The Corvantine Empire is a feudalistic absolute monarchy that exists in the lawless Caligari Sector of Segmentum Tempestus. Located in the sector plagued by small Warp Storms, it originated as a human colony that has been isolated from the rest of humanity since the Age of Strife. Since then the Corvantines carved out their own small civilization within their enclave and have been fighting off attacks from Chaos and various criminal elements for millennia, creating a formidable navy while becoming a regional economic powerhouse.

abstract
  • The Corvantine Empire is a feudalistic absolute monarchy that exists in the lawless Caligari Sector of Segmentum Tempestus. Located in the sector plagued by small Warp Storms, it originated as a human colony that has been isolated from the rest of humanity since the Age of Strife. Since then the Corvantines carved out their own small civilization within their enclave and have been fighting off attacks from Chaos and various criminal elements for millennia, creating a formidable navy while becoming a regional economic powerhouse. Corvantine society is dominated by an emperor and the aristocracy, with the majority of the population being peasants. That is not to say the Corvantines are technologically backward. Most of their tech originated with what they brought with them when the first planet was colonized many millennia ago. Since then much of it has been degraded into a more simple form, like in the rest of the galaxy, but it is still considered to be advanced compared to its neighbors. Military service is seen as very prestigious due to the constant threat posed by various factions within the Caligari Sector and most technological development is in that sphere, causing problems in others. The existence of the Corvantine Empire is thus tolerated by the Imperium, as it has little control over the sector anyway and sees this enclave of civilization as a tool for further establishing order there. The state provides a place where vessels from the Imperium can resupply and receive assistance in their operations. This was a pragmatic decision made by a past leader of Tempestus Segmentum Command, and since then no one has seen any reason to renege on the deal. The Imperium keeps a high commissioner in residence on Corvantis, the capital, who represents the Segmentum Command's interests there. In exchange the Imperium occasionally provides the Corvantines with supplies and technology. However, the Corvantine emperors understand that if the sector falls under total Imperial control, their independence will probably no longer be tolerated. Thus they do not provide the Imperium with too much assistance, just enough to keep them satisfied.
