A lot of Space Marine equipment is very old and very holy. Mostly No-one knows in the Imperium apart from parts of the "Cult of the Machine god", how to make any more of some things they use, like the powerful Dreadnought armour, which is why the space marines send off mechanically gifted Space marines to the "Adeptus Mechanicus" to train in order to become an elite of the machine god, and in battle they repair and recover such things as their Rhino Troop Carriers, or their other tanks. Space Marines wear special suits of armour, often holy, called power armour, to help them fight better. All Space Marines are genetically engineered to be very tough. They can live for a very long time, and have an extra heart and an extra set of lungs. They are also trained to be very brave and religious, as well as being trained to be good at shooting and fighting. Some Space Marines have psychic powers (think magic powers) - these are called Librarians in most chapters, they can have powers such as in the case of one from the "Dark Angels" Chapter, shoot what appears to be flamethrower blasts from his eyes and mouth. There are also Space Marines who act like priests, called Chaplains, who forward the worship of the God Emperor of Man.
A Space Marine army generally includes:
Chaos Space Marines must kill everything and let the galaxies burn. They are fallen Adeptus Astartes of who fell to Chaos 10,000 years ago, at the start of the Horus Heresy in the 30th Millenia mainly led by the then Warmaster Horus Lupercal, Primarch of the Luna Wolves (now Black Legion), who decided that he was stronger and more just than the Emperor, and they had a great war, the said Horus Heresy, that destroyed many planets. Horus nearly won, even reaching Holy Terra in his conquests, but the Emperor and his forces was stronger. In the end, Horus was killed by the Emperor's sacrifice and the Astartes that had followed him/ generally fell to Chaos but did not join Horus went to the Eye of Terror, where they still live. Chaos Marines look extremely different to regular Space Marines, and often have spiky protrusions, skulls and mutations. They also have special units that are dedicated to their gods and are useful in different roles. At the time of the Horus Heresy 9 of the 18 total Astartes legions fell to Chaos these include: Luna Wolves (now Black Legion, Thousand Sons, Death Guard, World Eaters, Word Bearers, Night Lords, Alpha Legion, Iron Warriors and
Daemons are evil spirits of Chaos that have come into our universe to destroy stuff. Depending on which god they serve (or none in particular, favouring rather to worship Chaos Undivided), they can look and play very different - Khorne, The Chaos God of blood, anger, violence and hate, has vicious fighters, who use large Swords and Axes, while Tzeentch, the Chaos God of Fate and Sorcery, has demons with constantly changing body parts, that can use the Warpfire of their master. Nurgle, the Chaos God of pestilence, stagnation and plagues, has really tough demons, which mostly look like one horned zombies, and Slaanesh, the Chaos God of excess, pleasure and debauchery, has really fast demons, which resemble barely dressed human women.

Daspletosaurus
Daspletosaurus ("frightful lizard") was a tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur that was 26-33 feet (8-10 m) long and weighed perhaps 2-3 tons (3000 kg).
It had tiny horns behind its eyes and its arms were a bit longer than those of "T. rex". It may have been an ancestor of "Tyrannosaurus". This bipedal meat-eater lived in marshes by streams in what is now Alberta, Canada, during the Upper Cretaceous period, 76-72 million years ago. It may have preyed upon Triceratops. It was named by D.A. Russell in 1970. The type species is "D. torosus".

Mitte (locality)
Mitte was the most central locality of Berlin ("Mitte" is German for centre). It was set up in 1920, when Groß-Berlin was set up, and in 2001 it was joined with Wedding and Tiergarten to make a new borough called Bezirk Mitte.
Mitte was in East Berlin, and had a lot of Berlin's historic sites. The Pergamon Museum, Unter den Linden and the Brandenburg Gate were in Mitte.
In 2001 Mitte was joined with two boroughs from West Berlin. This helped to break down the idea of a divided city, and put the important tourist centre of Berlin under one local government.
Groß-Berlin
Groß-Berlin or Greater Berlin was created by an act of the Prussian parliament made on 27 April 1920. The act was called the Greater Berlin Act () for short. Its full name was the "Law Regarding the Reconstruction of the New Local Authority of Berlin" ().
The act said that on 1 October 1920 "Greater Berlin" should be taken away from the Province of Brandenburg and become a new district.
The new district was made up of:
The new Berlin was 13 times bigger than the old. Its area went from to and the population doubled from approximately 1.9 million to near 4 million, with almost 1.2 million of these new inhabitants coming from the 7 surrounding towns alone.
Groß-Berlin was divided into 20 boroughs ("Verwaltungsbezirke"):
Apart from minor changes, the city boundary defined in the law is the same as today, except for some changes made during the time of the Berlin Wall. During the 1970s and 1980s three new boroughs were made in East Berlin when other boroughs were split up.
Pardon
A pardon is a decision that absolves a convicted person of a criminal conviction. A pardon may be "full" or "partial":
Pardons are sometimes given to people who are wrongly convicted. In that case, the person is cleared of that conviction, as if never convicted.
The practice varies greatly between countries. In the United States a pardon for a federal conviction may be granted by the President, while pardons for state convictions may be granted by state governors.
