Ceironian National Industrial Conglomerate

The Ceironian National Industrial Conglomerate (CNIC), also known as the Ceironian Conglomerate (CC), is a corporation with its assets, employees, and headquarters being located almost entirely within the Ceironian Union. It consists of seven major subsidiary companies which are directly administered by the Conglomerate Financial Board and Executive Subsidiary Branch. Dozens of other companies are under the CNIC umbrella as lesser subsidiaries which generally include similar industries to the primary seven companies. It is the richest company in the world by revenue and asset value, making up a significant portion of the annual economic output of the Ceironian Union. The centre of operations for the CNIC is located within the Nimroy Tower in the city of Kashini, which serves as the location of many enterprises such as the Mass-Calculator Company, Kashini Extraterrestrial Kompany, Latango-Kashini Corporation and Nimroy-Hawkings Co. Within the state of Kashini also lies the Casino city of Ceirdon, which Nimroy-Entertainment's casino and hotel sector operates within, whilst the filming studios are located in the outskirts of Kashini and Gorsk. Spania Aeronautics and Inron Armaments & Armoured Automobiles are both military-industrial companies which serve as the main force behind the military-industrial economy of Ceironia.

Founded in 2427 during the merger of the Latango Arms Incorporated (now Latango-Kashini Corporation) and Spania General Arms (now Spania Aeronautics), the Ceironian National Industrial Conglomerate quickly became the largest Ceironian government military-industrial contractor. The CNIC prior to 2454 was known as the Ceironian National Arms Corporation (CNAC). Whilst currently serving as the head administrative and financial company within the CNIC, the Latango-Kashini Corporation used to be involved in the production of military equipment. However as of 2454 onward, those responsibilities were stripped and it became the conglomerate face. The SAC was merely renamed to a more suitable title due to it primarily serving within both the civilian and military aeronautics industries. Additional companies such as the Inron Arms Company and North Kashini Arms were renamed to Inron Armaments & Armoured Automobiles and the Kashini Extraterrestrial Kompany. The sudden change from arms to extraterrestrial is that the NKA evolved from being simply a missile production company, to a privatised space program initiative, which heavily increased CNIC public standing during the Nimroy Era.

From May 2427 to June 2441, the CNAC was led by CEP Arthur L. Maliokov, under his Executive Premiership the two companies extended as the largest military-industrial entities within the Ceironian Union in both their professions of small arms, combat vehicles, utility trucks, attack and fighter aircraft production. Most manufactory facilities produced by the two companies lied within the cities of Latango, Spania, Horyuxia and Jacan, providing employment to several dozen thousand workers within the formerly mentioned cities. Maliokov during this time period was ahead of his time in terms of worker treatment, safety standards and environmental regulations if there were any. Unlike other businesses during the time period, neither Latango or Spania cut corners to evade cost cuts, didn't partake in scamming workers out of their labour, or offshoring to countries such as Thraxia or Ginsukyo, which were common sources of offshoring by many Ceironian companies. This earnt the CNAC a reputation as being loyal to the nation and the people, with improved its reputation immensely despite being a war profiteer company, it also provided perks such as favourable taxes and and tax-cuts, which may have in turn allowed the CNAC to afford more and more lobbying abilities as a feedback loop. Maliokov in June of 2441 resigned from his Chief Executive President position having led the corporation from its founding, to the 2430s civil-war where the company first saw a major uptake in influence as a result of supporting the Tarasovites. Later providing the Premiership to Anton Churchill, leading the corporation during the 2440s towards a starlit future.

