===Tau Empire===
{{main|Gue'vesa Auxiliaries}}
Less xenophobic than the Imperium, the [[Tau]] Empire has no qualms in letting other races join it. Whilst few in number, some humans have done so and exist within the Empire where they are known as [[Gue'vesa Auxiliaries|Gue'vesa]].{{Fn|1}}. These humans for the most part are descendants of [[Imperial Guard]] troops who were abandoned in Tau space during the [[Damocles Crusade]], however it is not unheard of for Imperial planets to want to secede from the Imperium to join the Tau Empire.{{Fn|2}}.
===Independent Civilisations===
====Pirates====
*{{Main|Pirate}}
The only independent civilisation with any real sustainability, some humans evade the Imperium's clutches and live outside of its reach in bands of ships existing through raids and piracy. Often allying themselves with [[Eldar]] or other Xenos, these humans are swiftly put down if they are caught by Imperial authorities.{{Fn|3}}.
