The '''Centauri Republic''' is the ruling governmental structure of the [[Centauri]] race and a major galactic power.

==Government==
The Centauri Republic is a major galactic power and noted for being the first alien government with which [[Earth]] had open contact. The Republic is based on [[Centauri Prime]] but spans a number of other colonies and worlds. Despite its "Republic" moniker, the Centauri Republic is a nominal constitutional monarchy headed by an imperial family (the Technomage series notes that "Centauri Republic" was, from the start, a euphemism for "Centauri Empire"<ref>[[The Passing of the Techno-Mages]]: [[Summoning Light]]</ref>). It is ruled by an emperor, or, in the event of an interregnum, a [[regent]]. The emperor has enormous power in Centauri society, and all Centauri are taught to be deferential to the ruling monarch. The Centauri are not a democracy; the average citizen has little or no political power within the Republic. The Centauri Republic allows the practice of slavery, and owning slaves, even Centauri ones, is legal within the Republic.

===Royal Court===
[[File:Centauri Royal Court.png|thumb|252x252px|Cartagia's royal court demeaning G'Kar.]]
The Royal Court is an assembly of nobles directly in the emperor's employ. Many of the members of the Royal Court hold some of the highest government positions and it is often regarded as the true stepping stone towards the throne.

====Ministries====
*Ministry of War
*Ministry of Defense
*Ministry of Intelligence
*Ministry of Transportation
*Ministry of Security<ref name="ITF">[[Into the Fire]]</ref>

===Centaurum===
The only real check on the monarch's power, the Centaurum is a legislative assembly made up of the leaders of the major noble houses. Members of the Centaurum carry the title of Legator, which is roughly the equivalent of an Earth Senator, and it is possible the titles are synonymous. Nobles who manipulate the Centaurum successfully are able to wield great power. The Centaurum can vote to overturn a decree of the monarch, although this would appear to be a rare practice, and requires three quarters of the members. An exception to the power of the Centaurum came about during the brief reign of Emperor [[Cartagia]], whose personal madness drove him to execute his enemies in the Centaurum, allowing him to rule despotically.<ref name="B5AlienGuide" />

===Populum===
The Populum is the other ruling body of the Republic and represents the official voice of the [[Centauri Noble Houses|Great and Lesser Houses]]. Roughly equivalent to the lower houses of legislative bodies on Earth, members hold the title Vocator.<ref name="B5AlienGuide" />

==Titles and Positions==
{{Citation}}
[[Image:Turhan.jpg‎|thumb|Centauri Emperor Turhan in 2259.]]
*'''[[Emperor]]''': Hereditary title. The supreme ruler of the Centauri Republic. Four men officially held the title of emperor from [[2258]] to [[2281]]: [[Turhan]], [[Cartagia]], [[Londo Mollari]], and [[Vir Cotto]]. In [[2278]], for only five minutes, Mollari named [[Luc Deradi]] Emperor, giving the child authority to give a single command.<ref>[[In the Beginning]]</ref> Emperor Turhan had done the same for Mollari when he was a young boy in the Royal Court.

*'''[[Regent]]''': Old title of authority used in place of an Emperor when there is no clear line of succession or heir apparent.<ref name=":0">[[Epiphanies]]</ref> Minister [[Milo Virini]] was elected to the position by the Royal Court after the death of Emperor [[Cartagia]] in [[2261]],<ref name=":0" /> and held the title until his death in [[2262]], after which [[Londo Mollari]] was made emperor.<ref name=":1" />

*'''Empress''': A ceremonial title for the wife of the Emperor. Like all titles held by Centauri women, it holds no official or political authority within the government. Nonetheless, it entitles the holder to a great deal of privilege and money. It is unknown if the title of "Empress" applies to all wives of the Emperor or just a single, chosen individual.<ref>[[The Long Night of Centauri Prime|''The Long Night of Centauri Prime'']] - (p.249 & 252)</ref> [[Morella]] - [[Turhan]]'s third wife - was referred to as "Lady" after his death, though it is unknown if she was called Empress beforehand.<ref name="return" /> Londo Mollari's wife [[Timov]] was granted this title when Mollari became Emperor.<ref>[[The Long Night of Centauri Prime|''The Long Night of Centauri Prime'']]</ref>

