Imperial Space

is the former domain of the Mage Imperium and its neighbors. It is the "known cosmos" as the Mage Princes understood it. From another perspective, it's the region of space that wasn't dominated by the Naga. Presently, Imperial Space is a convenient designation, because it echoes Aeldrum's centrality and supremacy, which the Serene Duchy does not dispute.
It has also come to refer to the kind of nations that exist within it, usually well-developed, cosmpolitan cores with subjects and outlying colonies. Celestial Space in contrast does not have any worlds that compare to Bishant or Aeldrum in this way. Major powers in Imperial Space also tend to control entire worlds directly, unlike the major powers of Celestial Space.
