The House of the Learned is a prominent and secretive scientific institution located in the Restricted Access Zone immediately outside Nivardom, within the legal jurisdiction of the Principality of Molivadia, Constancia. Founded in 1670 AN by the government of Constancia, its facilities are originally an ex-Babkhan MilZig (Military Ziggurat), which was repurposed to serve dual functions: as a center for specialist research and development activities and as a seat of higher learning. The institution enjoys the support of the ESB Group, the Humanist Vanguard, the Imperial Constancian Armed Forces, and the Trans-Euran Command, reflecting its significance in both academic and military spheres. The organization also maintains research partnerships with Javelin Industries, ESB Thermodynamics, Neridia Defense Industries, and with Mishalan Arsenal.

History

1721 Security Breach

In 1721 AN, the House of the Learned experienced a significant security breach when its systems were hacked by the Confederacy of the Dispossessed. This major leak resulted in the public disclosure of several project code names, although no specific details about the projects themselves were revealed. Despite the lack of detailed information, the mere names of these projects have sparked widespread speculation and concern regarding their nature and objectives.

Operation and governance

The governance structure of the House of the Learned is as enigmatic as its research agenda. It is overseen by a council comprising representatives from its supporting organizations: the ESB Group, the Humanist Vanguard, the Imperial Constancian Armed Forces, and the Trans-Euran Command. This is to ensure that its activities align with the strategic interests of Constancia and its partners.

Programs and Research

While specific details of ongoing research projects are classified, it is known that the House of the Learned undertakes work in fields such as advanced materials science, quantum computing, aerospace engineering, bioengineering, and medicine. The institution also plays a key role in the development of military technologies for the Raspur Pact, contributing to the enhancement of the pact's defense capabilities.
