==Overview==
The first Founding from [[Hyrkan]] raised six infantry regiments for the Imperial Guard, a total of six thousand men.{{Fn|1a}} These proved effective enough to justify further recruitment from Hyrkan afterwards.{{Fn|3}}
The chief political officer provided for all six regiments at their Founding was [[Commissar-General]] [[Delane Oktar]], whose progressive command and discipline style was based around principles of unity, honour, and the value of the individual [[Guardsman]]. Oktar's martial philosophy was drilled into the Hyrkan officers and at least one [[Cadet-Commissar]], [[Ibram Gaunt]], who came under his purview.{{Fn|1a}}