CEP Anton Churchill, who led the CNAC from June 2441 to March 2451, played a key part in ensuring near monopolisation of the armament industries within the internal market of the Ceironian Union. The Inron Arms Company & North Kashini Arms during his premiership in were both integrated into the CNAC which further brought about their control over the nation's armament production industries. The NKA was also the primary producer of the Skybreaker and Dawnbreaker missiles, and produced enormous amounts of nuclear capable ballistic missiles during the 2440s and 2450s at the company's peak prior to alteration into the KEK. By the end of Churchill's reign, the corporation stood tall as the most significant developer for military hardware, naval vessels, aircrafts and missile building. During the late 2440s, Douglas Tiberius Nimroy, who by 2451 would be elected leader of the CNAC, was serving in the navy, quickly rising throughout the naval staff corps in despite only being in his twenties. At the point of the foundation of the Government-Business-Cooperative between the CNAC and Ceironian Tarasovian Government in March 2451, he was already a Rear-Admiral, and had heavy influence within the CNAC as the cousin of Churchill and was a key instrument in ensuring that the Latango Arms Inc. remained the dominant producer of Ceironian Navy vessels. Churchill upon the establishment of the GBC, resigned from his position and talks of providing the position to Nimroy was in the air. Throughout most of 2451, numerous associations within the financial board concluded that politically and economically, Nimroy being thwarted into the position was a great idea. What many would consider a risky move, resulted in a relatively positive outcome, Douglas T. Nimroy as a exceptionally qualified Rear-Admiral, was also an extremely competent Chief Executive President. During the 2450s his premiership would be no less beneficial to the corporation and Ceironia than the works and efforts of his predecessors.

2451-2463: Government-Business-Cooperative

The Ceironian Government-Business Cooperative Association was the formalisation of the alliance between the Ceironian Union government and Ceironian National Arms Corporation. It was a solidification of the already existing benefits that the Tarasovites provided to the CNAC and vice versa, such as the famous subsidisation favouritism, cheaply priced contracting, and other agreements that would generally be viewed as corruption and preposterous by outside parties. However, neither High Marshal Georgiy Tarasov and Chief Executive President Anton Churchill believed it as such upon its signing on the 2nd of March, 2451. As of the beginning of the 26th century, the Government-Business-Cooperative is still in full effect, with relative little resistance by the public towards its existence. During the 2460s struggle period and immediate aftermath of John T. Nimroy's assassination of High Marshal Larionovich in 2481, the pacts continuation was threatened by other corporations and the public to an extent. In the 2460s due to corruption and mass embezzlement, and in 2481 because the leader of the CNIC had quite literally murdered the High Marshal and called for revolution. Though, due to several benefactors, it never dissolved.

Douglas T. Nimroy, the most well known figure who led the CNAC from 2451-2454 and the refurbished CNIC from then on until his death in 2480, during the 2450s proved himself a fitting successor to Anton Churchill. The extremely relaxed corporate tax that existed within the Ceironian Union, which became even lower upon the founding of the GBC, extensive government investment and subsidisation schemes, all led to the CNAC being able to snowball into making up over roughly fifty percent of all military-industrial production goods within Ceironia by 2452. With a magnitude of benefactors applied to the CNAC, Douglas T. Nimroy transformed the corporation into the Ceironian National Industrial Conglomerate, as the corporation began to alter into a multi-industry company. North Kashini Arms was reprogrammed into what millions know today as the world's largest private space company, the Kashini Extraterrestrial Kompany, or KEK. Spania General Arms was changed to Spania Aeronautics, a significant military and civilian plane producer. Latango Arms Incorporated morphed into the administrative and financial face of the newly founded conglomerate as the Latango Corporation. Whilst the Inron Arms Company became Inron Armaments & Armoured Automobiles, constructing armoured personnel carriers, armoured fighting vehicles and other land based military products. It was at this point that Douglas T. Nimroy and the Latango Corporation completely solidified the three subsidiary companies into the fold, now allowing for the expansion into industries that didn't involve military-industrialism. Confidence in the CNIC from the government and general public from 2454 to 2460 was at its all time high as of that point, with similar peaks in support for the conglomerate during Nimroy's Kashini Governorship and Obadiah Stane during the 2490s.
