The '''Imperial Academy of the New Pacific Order''' was institution which oversaw the questioning and induction of new recruits, who help them study everything that has to do with the Order, from Francoism to our Emperor {{NPOlead|emp}}. When recruits feel ready they then take the exam, which would put everything they had learned to the test. The Academy will then grade the exams, and those who pass are welcomed as full members into the Order.

On November 17 2018, [[Lord of Darkness]] ordered the Academy to be managed by [[Military Command of the New Pacific Order|Military Command]] with questioning of applicants now managed by the [[Praetorian Guard of the New Pacific Order|Praetorian Guard]].

The Imperial Academy was reformed on May 5, 2013 with an announcement by Imperial Officer [[Angelus Beck]]. The Academy was lead by a Provost rather than a School Master, with [[Prodigy]] being the first appointment. The Academy ran as an independent department until February 6, 2014 when Imperial Officer [[Qazzian]] announced it was being merged with other various Internal Affairs departments, to form a new department.

===History===

The original incarnation of the Imperial Academy covered a broader range of duties. The Academy Staff were the gatekeepers of the Order and were responsible for running the NPO's application process as well as educating new members with the exam.

During the application process, Instructors, Professors and other staff would ask the applicants questions pertaining to their alliance history, current aid, wars, and other questions relating to their time in Cybernations.

This ended when, on November 5, 2012 the responsibility of processing applications was transferred to the [[Praetorian Guard of the New Pacific Order|Praetorian Guard]] in an effort to reduce overlap and streamline procedures. Two months after [[Lord of Darkness]] announced the end of the Imperial Academy, the department was fully closed and its remaining duties were split between other departments.
