The Western Imperium described a geopolitical construct in Sarpedon following the Second Great War that replaced Caphiria with Aciria as the nation which held lawful imperium over the continent and former imperial domains within it. The "Western Imperium" more specifically descibes Aciria's claim to imperium over the continent and the nations which recognized this claim, Pelaxia, Cartadania, and Volonia. Holding imperium entitled Aciria to claim a degree of hegemony over Sarpedon while claiming rights to protect the continent. It entitled Aciria to accept Continental Obligations from the states that recognized its status, and essentially presented Aciria as Caphiria's replacement.
Aciria's ability to claim imperium came with the defeat of Caphiria during the Second Great War, a defeat that the Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association (LOTA) carefully crafted within the media as a primarily Acirian effort despite the plurality of resources coming from Levantia. Having defeated Caphiria allowed Aciria to credibly claim its mantle of imperium, a mantle recognized by the other LOTA-aligned nations on Sarpedon, Pelaxia, Cartadania, and Volonia. Aciria accepted its first Continental Obligation from Volonia on March 18, 1944, a date which is generally accepted as the beginning of the Western Imperium. Its status continued until 1970, when both Pelaxia and Volonia switched their recognition back to Caphiria and established the Continental Diplomatic Arrangement Organization, departing LOTA. The two defections, caused primarily by the restoration of Caphiria's strength as well as negative economic impacts from the Occidental Cold War, lead the concept of the Western Imperium to enter into relative obscurity. Aciria continued to accept Obligations from Cartadania until 1973, after which point it switched its recognition back to Caphiria and left LOTA. Although it no longer received recognition from its neighbors, the claim to imperium continued until the Assumption Accords, in which it formally recognized Caphiria's imperium over the continent, though its future Continental Obligations were modified to reflect a higher status, with the Emperor of Aciria being given the status of junior Imperator.
