東印度公司 East India Company

The Singapore-headquartered East India Company (EIC) administers the Imperium’s vast holdings across Arabia, Persia, the subcontinent, and all of Southeast Asia (save the Philippines and Borneo). Its operations resemble those of a sovereign wealth fund — if the fund in question possessed land, refineries, railroads, political lobbyists, and more territory than most countries.

Its modern corporate structure masks a colonial pedigree, and though its governance no longer includes colonial administration, EIC’s influence is woven into the policy frameworks of over a dozen local governments. From the oil fields of Rajasthan to the ports of Da Nang, nothing moves without its nod.

Ownership is split three ways: 35% to the Crown, 30% to the Hokyesons, and 25% to the Choos, whose patriarch, Tan Sri Choo Beng Hooi, is said to command more votes in ASEAN than several heads of state combined.

H·J·何佳臣家族銀行 H.J. Hokyeson & Sons.

No corporation exemplifies quiet omnipotence more than H. J. Hokyeson & Sons. Founded in 1782 as a merchant bank in Mayfair, it is now the most powerful privately held investment bank on the planet. Unlike Goldman Stanley, its louder, publicly listed younger cousin, Hokyeson’s name is not emblazoned on downtown towers or stadiums. Its influence is felt in the corridors of sovereign wealth funds, debt restructuring programs, and discreet emergency phone calls from finance ministers.

The bank controls the lion’s share of the international bond market, acting as underwriter, purchaser, and arbiter of debt instruments for over 60 governments. Analysts have described it as the fusion of Merrill Lynch, Goldman Stanley, and the IMF, with a shadow of the Crown behind every transaction. It played a decisive role in stabilising the fiscal systems of Persia (2003), Sudan (2017), and even the Imperium during the 2008 Financial Crisis.

And yet, it has no shareholders. It is 100% owned by the British branch of the Hokyeson family, whose patriarch, the Duke of Kensington is rumored to have veto power over IMF disbursements, and whose sons chair half a dozen sovereign debt councils.

“Goldman Stanley might be loud,” a rival banker quipped, “but Hokyeson’s the one that actually moves the chessboard.”

洛森企業 Roxxon Enterprises

Founded as Standard Oil by the Rockefellers, Roxxon International is now a multi-sector juggernaut headquartered in Palampore, Atlantis. Controlling oil extraction across Atlantis, the Middle East, and West Asia, Roxxon effectively setting global energy prices.

But Roxxon has evolved far beyond energy. With acquisitions of Boeing and General Electric, and controlling stakes in major AI, semiconductor, and satellite firms, it now embodies the convergence of Silicon Valley, the Pentagon, and Wall Street. Analysts compare Roxxon to a fusion of Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Meta, Tesla, ExxonMobil, and Saudi Aramco. Its joint control is split between the Rockefellers and the East India Company.

范德庇集團 The Vanderbilt Organisation

If Roxxon powers the empire, the Vanderbilt Organisation moves it. Based also in Palampore, this logistics behemoth monopolises public transport and courier infrastructure across Atlantis, Africa, India, and the British Isles. Every parcel delivered, every commuter train scheduled, every freight route opened — all run through Vanderbilt algorithms. Known for brutal efficiency and militarized logistics, the Organisation’s influence is most visible yet least questioned.

朱氏集團 Choo Group of Companies

The Choo Group, based in Penang, is Southeast Asia’s largest conglomerate and arguably the only rival to CK Jardine Matheson in scale. With a combined market cap exceeding $5 trillion, its holdings range from international shipping (International Shipping Enterprises), agribusiness (Weimar International), land and property (South Sea Land), oil (Petroliam Nasional), autos (Raja Motors), rubber (Malaya Siam Rubber Corp), and banking (Bank of Asia) to media (Straits Times Holdings), textiles (East India Textiles), ports (Melacca Ports), and luxury resorts (Karma-Taj Group).

Though officially apolitical, its influence in Southeast Asian governance is total. The Choo family’s scions occupy cabinet positions in Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam — often concurrently.

長江怡和集團 CK Jardine Matheson

Controlled by Li Ka-Shing and the Hokyesons’ Hong Kong branch, CK Jardine Matheson is the Imperium’s premier holding group in Asia. With dozens of subsidiaries in real estate (CK Land), utilities (CK Jardine Infrastructure), telecoms (Hutchison Cable & Wireless), airlines (Cathay Pacific), finance (Jardine Pacific & Jardine Fleming), shipping (China Navigation Company), and retail (DFI Watsons), it is more a continent-spanning platform economy than a single company.

CK Jardines controls key brands such as Cathay Pacific, DFI Retail Group (Watsons, Wellcome), MTR Corporation, Hongkong Land, Swire Properties, and Hutchison Cable & Wireless. It even owns 51% of all McDonald’s, KFC, Starbucks, and IKEA outlets in the Asia-Pacific region. The company is so embedded in daily life that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange once quipped, “We don’t list CK Jardine. CK Jardine lists us.”
