Berini Empire

Treatment
the emperor was seen as a king, he was seen as his permanent replacement. This meant that you didn't bow to him but you stood up and then got down to one knee and put your hands on the ground. You had to do so when he entered the room, when he addressed you or when you spoke to him. Berinus adopted this title when he founded the title so as to seem more humble and not portray himself as king, because he wouldn't have to do as much to establish legitimacy. The term "Emperor" didn't exist among the Berini people until Berinus.

Attire
The Berini emperor didn't wear a crown until the time of Luwi II. He was forbidden from doing so because he wasn't king so he wore a very fancy hat. The emperor's cloak was made of purple silk with a gold trim and with silver patterns on the outside while the inside is coovered in many soft colorful feathers. As an over-vest he wore a crocodile skin vest which boldly shows the scutes on the front. The long tunic which reaches about 10 below the knee is also made of silk, but it is blue with red patterns going through it. The hat is made of the skin of a false-bird-dragon and has an amythyst on the forehead as well as a silver trim around the edges. Later, the Berini emperor wore an elaborate crown made of gold and silver and gems. The shoes are made of fine leather with replaceable soles.

Conquering policy
The Berini were more keen on having a large sustainable and thriving empire. They knew that they had to do so and keep their people happy so their empire will stay intact and not fall apart. Because of that, they put a lot of effort into keeping the inhabitants happy and keeping the infrastructure in pristine condition. When it came to conquering they did their best to assimilate the new population and to avoiding to destroy acountry when they conquered it. This however, didn't mean that they were soft, quite the contrary, when they went campaigning they used overwhelming force.
