Overview
Each Segmentum has its own Imperial Navy and Merchant Fleets, as well as a Segmentum Fortress or Segmentum Naval Base that forms the base of fleet operations within the Segmentum. The Segmentum fleet commanders are known as the Lord High Admirals.[1] The Segmentum Fortress is controlled directly by a high-ranking official of the Administratum known as the Master of the Segmentum.[1]
Although intended for purposes of fleet administration and shipping controls, the Segmentae have evolved into administrative divisions of the Adeptus Terra.[1]
The Segmentae Majoris and their fortresses are:
Segmentum | Zone | Base |
Segmentum Solar | Centre | Mars |
Segmentum Obscurus | North | Cypra Mundi |
Segmentum Pacificus | West | Hydraphur |
Ultima Segmentum | East | Kar Duniash |
Segmentum Tempestus | South | Bakka |
