| − | '''Tithe Grade''', also named the '''Grand Harvesting''' or '''Terra's Due'''{{Fn|2}}, refers to the amount of materials an Imperial world must supply to the [[Administratum]]. The size of the tithe depends on the type of world to which it is applied. A tithe can be any form of material: food, weapons, minerals, people, et cetera. Despite the number of agencies tracking tithes, due to the sheer size of the Imperium and the difficulty of [[Warp]] travel makes the time-consuming process of tithe collection riddled with confusion and inefficiency.{{Fn|2}} One of the most common forms of tithe is by providing one tenth of their [[PDF]] troops to serve in the [[Imperial Guard]].{{Fn|4}}

| − | It is the duty of [[Planetary Governor]]s to ensure the tithe of their world is paid, and any world that fails to pay its tithe meets with vicious reprisal from the [[Adeptus Terra]]. At the slightest breach of protocol, Imperial officials will often order the [[Adeptus Arbites]] to immediately execute the Governor. However, as long as the planetary ruler dutifully pays his world's tithe, he may rule the planet in almost any way he sees fit.{{Fn|2}}
