History
In the past, the Katsuragi Protectorat was deeply stratified along class and gender lines, leaving one to assume that such a regimented society would never deign to permit women to assume the mantle of warrior and engage in frontline combat. That assumption, however, could not be further from the truth.

As more than ten years ago, acting on the counsel of his forward-thinking son the Crown Prince, the Emperor Yoshiro saw fit to establish the Imperial Women's Warfare Academy deep in the heart of (insert Ulthuan location here), with the goal of training the Empire's finest and fittest female subjects in both traditional and new ways of battle. Segregating the academy by gender was said to ensure proper focus and discipline.

Although presented to the public as a return to the highly-trained female spear cavalry of the Protectorate's storied past, this societal shift proved to be quite controversial amongst the Protectorate more-conservative subjects, with many families of note forbidding their daughters from taking up arms and enlisting (not that they necessarily would have been accepted into the IWWA anyhow). Expressing frustration at this publicly, Crown (insert) took it upon (insert) to intervene. Soon after, dissent was quelled and the ranks of the Academy began to swell with driven young women, eager to learn the ways of war.

As disapproval turned to fascination, legions of cynical journalists, inspired schoolgirls, and heartsick young men formed encampments around the Academy's impenetrable walls, waiting in the vain hope that they would catch a brief glimpse of the women training within. Public expectations soon grew to a fever pitch, fueled by the massively popular weekly manga series "Flying Girl Azami" and its accompanying television series. When the public demanded, would the gates of the Academy finally open? When would the fruits of the Emperor's labor be revealed?

"Soon." was always the answer.

And after eight years, the doors of the Academy finally opened.

But what awaited the frenzied public proved to be beyond anyone's expectations: These doors, it turned out, were on the Academy's roof.

The eager young girls who had entered the Academy so long ago now emerged as formidable women, battle-ready warriors armed to the teeth and trained within an inch of their lives--the Women's Elite Aerial Infantry Division, soon to be christened by an excited public as the "Rocket Angels". Instantly recognizable for their state-of-the-art, aerial battlesuits, shoulder-mounted plasma missile pods, kinetic blaster, and the notorious "Paralysis whip", these Angels soon proved to be anything but merciful.

Cutting a swathe across the battlefields of (insert), routing (insert) and (insert) alike, the Rocket Angels quickly gained a reputation for ferocious tenacity, descending from the skies in a shower of light and destruction, rending the Protectorate's enemies asunder, and achieving victory even when the odds seemed stacked against them. In time, it became clear to (insert) that few wished to stand against (insert) devastating progeny, and those that unwisely chose to do would quickly perish -- and so the (insert) of the Protectorate stood vindicated, his Rocket Angels an unparalleled success. And with it came the Mecha Kitsune, and finally the law that banned women in the military dissolved.
