Imperial Charter?

[MasterGwydion]

What is an Imperial Charter? Is it required for colonization within the Imperium? on the borders of the Imperium? I found this little blurb and it is difficult to reconcile with other material written about the Third Imperium.


Do other Imperial Worlds not have an Imperial Charter and therefore cannot govern themselves?

What’s the source volume? There’s one author I tend to heavily discount.

Edit: Wait that’s TGR by MJD. Funnily enough…

Presumably it's the Warrant of Restoration, the basis of the Imperial constitution, that is referred to:

Article I - Imperial Governance, Membership, Citizenship​

The Imperium shall exercise no direct governance over any member world. Instead, the purpose of the Imperium shall be to provide for the Defense of all of the member worlds as a group, and to bring the Rule of Law to the spaces between worlds. No interference with local law or custom is contemplated, except where such local law or custom is in conflict with Imperial Law.
