I don't know. "Let it be the Empire" sounds like a nifty new advertising
slogan. Kind of like "Come back to Jamaica" or "Go with a winner."
Here's some other possibilities for the Empire to boost its public image:
may'vaD 'oHHa'chochpu' neH.
chal vaQ tIpuv.
lay' DIchenmoHbe'taH. tlhIngan DIchenmoHtaH.
toQDuj: "Dujpuvbel" ghajbogh Duj'e'.
tlha'bogh puqmey' ghom wIv'e'.
Here are *very* loose translations, rot13'd:
Vg'f abg whfg sbe onggyr nalzber.
Syl gur ntterffvir fxvrf.
Jr qba'g znxr cebzvfrf. Jr znxr Xyvatbaf.
Gur Oveq bs Cerl: gur fuvc jvgu "snueirtahtra."
Gur pubvpr bs gur Arkg Trarengvba.
