  Imperium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The number of lictors in attendance upon a magistrate was an overt indication of the degree of imperium.
Imperium maius later became a hallmark of the Roman Emperor.
Another techical use of the term in Roman law was for the power to extend the law, beyond its mere interpretation, extending imperium from formal legislators (under the ever-republican constitution: popular assemblies, senate, magistrates, emperor and their delegates) to the jurisprudence of jurisconsults.

 Imperium (board game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Imperium is a science fiction board wargame that was published in 1977 by the Conflict Game Company and GDW.
It included a cardboard-mounted, folding map of a local region of the Milky Way galaxy, a set of rules and charts, and the 352 counters representing the various spacecraft, ground units, and markers, and a six-sided dice.
This setting is the conflict between Earth the First Imperium in the history of the Traveller Universe from the Traveller role-playing game.

 Imperium
By its own account, "Imperium" is "part of a life of action" and "only in form a book at all," so that reading it is more than a merely mental event.
"Imperium" is a reprise of history and political theory, designed to show why the outcomes of the world wars of the first half of the 20th century were only temporary setbacks toward the ultimate goal.
A more recent book that "Imperium" brings to mind is Patrick J. Buchanan's "A Republic, Not an Empire." That work restates the old "America First" argument that America had no business in either world war, a position Yockey shares.

 Imperium (Warhammer 40,000)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Imperium itself, keeping with the dystopian themes of Warhammer 40K is a highly oppressive techno- theocracy, (akin to that in the Empire of the Fading Suns), with extreme persecution of those questioning the morality or validity of the endless conflicts and divine rule of the Emperor.
The Imperium has an Inquisition, carries out crusades and uses Latin extensively, and so may it be an indirect criticism of historical episodes in the Catholic church.
The Imperium is also highly xenophobic and can barely comprehend serious dialogue with any alien species - even clearly civilised ones like the Eldar (elf-like and cultured) and Tau (peaceful utilitarians) - highlighting the common human potential for hatred and savagery.

 Imperium - Wikipedia
Ein Promagistrat hatte das Imperium ebenso inne wie der Amtsinhaber selbst (zum Beispiel der Prokonsul gegenüber dem Konsul) und wurde daher von der gleichen Anzahl Liktoren begleitet.
Das imperium proconsulare wurde unter Augustus von der Ausübung des tatsächlichen Amtes getrennt; Augustus und die folgenden Kaiser verwalteten die ihnen zustehenden „kaiserlichen“ Provinzen, nicht direkt, sondern über legati Augusti pro praetore; sie blieben aber Oberbefehlshaber der in den Provinzen stationierten Truppen.
Ein ähnliches Imperium maius wurde später ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Amtsgewalt der römischen Kaiser und gab ihnen die Möglichkeit, auch in den Provinzen einzugreifen, die formell dem Senat unterstanden (senatorische Provinzen).

Imperium rejects the Nineteenth Century: the parched fossils of its thought— Marx, Freud and the scientific-technical world outlook; its exhausted political nostrums— the pluralistic state, liberalism, democracy, communism, internationalism; all of which fail to satisfy the organically vital realities of politics.
Imperium is probably the first book to advocate European unification— to dogmatically predict it— in terms other than the crassly materialistic.
Imperium is the creation of a man who believed in his Destiny— and in this book— so thoroughly that he became a martyr to it.

 AVault | PC | Imperium Galactica Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Strangely enough, the opening movie of Imperium Galactica is perfectly analogous to the game itself; both are long, have stale voice acting and cheesy full-motion video sequences, but ultimately end up being engaging and fun to experience.
Imperium Galactica is actually not the type of space strategy game that fans of that genre have come to expect.
There is a definite, narrative story, and dozens of cutscenes that help to progress the action as you grow in rank and gain more control of the fragile human empire.

Imperium Galactica II: Alliances is the sequel to Imperium Galactica, a universe conquering real-time strategy game similar to the Master of Orion series.
Imperium Galactica II is at best an average space conquest game and at worst a buggy and passionless disappointment.
Combat in Imperium Galactica II advances to feature 3D ships but while you can rotate and zoom the view the combat itself is still very two-dimensional.

 Imperium
However, for the sake of variety, it is possible to play abhumans in an Imperial setting, but players of abhuman PCs should be aware that their character will be subjected to scorn, disgust, and possibly even violence from the bigoted majority that makes up the population of most Imperial planets.
Military careers are those related to serving the Imperium in a military sense, whether as a common rank-and-file soldier, an Imperial agent of some kind, a templar of the Adeptus Sororitas or even one of the legendary supermen of the Adeptus Astartes.
The Imperium is expert at both strategies, tailoring planetary political systems to suit the cultures they apply to.

 Introduction to IMPERIUM, by Professor Revilo P. Oliver   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Imperium throughout is -- again as the author says -- not a book in the sense that it presents argument.
Imperium, after conquering all attempts to suppress it and destroy it -- as have all constructive advances in the past of man -- is seen as the only foundation which can be used to overthrow the inner enemies, re-conquer the Soul of the West and pave the way to the future.
In one respect, Imperium is akin to Das Kapital, for Karl Marx gave to the conspiratorial Culture Distorter the necessary ideological mask to hide its mission of ruthless, total destruction.

 Steve Jackson Games Forums - How "dark" or "Light" is the (your?) 3rd IMPERIUM??
The Imperium is as good as it can be, as evil as it must be, as strong as it has to be, and as weak as it can afford to be.
The Imperium is distant, the Imperium doesn't figure in everyday life, and the Imperium is not on everyone's lips.
Still other areas of the Imperium were explored, the Capital was a place of strength and power and in the Core adventures tended to be short unless one was exceedingly careful, lucky or skilled.

 Amazon.com: Imperium: Books: F. Yockey   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
This is the "Imperium" of which Yockey writes, a united right-wing European-American Empire dedicated to white supremacy and the destruction of democracy, egalitarianism, humanism and communism.
Throughout _Imperium_ there is a constant frustration with America (Yockey was an American soldier in Germany at the end of WWII and _Imperium_ was written in 1948) and its treament of Germany and its brutal civilians both during and after the war.
Imperium is just what the very first line of the book says it is, "This book is not like other books." Well, after reading it, I have to agree, it isn't like other books at all.

 AVault | PC | Imperium Galactica II: Alliances Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
These questions have been repeatedly answered within video games, which have long since postulated that the galaxy is rife with alien factions who actively seek to slaughter each other, and us, should we stick our nose in their territory.
Imperium Galactica II is one such title, pitting a variety of foreign races against one another in the eternal struggle for intergalactic supremacy.
As it attempts to be something new and different, Imperium Galactica II refuses to possess a single storyline through which the player will struggle.

A perfect pyramid class structure is headed by an all-powerful leader, making this system unbreakable and impossible to overthrow.
By going through the correct procedures, one may move up in class rank, but the difference in power between the classes is so great that the desire to advance is the greatest motivator in the development of imperium society.
An imperium society is very flexible and accommodating, but at the same time, the entire society moves under the direction of the leader, making imperium society an interesting hybrid of classism and personalism.

The Imperium MobileLink is not a replacement for the Imperium 200H, but instead is a powerful means of controlling the Imperium 200H from a distance.
It uses the same ECU interface as the Imperium 200H: the same dual-switch input, the same commands and menu structure, the same visual and verbal feedback.
