Tau Septs are managed by an '''[[Elemental Council]]'''. This includes representatives from the five Tau [[Caste]]s ([[Ethereal]], [[Fire Caste|Fire]], [[Air Caste|Air]], [[Water Caste|Water]], and [[Earth Caste|Earth]]) as well as a 6th observer seat that goes to a prominent member of an [[Tau Auxiliaries|Auxiliary race]] for an "outside perspective". However final word on the Council ultimately goes to the Ethereal representative.{{Fn|22}}

During the [[First Sphere of Expansion]], the homeworlds and colonies of the [[Kroot]] and the [[Vespid]] were also incorporated into the Tau empire. Notice that these star [[system]]s are not considered septs. In addition, there are an unknown number of former [[Imperial]] worlds in the [[T'au Empire]], such as [[T'ros]]. Some or all of which might still have a [[Human]] population.
