Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is also not canon. It's not showing up here, I just don't like it. The Empire in PotC is mostly made up of former members of the British navy, volunteers, and former pirates, in order of most to least concerning their numbers. They have a fortress set up on an island that they reign from. The Empire turns a blind eye to piracy on the seas, as long as their own ships are not attacked. They want control over trade routes, and to lower the influence and power of private companies, as well as instill fear in the populace so they do not revolt. This world does not have a factory, there will be a different objective.
