Imperium Tertiatus

The Imperium Tertiatus is a young, yet surprisingly, powerful empire that has formed on the Minecraftian galaxy's eastern fringe, the side that faces towards the neighboring Milky Way. They are descended from the trillions of settlers that were sent out of the galaxy to colonize any distant galaxy.
== History ==
Some time during the Imperium of Man's history, the High Lords of Terra took consideration of the multitude of threats in their home galaxy, from malicious forces of Chaos to savage alien species. The High Lords then issued a protocol known as imperatoria evacuatione, commanding that one out of every one hundred people be sent to a nearby galaxy. Before they could begin selecting people, however, they had to spend a few centuries building a fleet large enough to carry all of these people. Finally, the fleet was constructed, and took a 2 century-long journey through the Warp that would have destroyed the fleet if specially-bred Navigators and Astronomican psykers were not on board. 
Upon arrival into the Minecraftian Galaxy, the diaspora began to colonize various worlds within their region of space. One of the first worlds to be colonized was later known as Terra Secundi. From here, the members of every branch began to organize their new government, somewhat reminiscent of the High Lords of Terra.
The Imperium Tertiatus was not encountered by any Alliance members until the mid-36th millennium, when a Union merchant vessel crossed paths with a Rogue Trader ship. 
The Imperium Tertiatus continues to exist within MG-1 to this day, dominating an area of space known as the Segmentum Novus. 
== Relations with the Alliance ==
As is the case with the Imperium of Man, the Imperium Tertiatus is not accepting of alien species or independent human empires. They were especially enraged to find out that they were not the first humans to exist within this galaxy, and that the Union allied itself with multiple alien species. Despite this, they maintain a peaceful relationship with the Alliance, and may occasionally trade. However, the Inquisition's no-tolerance policy towards heretical acts has resulted in Exterminatus of many worlds, including a few Alliance worlds. 
Upon discovering the Union, the Imperium Tertiatus was surprised to see Astartes chapters, most of which were the same as those in their very government.
The Adrarian 1st Company includes members from the Imperium Tertiatus, including those from the Imperial Guard, Sisters of Battle, Adeptus Mechanicus, Navis Nobilite, Inquisition, Imperial Army, and even a Rogue Trader and his arch-militant, as well as a priest of the Ecclesiarchy.

=== High Lords of Terra ===
The High Lords stand as the ruling government of the Imperium Tertiatus, based on their capital world of Terra Secundi. They are the heads of their designated organizations and decide the day-to-day lives of their citizens. There are 12 High Lords at the head of the Senatorum Imperialis.
There are 9 positions that are permanent, due to their organizations' extreme vitality to the Imperium Tertiatus:
* Master of the Astronomican
* Master of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica
* Master of the Adeptus Administratum
* Paternoval Envoy of the Navis Nobilite
* Inquisitorial Representative
* Fabricator-General of the Adeptus Mechanicus
* Grand Provost Marshal of the Adeptus Arbites
* Grand Master of the Officio Assassinorum
* Ecclesiarch of the Adeptus Administratum
There are 3 rotating positions on the High Lords of Terra that may be filled with any of these officials:
* Abbess Sanctorum of the Adepta Sororitas
* Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes
* Lord High Admiral of the Imperial Navy
* Lord Commander Militant of the Astra Militarum
* Supreme Armsman of the Imperialis Auxilia
* Lord Commander of the Segmentum Novus
* Cardinals of the Holy Synod
* Chancellor of the Estate Imperium
* Speaker for the Chartist Captains
Even below the High Lords exists an administrative body known as the Senatorum Imperialis, or the Imperial Senate. They contain the officials of the lesser organizations within the Imperium:
* Chancellor of the Senatorum Imperialis
* Lord Constable of the Synopticon
* Commandant of the Schola Progenium
=== Planetary Defense Forces ===
The planetary defense forces, or PDFs, are the primary military forces of Imperial worlds. Rather than be sent out to defend the entirety of the Imperium Tertiatus, planetary defense forces are tasked as being the primary line of defense for Imperial colony worlds. Some colony worlds may have multiple PDF regiments.
=== Imperial Army ===
The Imperial Army, otherwise known as the Imperialis Auxilia and Excertus Imperialis in High Gothic, is the primary military of the Imperium Tertiatus itself. It is second to the more elite Imperial Guard, and supposedly made to resemble the Imperium of Man's military forces during the Great Crusade. The Imperial Army contains multiple regiments composed of billions of men and women.
