The pandaren Empire will never comeback into play?

[Octavius]

10000 years have passed and Pandaria is still in lack of power and government. May the Alliance/Horde rediscovering of Pandaria will bring the pandaren to choose a new emperor and build a nation able to influence the world?

[ghostblade]

na. they have done good for 10000 years.

I like to think of them like Belgium was recently (don't think it's still leaderless) - didn't they not have a government for like 270 days or something?

10,000 years is a bit longer than that.


I think Pandaria is more or less "lead" by the Shado-pan and golden lotus... they probably settled disputes and whatnot.

I guess the looming threat of the Sha obliterating everything if people got too uppity was enough to keep the Pandaren in line.

Yes it's true but I was talking about a powerful international force. Something which could operate in the whole world.

535 days, don't diminish one of our only achievements!

OT: I don't think Pandaren as a whole race need to get a new Emperor or something, those Pandaren that do want to go out and make a difference already joined the Alliance or Horde.

Ahahaha wonderful

You had Hercule Poirot! Doesn't matter that he wasn't real, we have Sherlock Holmes.

[leaks]

The celestials are the leadership.

IMO, Lorewalker Cho or Chen Stormstout should be made Emperor in a novel or next expansions's pre-patch.

[Trassk]

EMPEROR CHO!!

Tell me you wouldn't want this!! I Dare You!!

[Rigimi44]

Chen Stormstout for Emperor 2013!

[Darmalus]

There is no Pandaren Empire, and there never will be. It's a collection of small towns and villages linked by common history and language. WoW hinges on there being no powers other than the Horde and Alliance. It would be better if their were, but there won't be.

Hey any time you see some cool French thing it turns out it's actually Belgian.

Plus your beer, shit's good.

It doesn't work like that. There is no international force in Azeroth. The Pandaren will handle pandaria, lend help when needed, and if they need it, the favor will be returned.

Or maybe in 5.4 itself.

There would be two good opportunities for such a reveal. One is after we beat the Sha of Pride the Celestials and what's left of the Golden Lotus leadership anoint a new Emperor and begin work on restoring the Vale, while we leave for Orgrimmar. The other would be after the new Warchief is declared, the new Pandaren emperor appears and congratulates the new Warchief in his victory and expresses hope of working with him in the future...but warns that if the Horde ever threatens Pandaria again, "The Pandaren will have no choice but to march under the Lion's Banner".

Chen didn't even arrive on Pandaria until around the same time we did. He's pretty much a total stranger to the area. And I don't think Cho would accept such a position...he doesn't seem to want to participate in making history, only to record it.

If any of the current major characters were to step up to become Emperor, I think Taran Zhu is the most likely candidate. Of course that'd be a pretty bad outcome for the Horde and Alliance. :P

[Florena]

Not sure they really need one. They live their lives in separate villages which seem to have their own smaller governments, with the Shado-Pan serving as their military and protection form outside threats. Though maybe a threat will come along that forces them to unite, I don't see it happening.
