A digitally native teenager or young adult (typically 16-23) whose online persona is built on performative irony, detached humor, and carefully curated "chaotic" behavior.

As the empire grows it runs out of capital to continue expanding.
The empire then allows racial integration in order to free trapped capital within the empire.
