The Turtonian Empire was a period of time within Turtonian and Falcarian history generally considered to have began around April 2010, when the monarchy dissolved their restrictions. The Empire de jure began on 23 May 2011 with the first Turtonian colonial claim. The Turtonian Empire was lead by The Emperor Todd I and, following his abdication, Edward.

The nation intentionally lacked a written constitution and had all legislature written personally by the monarch. Legislature passed was rarely enforced, as no mechanism for enforcement existed. The double person rule allowed for the monarch to retain almost all power. The Empire was dissolved with the passing of the Turtonian Constitution, relinquishing colonial holdings and restricting monarchical power, despite this the office of Emperor was not officially removed until 2013.
