Changes

The leader of an [[Imperial]] world is known as a A '''Planetary Governor''' , also known as an '''Imperial Commander''', an individual is a figure with the (often hereditary) authority to rule a world in the [[Emperor]]'s name. They are the chief oversees of [[Imperial]] worlds.

Naturally, since the vast and dispersed nature of Imperial territory would make a totally centralised centralized system of government unfeasible, the Planetary Governor is given discretionary control over the administration (including governance, defence and development) of the planet in question. In theory he (or she) is duty-bound to the [[Adeptus Terra]]. Essentially though, he is an independent governor. As long as the planet's [[tithes]], [[mutant]] and [[psyker]] "head counts" are kept under control and the planet is governed competently, he is free to run the planet however he chooses.
