Biography
Most of the Emile's life is unkonwn as the official records start in the 2308 when he led a rag-tag fleet of merchants against an FWL fleet led by Admiral Ishidai and managed to inflict big losses on them without loosing much himself, starting the blockade of Liao which lasted until April of 2309. He did this to defend Arboris which gained protectorate status by the Liao Republic.
In the years that followed the lifting of the blockade, Emile Liao raised both his planet's and his own influence primarily through the accumulation of additional merchant shipping. At the time of his death, the merchant marine was above a thousand vessels in strength.
In addition to building a shipping empire, Emile also collected several new worlds for the Republic of Liao and transformed it into a fully fledged Duchy of Liao in 2315 and appoiting himself Duke.
