	The Imperial Guard (for better or worse) have taken it upon themselves to use the Kanakian's military service as a means to an end of civilising them, hoping that they will take back the more boring and "civilised" approach that such a duty entails back to their home planet, which is kind of a bit like "The Flintstones", but with more inter-tribal warfare and rape. As bad as ~~Commissars~~ have it with the Catachans, they have to whip actual savages into line when they are assigned to Kanakian regiments.
