Imperial Navy (The Fleet) - Emerging from the Jardin Wars, the Imperial Navy (and its twin the Army) is the permanent standing military arm of the Empire, which must never be confused with the Phoenix's Starforce or the Imperial Guard, in practice principally concerned with the Red/Blue Line. Its massive bureaucracy negotiates with the estates-general, whose consent is essential for the various corvees and levies necessary to maintain its authorized strength. Ostensibly apolitical it is one of the most powerful interests groups of the Empire, itself equal to any of the major houses.