*'''Princess''': Title bestowed on a daughter of the Emperor. In [[21st_Century#2029|2029]] a young princess ordered that a Guard was to stand over and protect the spot where she had noticed the first flower of spring poking up through the snow in the Royal Gardens. The Princess soon forgot about it, and since the order was never countermanded a guard was assigned to that post every day for 200 years.<ref>[[A Tragedy of Telepaths]]</ref>

[[Image:Dius_Vintari.jpg|thumb|Prince Regent Dius Vintari in 2271]]
* '''Prince Regent''': Unlike a Regent, the title of Prince Regent appears to be used in a more ceremonial capacity, it is seemingly given to a Prince of the Royal Bloodline who is highest in the line of succession; such as the Prince Regent [[Dius Vintari]].<ref>[[Babylon 5: The Lost Tales]]</ref>

*'''Prime Minister''': First in line of authority to the Emperor. The Prime Minister is seen sitting on the royal throne while the Emperor is not in residence. During the reign of Emperor [[Turhan]], [[Malachi]] served as Prime Minister until his assassination in [[2259]], shortly after Turhan's death by natural causes.<ref name="The Coming of Shadows">[[The Coming of Shadows]]</ref> It is unknown who held the position during the reign of [[Cartagia]] - though Lord [[Antono Refa]] often discharged the authority of the office - and it may have remained vacant, officially. The position was later filled by [[Londo Mollari]] in [[2261]] until he was crowned Emperor in [[2262]].<ref>[[The Long Night]]</ref> Eventually, he named [[Vir Cotto]] his new prime minister, partly under the orders of the [[Drakh]] to keep the troublemaker close, but also to give him the opportunity to instigate the rebellion to overthrow their control over [[Centauri Prime]].

*'''[[Prophetess Supreme]]''': Title bestowed by the [[Emperor]] himself to a chosen Prophetess who traditionally resides in [[Tuwain]]. The title is a great honor and comes with a great deal of money and privilege. The tradition dates back to Emperor [[Morell]] whose life was saved by a Prophetess of Tuwain.<ref name="SoHS">[[Shadow of His Thoughts]]</ref>

*'''Minister''': Official appointed to the [[Royal Court]] - often by the Emperor himself - to run a particular aspect of daily business, acting as the executive officer of one of the governmental ministries. Notable Centauri Ministers have included Minister of Defense [[Cholini]], Minister of Protocol [[Milo Virini]], and [[Durano]] of the Ministry of Intelligence. Ministers are treated with a level of respect and deference second only to the emperor himself.

*'''Legator''' / '''Senator''' (translation): A member of the [[Centaurum]], the higher legislative house of the government.<ref name="B5AlienGuide" />. A legator is roughly the equivalent to an Earth [[Senator]]; the terms appear to be synonymous and interchangeable.<ref>[[The Quality of Mercy]]</ref>

*'''Vocator''': A member of the [[Populum]], the lower legislative house of the government.<ref name="B5AlienGuide">[[Babylon_5_Scripts#Other_Voices|Babylon 5 Scripts - Other Voices: Vol 3]] (Babylon 5 Alien Guide)</ref> Vocators are elected / appointed officials that represent the Centauri who do not belong to the noble houses.

*'''Lord''': Hereditary title, usually the head of a [[Noble House]] and a member of the [[Centaurum]]. Lord [[Antono Refa]] and Lord [[Kiro]] were both heads of noble houses, both claiming proximity and right to the throne: Kiro by being descended from old royalty, Refa by his machinations to rise to the throne.

