In the grim darkness of the far future, there are still taxes.
Only now taxes are tithes.
Well it it grim dark.
Three constants in life. Death, taxes and greenskin hordes.
@@josephmoffatt4696 A tithe is just a 10% tax.

Original video got taken down so fast I thought the Inquisition got to you.
If that day ever arrives he knows some of us will risk it all to attempt rescuing him from the wrath of the god-emperor's minions.
Nah, it was just time acting a bit odd due to the currents of the Warp.

@@jesseberg3271 Yep. The warp did it.
VIVA LA REVOLUTION
Your oratory is phenomenal. Truly. Your work is exemplary in all ways - production, content, scripting, but your delivery is the cream of the crop. It’s so rich and layered and well-paced that I refuse to believe that you don’t have a professional background.
You have my sincere thanks for supplying this fandom with such stellar content.
From now on I'm saying that Professionals have Oculus Imperia background :)
Oculus is to the 40k lore community what Astartes is to its fanfilm community.
Next video: High Lords of Terra, Tactics and Structure.
If they need to kill something, they just make being alive illegal for that thing. If it’s a human or Astartes they make breathing illegal for that person.
Tactics: Minotaurs, Assasins, Genocide
Is it alive yes should it be no send the guard. Is it still alive yes send more. Is it still still alive yes send the astartes....Is it still still still alive yes...blow up the planet.
The warp has delivered your backup to your much anticipated transmission. May the currents of the immaterium speed along further efforts.
Finally doing something helpful for once
Slightly surprised at such a positive exam of the highlords. Ur disdain for the ecclesiarchy is well known, historitor.
I appreciate the attempt to be unbiased.
I want to sleep on a cloud made of Oculus Imperia's voice.
I am
Going to sleep with this, sleepy time Warhammer lore is Oculus edge.
Thank you for your work. I wish I had the means to support your efforts. It is valued 😊
Clicks, likes, comments, shares, even just telling your friends, all of that is support too, and deeply appreciated for it!
Now with extra *redacted*
Your *redacted* is very *redacted* you my friend can hold this fat *redacted* and anyone who dont like it can go *redacted* themselves!
This comment is very *redacted*
I know, intellectually, that it can't be the case, but I can't shake the impression that the Lord Commander's eye apparatus has a spigot.
*scrolls up* OH FOR GODS SAKE. Now I can't NOT see it.
@@butHomeisNowhere___ RIGHT?
Gotta keep dem eyes hydrated!
This is a great video but, I must confess, I cant help but imagine the old farts in if the emperor had a text to speak device when talking about the high Council of Terra. Nonetheless a great video as always, keep up the good work.
I AM THE LAWN
Banana pulp is excellent for lubricating cogwheels.
"Taxation for the sake of furthering society's goals is older than the cogitators they pen their works upon. To suggest otherwise... is childish ignorance at best."
-Our boi is coming down hard on the Libertarians here.
Message from the Emperor: PAY YOUR FRICKING TAXES
My Oculus... You scared for a second... I thought the Inquisition came and killed you.
Oh please tell me you have another spiffing name you go by ? That would be just to good...
@@darthgorthaur258 Spiffing Brit does watch these, but he comments under his own (checkmarked and verified) youtube channel name. This is an imposter.
@@MrVlogman101 He'd have to pretend to be someone else to be an imposter, this is just a dude.
@@darthgorthaur258 No but I really love his videos
@@MrVlogman101 not an impostor but a big fan
Extremely excited to see a collaboration between you, Baldermort, Valrak, Border Prince, et al. Ave Imperator, Historitor.
I like the idea that the most destructive conflict in Warhammer history started because half the galaxy didn't want to pay taxes. This is now my new canon
It's realistic too
Another brilliant transmission, Oculus. Loved your role in Baldermort's latest video too!
I love listening to your telling of the lore of one of my favorite universes! And I have never even played the game 😃
Your playing the game already
This video sums up a great number of reasons why I wouldn't want to become a politician
Just, another spectacularly well done transmission. Well researched and conveyed. The perfect addition to a perfect collection.
