Every Sovereign serves the Emperor and each other as the Emperor and each other serve, in spirit. The symbol of loyalty, unity and love that binds us. 

 

​Purity without pretence, loyalty & unity without condition, and love without limit.

In a world where men wage wars for power, a creature ruled only by love is the purest sovereign of all. The Emperor's beloved friend​, Jake the Pug, also a Sovereign in his own right, reminds us that leadership isn’t about domination, it’s about guardianship.

That an Emperor need not sit on a throne to command respect; sometimes he simply leads by example, by heart, and others naturally follow, being led by their hearts. The Vigorian Empire must always remain rooted in love, loyalty, unity, compassion, and unwavering devotion, the very virtues of Jake. 

​

The Emperor carries Jake's tradition to the best of his ability, holding power but wielding it for the benefit of other Sovereign Citizens. 

​

Sadly, Sovereign Jake was taken from us on February 17th 2025. He is currently in Cryostasis, maintained by the Vigorian Empire. ​