*'''Lady''': Technically the female equivalent of a Lord, though the title itself holds no actual power so much as a degree of respect and privilege the title holder is afforded. The title is often no more than a sign of nobility, such as Lady [[Ladira]] and Lady [[Morella]].<ref name="Signs and Portents">[[Signs and Portents]]</ref><ref name="return">[[Point of No Return]]</ref>

*'''Grand Fleet Admiral''': Highest ranking fleet officer and a direct advisor to the Emperor. Grand Fleet Admiral [[Dromo]] held the position in [[2262]].<ref name="OG2B5">[[The Official Guide to Babylon 5 (CD ROM)]]</ref>

*'''Chancellor''': Position that oversaw government a program. There was at least one Chancellor of Development, in [[2262]]. <ref>[[The Long Night of Centauri Prime]] - (p.79)</ref>

*'''Guardsman Elite''': Highest ranking Imperial Guardsman and a direct advisor to the Emperor. Guardsman Elite [[Tavastani]] held the position in [[2262]].<ref name="OG2B5" />

== Technology ==
[[image:Centauri Assassination device.png|thumb|A Centauri made [[Centauri Assassination device|assassination device]].]]
The majority of Centauri innovation came from the Republic's golden age and as such more recent developments have tended towards refinement of already existing discoveries. Despite this, Centauri technology is very advanced in comparison most of the other [[Younger Races]], the majority of which - save the Minbari - pale in comparison. Centauri tech may have a somewhat gaudy aestheticism, bordering on the impractical that some may interpret as weak or useless but it belies its very real and formidable capabilities. Like the [[Minbari]], the Centauri have mastered artificial gravity and their warships are equipped with gravimetric engines.<ref name="OG2B5" />

== Military ==
At the dawn of the [[Third Age]], the Centauri fleet was among the most powerful in the known galaxy, second only to the Minbari, both in number and capabilities. Centauri armaments are especially formidable; employing [[mine]] launchers, missiles and high energy weapons that fire almost like projectiles—exploding, rather than slicing or disrupting their targets—there was very little that they could not handle.<ref>[[And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder]]</ref><ref>[[Movements of Fire and Shadow]]</ref><ref>[[In the Beginning]]</ref> The [[Sentri class fighter]]s, while designed to operate in both open space and planetary atmospheres, were surprisingly agile. While the [[Primus class battlecruiser]]s are older than [[Vorchan class medium warship]]s, they are very reliable and were more than capable of going toe-to-toe with almost any other single warship built by the younger races.

From [[2259]] through to the end of [[2262]], the Centauri military saw a great expansion not seen for almost a century as the Republic became embroiled in a series of conflicts, starting with the [[Narn-Centauri War]], the subsequent [[Centauri Wars of Aggression|Wars of Aggression]], providing support for [[John Sheridan]]'s forces in the [[Earth Alliance Civil War]] and the later [[Centauri War]] that culminated in the unsanctioned [[Assault on Centauri Prime]] by [[Drazi]] and [[Narn]] forces.<ref name="The Coming of Shadows" /><ref>[[The Fall of Night]]</ref><ref>[[Between the Darkness and the Light]]</ref><ref name=":1">[[The Fall of Centauri Prime]]</ref> Even after that last defeat, the Centauri may have retreated but the Republic's war machine was by no means destroyed or demobilized. Its size and power would remain a source for concern for the [[Interstellar Alliance]] for the next several decades, most especially those governments that shared a border with the Centauri Republic.<ref name="OG2B5" />

==  Colonies ==
[[image:Narn Invade Ragesh 3.jpg|thumb|Ragesh III under [[Invasion of Ragesh III|attack]], [[2258]].]]
Only a minority of the over forty billion Centauri<ref>[[Day of the Dead]]</ref> live on the homeworld<ref name="ITF" />. As the Republic fell into decline, its chief industry switched from conquest and discovery to tourism. Taking advantage of their long recorded history and the fact that unlike the Minbari, they're not shy about sharing it with other races and allowing others to see the many wonders of their Republic. The Republic's two oldest colonies; [[Centauri Beta I]] and [[Immolan V]] represent the main centers of tourism that have been opened to visitation by the other races.
 