-Ave Imperator
The Primarchs: We don't care about anything but war.
Also the Prumarchs: We are upset that a civilian government is being put in place to administer the Empire.
Lion, Horus, Guilliman, Vulkan, Corax, Lorgar, Fulgrim, at least, cared about governing.
@@atsukunisumeragi1967 Ruling and having everyone boot lick you isn't the same as being interested in administration.
@@kyle857 I think Guilliman, commander boring, at least cared about administration
Oculus, if I may:
Your records have spurred me into pursuing acedemia and scholarly fields within our most blessed imperium. I am all to aware you are not the man to speak too, but you are the only member of the Oculotus I am aware of. With your organizations blessing, the blessing of the Lord Regent and He Who Dwells on the Golden Throne, I endeavor to seek the truth with you.
Sincerely,
Alphons Gratus,
Entry Level Administratum Assistant
Segmentum Solar, Luna, Hab-Block 223254
Ave, Imperitor. Gloria in Excelcus Tera!
Now in stereo, very nice :)
Indeed! DEFINITELY NOT OCULUS' FIRST NEW MICROPHONE MISTAKE.
@@OculusImperia Really liked the video by the way! This is one of the subjects that I have been wondering about ever since I got into Warhammer.
Isn’t it curious how the historitor, who depends on tax money to fund his existence, is so ardently in favor of taxation? 🤔
Hurrah! Good to hear from you again Oculus!
This was an awesome video! Also I loved your role in the Baldermort crossover, you did a really good job. I hope you too do more crossovers with Baldermort down the road!
“...what does it mean...to lead?”
*High-gothic choir starts humming ‘Moon Men’*
You know it's not until this video did I notice something, theres a lot of fur on all this armour. I'm guessing that it's a status thing but, the last thing I would think to myself would be, "man, I've got armour that can stop tank rounds... ima slap a boar skin right on this thing!"
*Power always corrupt, absolute power, corrupts absolute*
*Expect The Emperor*
Close to 85k following! Spread the word of the emperor! Let's get this channel the status it deserves. March onwards to 100k bothers and sisters !
I... sweet Moses, you spoil us too much.
(Now time to listen a treatment on what I've always found to be the most downright terrifying aspect of 40k; The utterly Lovecraftian bureacratic nightmare that is the IoM's administration).
So now the BOOT is out of stasis . Is he super pissed about the whole god emperor thing 😂
Your speech at the end was impressive, but I can’t help but notice similarities to those expressed by the Primarks when the body was created.
Doubly so about knowing the nature of the enemy, but never having fought in the trenches.
I AM THE LAW
*LAWN
Eh who was I again? I don't remember...
@TomeOfBattle Oh yeah. I AM THE LAWN
This is a total disappointment.
I'm not hearing any talk of laxatives, bananas, or even clown goblins!
And why is the Grand Provost Martial not wearing his helmet? Some kind of weird, photoshopped, non-canon version of him there.
Ironscythe Heretik! To the eye of terror with ye!
"SHUT UP LITTLE BILLY!"
Weren’t they banned from making new laws by Rogal on behalf of the Emperor?
I'M THE LAW!
"Fuck you, Magnus!".
You made a great point at the end. The high lords are the most capable humans there or for all the good or bad thy bring the high lords are simply the best of humanity.
NB: The Adepta Psoriatas are a sub-clade of the Adeptus Biologis, itself subservient to the Omnissiah's Holy Adeptus Mechanicus on Mars. No member of the Psoriatas has ever held the title of High Lord.
Your voice is so soothing. You could be reading heretical scriptures and it could calm an entire ship of inquisitiors.
So glad to see you back. You produce the finest 40K videos.
Aight guys start spamming quotes of the High Lords of Terra from tts
Praise the Omnisiah for I received your latest feed oh great Historian!
>decillions
The Imperium has 4 quadrillion humans in its population as a conservative estimate, though with numbers this big the meaning for most people tends to break down.
you should do Ultramarines legion history
4 decade average LIFESPAN...Damn, didn’t know life was that bad.😔
Without Krieg it would had probably been 60 or so.
