Editing Ultramar (section)

==Current State==
After his return from the Indomitus Crusade, Gullliman engaged in a series of reforms. He declared that the return to the 500 worlds would now be formalized now that he had returned to fully enforce the reformation. He also announced a great buildup in military forces to protect the expanded Ultramar. 8 new purely Primaris Marine Chapters, all Ultramarine successors would be founded in Ultramar. He therefore pledged 10 full chapters (including the Ultramarines and the Scythes of the Emperor) to defend his star empire at all times in the future. 10,000 Space Marines, of which more than 8000 were Primaris Marines, would now be Ultramar's permanent defense force, as well as the main force for future expansion of Ultramar's borders. Which looks suspiciously like a small legion in all but name, especially as they all ultimately fall under the authority of Calgar who has authority over the 4 Tetrarchs and Ultramar as a whole. Which is all kinds of hypocritical but also leaves BL and codex writers the chance to have particularly fuck huge battles against the Tyranids, Tau, Necrons and the like near Ultramar in any fluff they write. Which is likely the reason it's happened.

Ultramar is currently divided into five sectors (North, South, East, West and Center). Four of these sectors is ruled by a Tetrarch appointed by Guilliman himself. Every sector has a capital world where the Tetrarch resides, although each world considers itself under the rule of Maccrage.

*The Northern Sector is based around the Forge World of Konor. Its Tetrarch is [[Severus Agemman]], First Captain of the Ultramarines.
*The Southern Sector is based around the world of Andermung. Its Tetrarch is Second Captain Portan of the [[Genesis Chapter]].
*The Western Sector is based around the world of Protos. Its Tetrarch is Captain Balthus of the [[Doom Eagles]].
*The Eastern Sector is based around the world of Vespator. It had been previously ruled by a political entity known as the Sotharan league, but since Sotha was destroyed by [[Hive Fleet Kraken]] Guilliman re-constituted what was left of the league around Vespator. Its Tetrarch is Decimus Felix, a Primaris Ultramarine recently promoted to Eleventh Captain of the Ultramarines and Equerry to Roboute Guilliman.
*The Central Sector falls under the direct rule of Macragge and its regent, Marneus Calgar. It encompasses all systems in the heart of Ultramar with the exception of Konor, Veridia and Espandor, which fall under the remit of the Northern Tetrarch.

The combined damage the Death Guard had caused forced over a billion of Ultramar's inhabitants to become refugees. Guilliman has since asked more than a hundred [[Rogue Trader]]s for their help in charting the new Warp routes exposed by the Great Rift in the hope that there may be uncorrupted worlds that can be settled there.
