The Empire of Madara was a powerful Dominarian country, once ruled by the powerful dragon planeswalker Nicol Bolas.
Locations on Madara
The cultural and economic center of Madara lay between the eastern Gitte-Yatay Mountains and the western sea. In it lay two great marshes and the main streams of the Suido River. This means that blue, black, and red mana met at a single point. On this point stood the Imperial Shrine of Nicol Bolas.
Notable villages in Madara were the ports Sekana and Pelada. Off the coast of Madara lies the Edemi Islands. These islands were somewhat under the control of the empire, but they would rebel every decade or so.
History of Madara
The empire was founded by a warrior-queen who styled herself a god-empress. Because of the three mana lines that met, Nicol Bolas thought Madara would be a good place to start a foothold on Dominaria. Bolas was such an ancient planeswalker that he needed a strong base of his main colors to remain on a plane for long. The dragon took the empire, becoming a real god-emperor.
For around 400 years Bolas ruled Madara through three individuals: the imperial assassin, the imperial champion, and the high general of the kentsu. The dragon later realized this system was becoming obsolete as assassin Ramses Overdark was successfully replacing the other imperial officers with his own minions. Bolas then made a new system with only one placeholder of the emperor: imperial regent Ramses Overdark.
But not soon afterwards former champion Tetsuo Umezawa killed Overdark and exiled Bolas, destroying that system as well. After this the empire plunged into chaos, with various nobles buying parts of the kentsu as their personal armies and oppressed islands and tribes rebelling. Tetsuo set out to restore balance to the empire, but how this ended was never revealed.
Madara is currently overrun with the cat-dragon race, the nekoru. The humans of Madara exist solely as servants, clerics, and slaves.