Ave Imperator! Gloria in excelsis Terra!
my youtube feed is POPPING OFF, this is incredible.
Leadership can always be summed up by a person hold a club in one hand and a carrot in the other.
Oh man this channel is so high quality, time to watch everything.
Excellent codification. Ave Imperator.
Wow I never saw this before....a reading of the High Lords of Terra that has a spec of sympathy for them
I hope you cover main Imperial history. A great deal of what was discussed here does not make sense without it.
Welcome back. Love from Belfast 🇬🇧
So many books to file away in the dusty maze like libraries on terra for the Administratum to categories.
Is the hollow mounting, Everest?
It's heavily implied.
@@OculusImperia i thought so
How can you dislike this?
Hope part 2 comes out at some point
It's like you're begging for The Inquisition to take you...
The important question is: How often do they talk about their bowel movements?
Excellent as always.
They also sometimes play tabletop rp games with the red nerd and big e
+1 love for this video !
Temporary headhonchos of the Imperiam until Guilimen returned.
Stay strong, and never compromise, @buttstuffkaiju.
"liked" at 0.00.
One of the best lore channels!
Should we outlaw the use of laxatives?
The Astartes have no representative? Interesting.
I was going to take a nap before my night shift. It can wait. :)
That would be an ecunumical matter
Now then
5:44 my boy decius the XXIII?
Well done Chronicler, as usual:)
Another great video as always
Hope you got your Inquisition buddies to sign off on this report before you published it...
Might perchance this Rememberance over more topics related to the Mechanicus?
Amazing video as always
Pretty big responsibility to uphold
A very extremely awesome video as always Oculus Imperia.
My lord high chronicler,
I have wondered in my studies of your work if the esteemed oculus has ever witnessed an imperial action? A world brought into compliance? An astartes boarding operation upon an enemy ship?? A deployment of a particular ship in the imperial navy?? Hell a run in with an arbites would suffice!!🤣
Just get better & better.Lockdown therapy at it's finest!
Yes!
Thanks for the vid sir.👍🏼👍🏼
"I seem to emit currents of air right before I have to _poo..."_
16:36 comment lol if you too realised that this "Terran noble" most likely has family in the Adeptus Custodes.
Fantastic!
Thank you for the perspective, Remembrancer. I’ve always only thought of the High Lords as the selfish idiots in power right now.... umm... I mean during the War if the Beast.
I swear Roboute Guliman stole command from Rogal Dorn! That should of never happened!!
🤩 great vid
😭 oh gods... They are the best of humanity. 🥺 Could someone point me in the direction of the closest heretic recruiting office?
[Points toward what is actually the Commissar Convention] “It’s actually right over there!”
I think its just behind the dude with the big "I" on his shirt and the even bigger gun in his hand...ask him I'm sure he can lead you the rest of the way...
Do you see those Astartes in the edgy black armor? Yeah, those ones with the black crosses on the pauldrons. They're totally just undercover Chaos Space Marines recruiters. Trust me ;)
Just travel the warp without the galafields activated you'll soon find it
Once uploaded a music video to my course with no sound. Opps.
Inquisition is fucking with you
How do they play in the table top?
So, question, regarding the idea that the Council of Terra would consist of people who had "Never held a lasgun", why?
Normally, when trying to transition from conquest to rule, major posts would be handed out by a conquer to his Generals. Why wouldn't the Emperor staff his new government with former senior members of the Auxilia and Armada? They're the ones he would have encountered and seen in action.
Because said people were already serving on the War Council, or as planetary/sector governors, in this case.
@@OculusImperia fair enough. BTW, was that quip about taxation targeted at us Yanks? :D
Long live the Imperial Senate!
Dark Angels plz
I watched the original video (also first)
They apparently also enjoy tabletop roleplay.
11:22 Leman Russ of the *5th* Legion? What kind pf historian are you?!
You keep saying there's links to your Discord in the description of your videos. But I still haven't seen one.. Great video though.