The Republic maintains a number of agricultural and manufacturing colonies such as the farming colony at [[Ragesh III]] and the industrial colony on [[Tolonius VII]]. Since the end of the [[First Centauri Occupation of Narn]], the Republic has maintained a presence on the border of the [[Narn Regime]].  Centauri holdings along the border have been used to monitor the Narn, and include the outpost at [[Quadrant 27]] and the colony on [[Quadrant 1]].<ref name="OG2B5" />

Just beyond the Republic's frontier was a number of independent outlying colonies and border worlds settled by Centauri hoping to start new lives for themselves. In the mid-to-late [[2260]]s, the [[Prime Candidates]] took control of more than half a dozen such worlds, including [[Morbis]] and [[Nefua]], using them as secret training facilities and munitions plants as part of [[Minister]] [[Durla]]'s covert military build-up.<ref>[[Armies of Light and Dark]] - (p.206)</ref> In January [[2271]], Morbis and Nefua were the first targets to be bombed by the [[Legions of Fire|Centauri resistance movement]] under the direction of Ambassador [[Vir Cotto|Cotto]].<ref>[[Armies of Light and Dark]] - (p.243)</ref>

==History==
===The Elder Days===
While Centauri civilization dates back many centuries before the [[Third Age]], the first Centauri Empire was founded in 262 under the first Emperor [[Tuscano]]. He commissioned the building of the very first Royal Palace and on its completion, some water from the nearby river was sealed in an ornate urn and it became the tradition to give it to the heir to the throne when he or she came of age <ref>[[Objects at Rest]] - The river flowed past the first palace "2000 years ago"</ref>. Tuscano also commissioned the Palace Guard, incorporating his seal into the buttons of their uniforms <ref>[[The Ragged Edge]]- the palace guards were commissioned 2000 years ago</ref>. The most defining period was first contact with the [[Xon]]. They were a race of sentient beings that had evolved and developed a civilization of their own in parallel to the Centauri on the continent of [[Xonos]].<ref>[[Armies of Light and Dark]] - (p.178)</ref> Isolated from one another by [[Centauri Prime]]'s vast oceans, the two races remained unaware of one-another until one or both of them developed the technology to cross the oceans. The result of two such civilizations meeting was a disaster, akin to an alien first contact and both sides recognizing the other as a supreme threat, sought to totally wipe the other from their homeworld.<ref>[http://www.jmsnews.com/msg.aspx?id=1-9408 JMS post on GENIE - 2/28/1994 7:08:00 AM]</ref>

The conflict was long and bloody with both sides incurring staggering losses. To cope, the Centauri adopted a tradition, a [[Centauri Thanksgiving Ceremony|Celebration of Life]] where each year they would count how many of their own people had survived and celebrate their good fortune. The tradition survived well into the Third Age, by which time it had become an elaborate feast where the participants would binge and purge until finally passing out.<ref>[[The Parliament of Dreams]]</ref> By [[20th_Century_and_earlier#1258|1258]] the Xon had finally been exterminated.

According to Centauri tradition, as recorded in the "old books", Tuscano and the other Emperors of the Elder Days were proclaimed deities by the [[First Ones|ancient gods]] and in exchange for loyalty, they were said to become immortal.<ref>[[The Hour of the Wolf]]</ref> Even two thousand years later, elaborate and ornate temples built in their names adjoined the Emperor's Palace drew millions of pilgrims and tourists each year with faithful Centauri still offering up prayers to the first Emperors.<ref name="OG2B5" />

