The '''Galvanti Empire''' is a large preindustrial nation on the planet [[Erdria]]. While it is considered the most technologically advanced nation on that world, it is still at medieval levels of technology as Erdria's highly irregular seasonal cycle stalled recovery and development since the [[Blackout]]. Because of this, the [[Federation of Stellar Systems]] has deemed the Galvanti Empire the only location where offworlders are permitted contact so as to not to upset the natural development of the planet's society.

Because the rapid introduction of modern technology is banned, most trade with the Galvanti Empire from outworlders tend to be in the form of cultural customs and works of fiction. There is a strong tourism industry as many offworlders often get the chance to experience a glimpse into humanity's past. Citizens of the Galvanti Empire are also offered the opportunity to emigrate to other Federation worlds if they so choose if they wish to experience a modern lifestyle.
==Overview==
Despite being at preindustrial levels, the Galvanti Empire has still developed some impressive capabilities on its own. They have access to aqueducts to distribute water throughout major cities, telescopes and basic greenhouses where certain kinds of edible mushrooms are grown in caves with more consistent temperature year round. They are also in the early stages of discovering steam technology.

The Galvanti Empire has made attempts to study leftover [[Valerian Empire]] technology with mixed results. They have a societal class known as Tech Sages who interpret the Valerian technology through [[technokinesis]]. They have not discovered the biological processes that make technokinesis possible in humans although they do understand that it is genetically inherited, meaning that most Tech Sages tend to be nobility or royalty. They were able to successfully activate an ancient Valerian beacon on their own which was what led the Federation into discovering them. However, aside from setting up [[vrNet]] servers to allow offworld visitors, the Federation has withheld themselves from introducing any more technology as to not upset the balance. This is largely due to an incident where pirates had sold smuggled, illegal offworld weapons to a rival kingdom that they accidentally wiped themselves out with.
