Snowman Empire

The Poman Empire was an ancient empire, now long gone. It is famous for conquering all of Antarctica from the various barbarians living there.

History
The Poman Empire was started on several hills, and the valleys between them. It slowly added to the villages living on the hills, and soon became a large city called Pome. However, the Pomans were not satisfied with what they had, and expanded, conquering the many barbarian tribes living in Antarctica one by one and adding their villages to their already massive collection. After they had conquered about a third of their icy continent, a general, Julius Scissor Penguin, felt that he should make Pome an empire. He pronounced himself dictator-for-life. Sadly, he was murdered by a penguin, Prutus, who squirted hot sauce at him, badly burning him. He soon died, and left the empire to his nephew, Scissor Augustus. Under Scissor Augustus's reign, the Poman Empire conquered over half of Antarctica. His various successors, the other Scissors, added so much to the empire that it had fully conquered the whole continent. It is to this date the largest empire.

Downfall
The various barbarian tribes living on the islands off the coast of Antarctic slowly reconquered their former lands, pushed the Pomans back to their capital, Pome. After a long siege, they got inside Pome and laid waste to it, killing penguins with hot sauce and destroying the buildings and artwork. Pome was destroyed, and the barbarians ruled.