===The Great Old Days of the Republic===
With the final extermination of the Xon in 1258, led by General Kiro of House Kiro, a new [[Centauri Republic]] was founded, governed by the Centaurum. The first Emperor (and former General), Kiro of the Republic consulted with three techno-mages<ref>[[The Geometry of Shadows]]</ref>, Frazur and his two associates<ref>[[Summoning Light]]</ref>before taking the throne. Emperor Kiro commissions an elaborate jewel called ’The Eye’ based on the sigil of House Kiro  that becomes the symbol of power for the Emperor <ref name="Signs and Portents" />. To cement the foundation of the Republic, arranged marriages became the norm <ref>[[The War Prayer]]- there have been arranged marriages for 1000 years</ref>.  During this time, an invasion by the [[Shoggren]]<ref>[[Day of the Dead]]</ref> is repelled. What followed was a period of great expansion and much celebrated glory. By the [[20th_Century_and_earlier#Circa 13th Century|13th Century]] the had stumbled across an ancient [[jumpgate]] at the outer edges of their system while exploring in their first early spaceships. Like others before them, once they unlocked the complex codes required to activate the jump gates, they set out to explore [[hyperspace]] and reverse engineer the technology for themselves.<ref>[[To Dream in the City of Sorrows]]</ref> With the rest of the galaxy now open to them the Republic began expanding in all directions, conquering whole [[Beta System|systems]] and enslaving alien [[Golian|races]].<ref name="B5AlienGuide" /><ref name="Signs and Portents" /><ref>[http://www.jmsnews.com/msg.aspx?id=1-13855 JMS post on rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5.moderated - 2/12/1994 1:42:00 PM]</ref><ref name="gather">[[The Gathering]]</ref> Still, though they controlled entire quadrants of space and little stood in their way, even the Centauri knew better than to try and oppose the powerful [[Minbari Federation]].<ref name="ITB">[[In the Beginning]] - Even at the height of the Republic, they never opposed the Minbari</ref><ref>[[To Dream in the City of Sorrows]] The Minbari were new to space travel during the [[First Shadow War]]</ref>

===The Conquest of Narn===
In [[2109]], the Republic invaded the [[Narn]] [[Narn (planet)|Homeworld]]. An agrarian world populated by what the Centauri considered to be a race of backward, uncultured primitives. Initially the [[Narn]]s welcomed them with open arms and the Centauri quickly took advantage of their technological superiority and enslaved the population. Using them as forced labor as they began strip mining the planet's resources, devastating its ecology and slowly turned the once green and verdant world into a dry, red, dust ravaged planet. The Narn fought back and by attrition gradually made the occupation more and more difficult for the Centauri to maintain.<ref name="ANFaW">[[And Now For a Word]] - G'kar described the history of the occupation which began 150 years ago</ref><ref>[[Acts of Sacrifice]]</ref>

===Contact with Humans===
On Wednesday, April 7, [[2156]], a Centauri vessel entering a [[Sol System|system]] in a fairly uninteresting part of the galaxy that the Republic had never bothered much with before came across a [[Earth|planet]] populated by a primitive, pre-interstellar civilization called the [[Earth Alliance]]. Though they had begun to colonize nearby moons and planets, their system lacked a [[jumpgate]] and the Republic saw an opportunity for quick profit. Their civilization now past its prime, the increasingly decadent Centauri became fascinated with the Humans and their abundance of art, trinkets and eccentricity and opened up trade with this new world, which included access to hyperspace. Initially the Republic leased time on their jumpgates before negotiating the sale of the technology for the Humans to build their own gates.<ref name="ITB" /><ref>[[The Long Dark]]</ref><ref>[[Thirdspace]]</ref>

The thinking at the time was that the primitive humans would quickly annihilate themselves once they had purchased the Centauri's advanced technology. They believed that the humans would move too quickly for their own good and anticipated internal struggles and wars within the Earth Alliance that was at the time already on the verge of collapse. The plan was for [[Centauri Prime]] to secretly fund both sides and allow them to more or less obliterate each other, after which the Republic would step in and pick the pieces and incorporate Earth to their territory with little risk to Centauri interests and nothing but profit. Things, however, did not go according to plan as the Alliance held together, mostly out of fear of a galaxy full of heretofore unknown and powerful alien threats.<ref>[[Dark Genesis - The Birth of the Psi Corps]]</ref><ref name="OotD">[[Out of the Darkness]]</ref>

