[Setting] The Manifestum Sector

The Manifestum Sector

(WIP)

Sector Governor: Rosabel Goswinus

Sector Capital World: Manifestus

Segmentum: Ultima

      The Manifestum Sector is an Imperial sector of the Milky Way Galaxy. It is located to the galactic core western border of Segmentum Ultima located around the middle of the border's length. Settled and conquered by the Imperium in the 36th Millenium, the Manifestum Sector has had human settlements and population for millennia dating back to the Dark Age of Technology. Lost technology with markings of ancient Terran tribes were found and the histories of those worlds have been shaped by the influence of their ancient foundings and their newer masters. It has enjoyed a relatively peaceful existence as part of the Imperium being buffeted by more dangerous sectors with larger concentrations of forces all around it. The Manifestum Sector's history is still one of strife and conflict with the various dangers and troubles that plague it. These were either created by the Imperium and its enemies or are a result of ancient things that have been there since before humanity stepped foot on the place. Due to its location, it is in the perfect location for encroachment by a great many of Mankind's foes including vile Tyranids offshoots from invasions in the galactic north east to the hated T'au empire, its allied xenos, and its probing elements that also reside in the Segmentum Ultima, orks of the various warring tribes found almost ubiquitously in the galaxy, the duplicitous craftworld Eldar, the sadistic Dark Eldar, and of course Man's most infernal and insidious enemy. 

Baroquia - A sprawling, beautiful civilized world of hundreds of principalities rivaling each other. Here princes, noble republic aristocrats, theocrats, plutocrats, and the like wage every type of conflict imaginable from the barest slight to outright war. Known for the extreme ostentatiousness of its myriad rulers, the extravagant operas it creates, and the fineness of its clothes. It is found near the center-east of the sector.

Bianjing - A frontier world that has the contrast of large cities and the great wild. Once colonized by an ancient alliance of Terran tribes that once occupied Merika and the Yndonesic Bloc during the time of the Unification Wars. It is known for its high-quality silk obtained from the larva of dangerous bug-like Silk Striders. On its surface lies the recurring threat of the barbaric "Tiangou" mutant xenos as they are called by the local language.

Grace's Pasture - An agriworld that specializes in raising grox in large amounts.

Gehenna - A Death World and once a prison planet for Shrket. It is a world of long deserts, giant arthropods, and little water. Gehenna was the site of a long nuclear war that plunged the topside into a cold radioactive desert. The land's livable space is a severely tiny fraction compared to the vastness of the lifeless surface. Those who survive Gehenna do so in mountain fortresses known as qlipoths that rise above the irradiated wastes and have settlements built into the rock. 

Manifestus - A Hive world found in the western side of the Sector. Manifestus was renamed from its original lost empire's name. It was the first world in the sector conquered by the Imperium. The war waged led to the name of the sector and the planet by its nature being quick and efficient war won with a dearth of resources by the attackers. The victories won were said to be by the blessing of the Emperor and a sign of His will that the sector should be ruled. It was decided this would be the foundation of the Imperium's rule of the sector.

Sestra - A civilized world found near the center-west of the sector. Home to four sprawling continents and a large interconnected river with fields, steppes, mountains, deserts, jungles, tundra, polar caps. It has a wide and diverse biome and has many similarities to M3 Terra. Has a rather powerful central government that is still swayed greatly by merchant houses and a small but influential aristocratic class. Also a common stop for voidships on the way to other sectors being near the center of the grand warp paths that are well traveled and well navigated.

Shrket - A shrine world with varied climates, geology, and clans. Ruled by a union of caliphs, priest-kings, the world is ruled from top to bottom to the scriptures of the Lecitio Divinatus and to the glory of the God-Emperor. The history of Shrket is one of warring powers that kept a constant struggle until the Imperium chose preferred groups of religious leaders that took easily to the message of the Missionaria Galaxia and followed the whims of the new owners of the planet. The Imperial Guard generals set out the new borders of the caliphates and chose specific clans to rule them. This suited those clans well as finally given the edge over their competitors and with a prayer on their lips and fire in their heart conquered the rest of the world for the glory of the Emperor. Shrket is a world of deserts broken up by oases, rolling beautiful green hills, steppes, plains, great big basins between mountains, and oceans.

Wylde - A feudal world found in the northwestern reach of the Sector. Rather out of the way and the paths to it through the warp being weakly mapped out, it often only receives communication by its ruling masters once every decade. It is a planet full of fervent knights, nobles, and peasants that are extremely loyal to the Imperium at large. Its culture was created via necessity against the constant threats of mutated beastmen and feral orks on the planet's surface. The arrival of the Imperium only entrenched society more and gave them a focal point of worship and devotion in the God-Emperor of mankind. They see the voidships of the Imperium as the hands of the Imperium itself smiting the wicked and vile and ensuring the prosperity of the valorous kingdom. To this point they gladly give up their knights to form rough rider regiments to fight in their god's myriad wars.

Yaketsuku - A dead world and the former home of the destroyed Emperor's Flames chapter. Destroyed by a traitor librarian in M40.939.142 with help of a Thousand Sons Warband.
