The Satou Empire (formerly the Scottish Commonwealth) is a large empire spanning over one third of the planet Earth.

It serves as the main setting, and antagonistic force, of the 5ive series.
Geography[]
Areas[]
Upon being occupied by the Satou Empire, countries are stripped of their name and instead titled Annex followed by a letter from the Latin or Greek alphabets, and the populace of the areas named after the stated letter (i.e. Ireland is Annex B, and its populace known as Bs). Scotland serves as an exception to this rule, instead being called the "Homeland".
List of areas occupied by the Satou Empire:
The militaristic force behind the Satou Empire has also enacted wars on several other countries, including Mozambique, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Guatemala and Cuba, though either retreated or were forced out by opposing forces. Additionally, while still under the name of "Scottish Commonwealth", they were supported by the governments of Brazil and Argentina, though they have since banded together with several other countries to create the opposing Federación de Acción.