Around this time, the Centauri even attempted to convince humans that they were a lost colony, thus explaining the superficial similarities between the two species.<ref name="MotFL">[[Midnight on the Firing Line]]</ref> They even went to far as to pick up on an Earth practice - prevalent at the time - of naming their secondary colonies '[[Earth Alliance Colonies#Beta Colonies|Beta]]', so when they translated the names of their own planets and star systems into English, the Republic also used Greek lettering and since to them there could only be one "Alpha" world (Centauri Prime) many of their colonies ended up being called 'Beta', such as [[Centauri Beta I]]. According to the Centauri claim Earth was "Beta 9"; however when Human scientists finally gained access to Centauri DNA and discovered the two races were not even remotely related, the Centauri then pleaded that their previous assertion stemmed from a clerical error and Earth was in fact "Beta 12", dropping any further attempts to claim kinship.<ref name="OG2B5" /><ref name="DRBA">[[Deadly Relations - Bester Ascendant]] (Page: 213/214)</ref>

===Decline of an Empire===
In [[2228]], facing certain defeat against the [[Narn Resistance]], members of the Centaurum made a secret deal with the [[Dilgar]]. In return for weapons, they handed them the Narn colony world Hylak VII, which would become their staging world for the Invasion of the [[League of Non-Aligned Worlds|Non-Aligned sectors]] in [[2230]]. Later claims of Narn collusion with the Dilgar were dismissed as Centauri propaganda<ref>[[Deathwalker]]</ref>. The Earth Alliance came into the [[Dilgar War]] in support of the League worlds. With their help, the Dilgar were driven back and ultimately wiped out when [[Omelos]]'s star went [[supernova]].<ref>[[Deathwalker (episode)]]</ref>

In [[2231]], after a long period of occupation and oppression, the [[Narn Resistance]] finally pushed the Centauri off their now ravaged homeworld. What was once a vast empire was now just a dozen worlds, filled with monuments to glories long since past and before long they would find themselves in direct competition with the new [[Narn Regime]].<ref name="gather" /><ref name="ANFaW" /><ref name="MotFL" />

The Humans did however eventually trip up and get pulled into a war as the Centauri had predicted, but it was [[Earth-Minbari War|the wrong war]].<ref name="OotD" /> Their new-found power and confidence lead them to arrogance and stupidity when they decided, against Centauri advice, to send an explorer division into [[Minbari]] [[Minbari Federation|space]] to assess what if any threat this ancient and mysterious race might pose. The resulting [[Earth-Minbari First Contact|first contact]] was an absolute catastrophe and tragedy of galactic proportions. The Earth ships encountered a small fleet of Minbari [[Sharlin class warcruiser|ships]], and the Human [[Michael Jankowski|Captain]] misinterpreted the [[Warrior Caste]] sign of respect of approaching with gun ports open as a prelude to attack, and opened fire on the [[Valen'Tha|lead ship]]. In the ensuing firefight, [[Chosen One]] [[Dukhat]] of the [[Grey Council]] who was killed aboard the damaged vessel, and the Minbari responded with an uncontrollable fury, sparking a holy war that could only end in the complete annihilation of Earth itself.<ref name="ITB" />

The [[Earthgov|Earth government]] asked the Republic for aid and strategic support, but were categorically told no. The Republic had no intention of risking the possibility that they might share the Minbari's vengeance by assisting their new enemies, forcing the Alliance to instead turn to the [[Narn Regime]] for weapons supplies - much of which was in fact captured or replicated Centauri technology.<ref name="ITB" />

As the war progressed the Republic became concerned that the Narns were using the war to establish closer ties with the Humans, and so issued orders to disrupt or prevent their efforts. [[Londo Mollari]], the liaison to the Centauri delegation on Earth, discovered through his network of spies on Narn and [[Minbar]] that a secret Narn mission carrying Humans was bound for the [[Epsilon System]] and so ordered an [[Attack on the Epsilon System|attack]], assuming it was an arms shipment.<ref name="ITB" /> It wasn't until afterwards that he realised it was a secret meeting between Earth and Minbar and that the Centauri had just annihilated any hope of a negotiated peace.<ref>[[In the Beginning (Novelization)]]</ref> The war did eventually end, but not as any would have predicted, with the Minbari's mysterious surrender at the [[Battle of the Line]] while on the very edge of a final victory.<ref name="gather" /><ref name="ITB" />
