Ultramar
From Lexicanum
Ultramar is the realm of the Ultramarines, and part of the greater Imperium.
Unlike most Space Marine Chapters, the Ultramarines do not rule over a single world, asteroid, or fortress-monastery, but an entire region of space. Located in the Eastern Fringe Ultramar consists of several worlds that the Ultramarines recruit from and protect. Each world is self-sufficient, a remarkable achievement in the Imperium, and a testament to the skill and vision of the Ultramarines' Primarch Roboute Guilliman. As the worlds of Ultramar are under the direct control of a Space Marine Chapter they do not pay tithes to the Imperium, instead they contribute directly to the upkeep of the Ultramarines. Of course, the worlds of Ultramar also maintain their own PDF regiments and, due to the Ultramarines efficient rule, also maintain several hundred regiments ready to join the Imperial Guard when needed.
Ultramar consists of at least eight systems of worlds. Macragge is the capital of Ultramar as a whole:
- Macragge
- Calth
- Espandor (destroyed)
- Iax
- Parmenio
- Prandium (destroyed)
- Talassar
- The Three Planets (Masali, Quintarn and Tarentus)
- Konor
- Circe
