Disappearing Empire?

[GhostHunter]

When did the Corrino Empire fall? It didn't exist during Letos riegn but Paul was Emperor......So when did it actually fall?

[Mahdi]

Paul usurped it.

[Acriku]

I just thought the empire fell when Paul dethroned Shaddam IV in Dune.

[Mahdi]

No, Paul usurped it and became Emperor himself.

Like Acriku and Mahdi said, the Corrino empire ended in 10,193 (or shortly afterwards, considering the "red tape") when Paul took over. But the Corrino line lived on for another 3500 years.

Yes didn't Shaddam live on salusa secondus in Dune Messiah. With a leigion of sardaukar as I seem to remember.

[Terror]

Irulan was married to Paul, and thus yes, corrino was usurped by the atreides

[Anathema]

In GEoD LetoII had the heir of house Corrino killed.

[Inhuien]

The empire really fell apart when LetoII died,All that happened at the end of the first FH novel was a change of management. And hi2 Vangard3K :)

[Caid Ivik]

With Leto dead, empire has fallen. That caused all that famine and scarcing. Whole known universe fell into anarchy, where only real power was Bene Gesserit, and even they refused to rule.

[Vanguard3000]

And hi2 Vangard3K :)

Err, hi. Sorry if I should know this or anything, but I don't recognize the name. Are you from another board or something?

The Imperial House Corrino became just another house when Paul took the throne. Irulan became Atreides when she married Paul thus it was not actually a Corrino on the throne. But House Corrino persisted for quite a while and was never actually totally wiped out as far as I know.
