Confederate Empire of Shadows

The Confederate Empire of Shadows was an alliance of most of Primordius Magna under the Makuta.

Origin
Around the year 0 BKT, Kronaxx, watched as the matoran of Metru Major and Metru Minor began to resent the Great Spirit Kentis Nui. Their economy had plunged and they had been plagued by disasters. The matoran felt let down; Kentis Nui had abandoned them. Kronaxx saw this as an opportunity to overthrow Kentis nui and lead Primordius Magna himself. Kronaxx revealed his plan to the rest of the Brotherhood of Makuta, but Proteridax, the leader, not liking the idea, attempted to kill him. After a struggle, Kronaxx killed Proteridax and declared himself the new leader of the Brotherhood of Makuta. Empousa, a makuta whom supported Kronaxx from the start, discovered that Primordius Magna was really a gigantic shell in which the great spirit inhabited. Empousa, on Kronaxx's orders, corrupted Kentis Nui with a kraata, bending him to the will of the Brotherhood of Makuta.

Formation
Kronaxx announced his new regime to the Matoran of Metru's Minor and major and they agreed to form the Confederate Empire of Shadows. After Metru Major and Metru Minor, the first and second largest cities respectively, agreed to join, almost every other island followed suite.
