	Over the centuries, the role of the Imperator had been the subject of much debate.

The '''Warring States Period''', emerging as the [[Dominion of Astraeus]] collapsed, was replete with warfare. At the time, Mars was believed to embody the state—which state exactly was up to the outcome of warfare. These states were absolute monarchies, impossible to unify and impossible to develop.

-'''Martial Space''' is a multi-species international union occupying much of [[Aylathiya]] near the [[Lux Aeterna|galactic core]]. The region is named for the deity, [[Mars (Cosmoria)|Mars]], a figure recognized as divine or holy in all three major religions and most of the minor religions. The most common faith, [[Martial Civil Religion]], was official state doctrine until recently following mounting pressure to secularize. Today, the [[Greater Martial Consilium]] is meant to be religiously neutral, despite the spear iconography on its flag. The head of the Consilium, the [[Imperator (Cosmoria)|Imperator]], is the voice of Mars, and therefore the people who compose the deity—"''Mars Martialis Spatio es, populo es, gensa es''"—"Mars is Martial Space, its people, its nation."

Not only new territories but the disgruntled countryside aristocracy, remnants of the Dominion of Astraeus, fought for political power. Jezebel's death left a power vacuum in Enyo.

 The Imperator, like the Archon of the Republic, has unlimited power save for limitations laid out in the '''Edict of Decency'''. The Consilium, through the Aurora Commission, controls taxation, the treasury, and Martial Space's large military, the '''Ruby Spear'''. The Imperator commands the much smaller '''Ruby Shield''', essentially an independent military from the capital city, although even the capital is not the sole domain of the Imperator. A group of margraves, elected officials despite their title, rule the capital in a hybrid executive-legislative council with the Imperator.

	The longest unification in history was that of the legendary [[Triumvirate Civilization]]. Stretching across all 15 of Martial Space's stars, the Triumvirate unseated [[Sedrua]] as the rulers of [[Aylathiya]] and were well on their way to universal hegemony. The common era is defined by the collapse of this mighty civilization, its collapse so traumatic for the universe that many places have still not recovered. For Martial Space, the collapse was so traumatic that the population fell to under one trillion—a number divided across ten species. Soon after, the region fell into endless conflict as what relics that could be preserved were bitterly fought over.

	There would be one group that came to worship war, the [[Neo-Terranism\|Neo-Terran Party]], whose ideology was devoted to the maximization of conflict. This would be the origin of [[Mars]], the embodiment of war itself. As they became more devoted to war, the inner circle of the party would become [[Paladins]], those so devoted to a concept that they manifest [[Thaumaturgy\|powers]] related to their pursuits. The Neo-Terrans killed [[Titania]] and Mars killed [[Ma'eau]], two of the Triumvirate's rulers. From here, Mars would make war against [[Nocturne]], [[Solomon of Kristadt]], the [[Alkan Order]], [[Abnormal Commodities Exchange\|A.C.E.]], and even entire species that got in its way. Today, a complex ritual keeps the entity in check, contained within the [[Imperator]], the ruler of Martial Space. This gives them tremendous power, both literally and in a political sense.

	An estimated 15 trillion reside within this realm, split between [[Sagittarium]] and the [[Greater Martial Consilium]]. The region has had many phases in which the organization of the central government changed. One thing has remained constant, however. No modern government has ever had sovereignty over its territory. The central government shares sovereignty with thousands of disparate organizations. The result is a convoluted mess of a political system that never qualifies as a "state" but merely thousands of para-states vying for supremacy under the Imperator.
