Peoples: Demon Empire

The Demon Empire serve as the primary antagonists during the course of the stories. They are based on Jindaria and conduct their evil from their homeland of Demon Isle (or Haurorah-dor-Keeissu): a small continent in the center of the largest Jindarian ocean which is surrounded by islands. While I am not going to post the full history of the Demon Empire or its goals because such info would give away more than I want, I will talk about the basics of the Demon Empire.
The Demon Empire was founded about 2000 years before book one as an effort to unify the demons so they could be a force to be reckoned with instead of a small series of weakling nations. It consists of four different demonic peoples living under one power (basically, four species of demon). The most powerful of these species are the Destroyers (Usor'An's people) and they run the empire. The empire is managed on a lower level by the destroyer houses (see: All about one of my characters: Usor'An, summation). The empire's power ultimately falls on the shoulders of the Demon King and his assistants.
In the series, the Demon Empire is invading the other Jindarian nations of Chazz, Verrelinor, and Gasarinia. They are also attempting to negatively influence the people living on the planet of Eray (where Anar is from). Their main source of opposition comes from a large albeit unstable alliance of Jindarian peoples calling themselves The Legions of Jindaria. Their influencing Eray is the main conflict within book 1.
The Demon Empire has no flag but rather the destroyer houses treat their symbols as such.
