Editing Imperial Space

[[File: Imperial-Sunburst-Sun-Scouts-wiki.png|150px|right]]
[[Imperial Space]] is [[space]] controlled and regulated by the [[Third Imperium]]. 
* [[Imperial Navy]] [[starship]]s ensure the safety of its starways. 
* Local customs and regulations may apply, but open passage and access to trade is upheld by the Third Imperium. 
* It carries the connotation of a location that is part of the [[Third Imperium]] proper.
* It is an [[Astrography]] term.

==Description ([[Specifications]])==
The Imperium is best considered to rule the space that separates the [[star]]s rather than the [[world]]s themselves. Individual worlds are left to their own devices, providing they pay their taxes, acknowledge the power of the Imperium, and obey the basic laws it promulgates. The Imperium wields power in space, protecting trade, encouraging travel and commerce, and controlling diplomatic relations. Imperial power is present on worlds in the form of consulates, bureaucratic offices, and bases; occasionally larger enclaves of Imperial power are placed where they can enhance the empire's strength.

Imperial mapping conventions have divided the Imperium's territory into [[sector]]s, which in turn are divided into [[subsector]]s and [[World-System|system]]s. Groupings of [[sector]]s, called [[domain]]s, have been created above the sector level. {{Page cite|name=Library Data (N-Z)|page=6}}

==History & Background ([[Dossier]])==
After interstellar civilization fell apart and the [[Long Night]] seized [[Charted Space]], the tiny coalition of remaining societies centered around the [[Sylean Federation]] were faced with a choice: How can one regulate, control, and patrol the starways? Should one even try to control such vast expanses? 

The Ziru Sirka once did it at the cost of freedom. They oppressed and absorbed nearly every divergent population they encountered.

The [[Rule of Man]] came to a similar conclusion with thousands less years of experience. Of course, the [[Second Imperium]] was a relatively short-lived experiment in interstellar governance.

[[Cleon Zhunastu]] had studied both of the previous Imperiums. Building a cohesive [[society]] and [[civilization]] can be a daunting task yet [[Cleon I]] was determined to end the [[Long Night]] and reestablish interstellar [[civilization]]. His pragmatism and some say rapaciousness prompted him to found the [[Third Imperium]]. It took centuries and much experimentation by many [[Emperor]]s to find the current blend of [[governance]] that we now call the ''[[Feudal Confederation]]''.

== Worlds & Sectors (Political [[Astrography]]) == 
The [[Third Imperium]] controls vast swathes of [[Charted Space]]. Some have called the [[Third Imperium]] an ''Empire of many Dukes''. A complicated system of governance developed over a several millennia timespan of the three Imperiums and has the following characteristics:
* Empire Politic ([[Emperor]])
** [[Domain]] ([[Archduke]])
*** [[Sector]] (Sector [[Duke]])
**** [[Subsector]] ["[[Duchy]]" or "[[District]]"] (Subsector [[Duke]])  
***** [[Cluster]] or [[Trace]] of several worlds ["[[County]]"] (Dukes and lesser noblity)
****** World ["Marquisate"] (Marquis and lesser noblity)

==== Political Divisions: 1105 ====
'''Territorial Organization:''' 
* The Imperium’s territory is divided into [[sector]]s. 
* These are, in turn, divided into subsectors and systems. 
* Groups of sectors, called [[domain]]s, have been created above the sector level.
* Some parts of sectors are further subdivided into duchies and counties.
* Frontier areas are sometimes designated ''[[district]]s'' and later given more formal subsector designations as development occurs.

=== Territorial Overview: 1105 ===
The three Imperiums each expanded or lost territory within the Imperium proper:
