The Kanatak Mounted Peacekeeping Force (Equites Pax Protectores Canatacanus: High Gothic) is an Auxiia unit for the Legio VII "Raptors". They specialize in counterinsurgency and counterterrorism operations, which has been their stated goal since their founding in M29 994 as the Imperial Kitcheneric Arctic Peacekeeping Force. After the submission of Emperor Vincent CCXXVII Kitchener to Farran the planet was admitted into The Imperium of Man under the United Empire of Blighton and Normaund in M31 876.

## Foundation and Pre-Imperial History

After the rebellion of the Northmen, Emperor Vincent LXX established the Imperial Kitcheneric Arctic Peacekeeping force, which was established to protect the property of the Kitcheneric Northlander Company. These early commanders began as a simple guard and police force, but within the next 20 years they had begun spying on suspected dissidents and remove them if suspicions were proven correct. When the Kanatakans invented mass communications technologies, they began to spy on radio and internet communications. This became their preferred method after the failed Kitchener Revolution.

The KMPF finds popular ideologies for dissidents such as nationalism, socialism, independence, etc and then establishes communities to draw dissidents in and track the members of those communities Through numerous shell corporations, almost all communications technology manufacturers work for the KMPF, including black market manufacturers.This allows the KMPF to prevent dissidents from establishing secure connections.

To prevent these groups from becoming a threat without simply killing all of them the KMPF has developed a number of techniques. The first is to hire members of dissident communities to act as members of opposing dissidents and create conflict and division, therefore reducing exposure. The second is to alter the meanings of what political labels are and what they entail to make them contradictory and difficult to sell. The KMPF has established 76 completely different versions of the planet's history, including fake religions ethnicities, ethnicities, and languages, and an Inquisitorial investigation has found that whatever the original was any records of it have been removed. The KMPF also establishes new dissident ideologies to further divide dissident communities, and make them less likely to establish a threat to the Kitchener dynasty. The Kitchener dynasty itself, and its centuries long rule is also believed to be a fabrication as was found by the Inquisitorial investigation. In the event that a member of a dissident organization either successfully organizes a public protest or terrorist attack, the KMPF would send out another competing dissident organization. If another organization is not available then KMPF officers are helicoptered in and use axes to kill them all. In online discussion boards where dissident groups would organize the KMPF is usually referred to as using snipers to remove dissidents, however with these public executions the words "sniper rifle", "precision rifle", or "designated" "marksmen rifle" fell out of use, and "ax" became a general term for any firearm, while the former words began to refer to axes. This story may be a fabrication, however.

## Arrival of Farran and Incorporation into the Imperium

When Farran arrived on the planet in M 31 876 he was disgusted at the authoritarian rule of the Kitchener's. His marines marched on Kitchener City. After a brief battle with the KMPF, which had not faced an organized military force in over 500 centuries, Emperor Vincent CCXXVII Kitchener of Kanatak exited his "hovel" which had come to mean palace, got down on his knees and pleaded to Farran "I win! I win! Don't let me face life! I've ruled well for my people, and have offered them great assassinations in their QoD! Behold the palaces of my people and know that the self-mades live in highcont If you want! I can take you to any urban on the planet and let you see!" Farran shot the Emperor, and declared to his daughter that she was now queen, a vassal state under the emperor. Society changed drastically in the following years, and marines had to spend time keeping down the dissidents and making sense of the LPMPF. For their crimes the LPMPF was made into an auxiliary force to sow dissent among the enemies of the Imperium and establish stability on new worlds. They showed themselves to be exceptional at the first half of their jobs during the war against the Interex, where luddite rebellions broke out and tried to destroy the governing AIs.
