Imperial Afterglow is a MOD created by the 明风制作组 (Mingfeng) production team based on the Medieval 2 Total War engine, with a historical background set in the late Ming dynasty. The introduction states that the MOD's creator has a personal interest in the Ming dynasty and created the MOD for players who also enjoy the Ming and Qing dynasties. The historical background of the MOD starts in the year 1636 CE, when the Manchu Qing dynasty conquered the Chahar Mongols and established the Great Qing Empire. The MOD also covers the events of the "Byeongja Horan" in Korea in the same year and the peasant revolts in China due to drought, pests, and disease.
