Before the Batonian Empire existed, there was a dictatorial government that abused its people, at that time the Gradus 9z planet was obscure and without happiness, until a great revolution occurred, it lasted 4 years of war until finally the government fell and the new Baton Empire emerged from his ashes, thus creating the society that everyone knows.
The Batonian Empire was founded in 33 years P.R. (post-revolution)
by the grand and acclaimed Empress Brenda, the woman who led the revolution against the old empire and has so far led it with power and glory.

the Diome Empire was a great oppressive government that ruled the planet Gradus 9z before the crisis and the great revolution, giving rise to the great Baton Empire.
Diome was led by the hated dictator Thomas Mercurius, who was executed shortly before Empress Brenda and Charles Bauer took over the empire.

The Beetle Guardians were a kind of creature created in the labs by Klaus Scherer (Imperial Scientist) mixing human DNA with beetle DNA.
