The Imperial Tithe, also called the Grand Harvesting, Great Tithe, or Terra's Due, refers to the amount of materials an Imperial world must supply to the Administratum.
帝国什一税,也称为大收割、大什一税或泰拉应得,是指帝国世界必须向内务部供应的材料数量。
Two types of tithes are demanded of Imperial worlds. The first is a military tithe requiring 1/10th of a planet's PDF being gathered as new recruits for the Imperial Guard. The second, known as Exacta, includes all other types of resources or wealth. Collection of the first type of tithe is overseen by the Departmento Munitorum while collection of the second is overseen by the Departmento Exacta. Tithes are physically collected by Administratum authorities, successors of the Crusade-era Eaxectors, which periodically arrive on the subject world. The frequency of visits varies world to world, but in at least one case the Departmento Munitorum visited a planet nine times in a year, demanding new Imperial Guard conscripts each time.
帝国世界需要两种类型的什一税。第一个是军事什一税,要求收集一颗行星PDF的十分之一作为帝国卫队的新兵。第二种被称为强征税,包括所有其他类型的资源或财富。第一类什一税的征收由军务部监督,而第二类什一税的征收由计校部监督。什一税由远征时代强征者的继任者内务部实际收集,他们定期抵达目标世界。访问的频率因世界而异,但至少有一次,军务部在一年内访问了一个行星九次,每次都要求新的帝国卫队应征入伍。
The size of the tithe depends on the type of world to which it is applied. A tithe can be any form of material: food, weapons, minerals, people, etc. Despite the number of agencies tracking tithes, the sheer size of the Imperium and the difficulty of Warp travel makes the time-consuming process of tithe collection excessively confusing and inefficient.
什一税的大小取决于它所适用的世界类型。什一税可以是任何形式的物质:食物、武器、矿产、人口等。尽管有许多机构追踪什一税,但帝国的庞大规模和亚空间航行的困难使得耗时的什一税收集过程过于混乱和低效。
It is the duty of Planetary Governors to ensure the tithe of their world is paid, and any world that fails to pay its tithe meets with vicious reprisal from the Adeptus Terra. At the slightest breach of protocol, Imperial officials will often order the Adeptus Arbites to immediately execute the Governor. However, as long as the planetary ruler dutifully pays his world's tithe, he may rule the planet in almost any way he sees fit.
行星总督有责任确保他们世界的什一税得到支付,任何不支付什一税的世界都会遭到中央政务部的残酷报复。只要有丝毫违反协议的行为,帝国官员通常会命令法务部立即处决总督。然而,只要行星统治者尽职尽责地支付世界的什一税,他几乎可以以任何他认为合适的方式统治行星。
Space Marine homeworlds, planets belonging to the Ecclesiarchy, Knight Worlds and Forge Worlds of the Adeptus Mechanicus are not usually subject to Imperial tithes, and are given the tithe grade Aptus Non, though Space Marines must provide a separate tithe in Gene-Seed to the Administratum. Certain worlds which supply large amounts of psykers to the Black Ships of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica are also known to be exempt from the standard tithe.
星际战士的家园世界、属于国教的行星、骑士世界和机械神教的铸造世界通常不受帝国什一税的约束,并被授予特级免税的什一税等级,尽管星际战士必须向内务部提供单独的基因种子什一税。某些向星语庭的黑船提供大量灵能者的世界也被认为不受标准什一税的约束。
However, even worlds exempt from the Imperial tithe are not always exempt from scrutiny or collections. The Sisters of Silence are known to gather blanks from worlds normally immune to the demands of the tithe.
然而,即使是免于帝国什一税的世界,也并不总是免于审查或征收。众所周知,寂静修女从通常不受什一税要求影响的世界中收集空白者。
The Tithe Grade below are generally applied to worlds depending on their World's Classification. However, the Tithe Grade assigned to a world by the Adeptus Administratum can vary depending on a variety of other factors, such as whether a world aided the Imperium during the Horus Heresy.
下面的什一税等级通常适用于世界,具体取决于它们的世界分类。然而,内务部为一个世界分配的什一税等级可能因各种其他因素而异,例如一个世界是否在荷鲁斯叛乱期间帮助了帝国。
