The Council of Terra was an Imperial institution created in early M31 and lasting until [[Roboute Guilliman]] reformed the Imperium.
Created by the Emperor shortly after the [[Ullanor CampaignCrusade]], the Council was created as the governing body of the Imperium whilst the Emperor worked in the vaults of his palace: to attend to matters of state and would aim to create and uphold Imperial Law throughout the newly conquered Imperium, including the controversial Imperial Tithe.
It was superseded by the [[High Lords of Terra|Council of High Lords]] after the [[Horus Heresy]].
