	There are many empires, and some have an open ~~[[Immigration_Policy\|~~immigration policy]] which allow you to join them. This is however not recommended to do as a new player, this is because many of the empires with open immigration policy may be inactive or abandoned. Unless the empire you end up joining actually have an active emperor, it can be a rather disappointing and confusing experience. It is possible to play normally while in an inactive empire, but it defeats the point.		There are many empires, and some have an open immigration policy which allow you to join them.

	A better way to find an existing empire to join, is to either ask on the [http://hazeron.com/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=23 ''recruiting'' forum] or create an [[avatar]] in a random open empire and ask other players on the ''galactic'' [[communication]] channel.

	~~====Government====~~
	~~The government option is a tricky one to explain. There are multiple [[government]] types, but for the most part they are all the same.~~

	You are able to change the government type at any time, so in the beginning it doesn't matter too much. It first becomes important if you are gonna be making an empire with friends or plan to invite other players to the empire.

	~~Here are some examples:~~
	* '''Dictatorship''' and '''Monarchy'''
	*: These are the commonly preferred government types. Mostly because they don't allow any member to do anything without you allowing it.
	* '''Anarchy'''
	*: Somewhat useful for empires where everyone are allowed to grab control to fix problems. Best used when playing with close friends you trust.
	* The rest...
	*: The remaining government types can be a little hit and miss. Read up on how they work before selecting them.

	~~See the [[Government]] page for more information.~~
