A Better Imperium? Part 1

What if, immediately after the Horus Heresy, the Imperium was taken control by the High Lords under the High Lord who was appointed by the Emperor himself as Lord-Regent. This High Lord would be as intelligent, or even more intelligent than the Emperor himself, what could he do to revive the broken Imperium?

If the Imperium had been taken control by a highly intelligent and capable Lord-Regent appointed by the Emperor immediately after the Horus Heresy, there are several ways in which he could have gone about reviving the broken Imperium.

Firstly, he would need to address the immediate aftermath of the Horus Heresy. This would involve purging the traitorous elements from the Imperial military and government, as well as rebuilding the devastated worlds and territories that had been affected by the war. He would need to implement a comprehensive plan to restore order and stability to the Imperium.

Secondly, he would need to address the underlying issues that had led to the Horus Heresy in the first place. This would require a thorough investigation into the causes of the Heresy, as well as an assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the Imperium as a whole. He would need to identify and address the structural, ideological, and cultural issues that had contributed to the Heresy, and implement reforms to ensure that they did not happen again.

Thirdly, he would need to address the social and economic issues that had plagued the Imperium for centuries. This would involve addressing the poverty, inequality, and social unrest that existed in many parts of the Imperium, as well as implementing policies to promote economic growth and development.

Fourthly, he would need to address the spiritual and ideological issues that had divided the Imperium. This would require a concerted effort to promote unity and tolerance between different factions and ideologies, and to rebuild the faith of the Imperial citizens in the Emperor and the Imperium.

Overall, the Lord-Regent would need to implement a comprehensive and far-reaching plan to address the many issues that had plagued the Imperium for centuries, and to rebuild it from the ground up. This would require a combination of political, economic, social, and spiritual reforms, as well as a strong and capable leadership that was dedicated to the well-being of the Imperium and its citizens.

Let's say that he is successful in such endeavors and even has the total support of the remaining loyal Primarchs

If the Lord-Regent was successful in reviving the broken Imperium and had the total support of the remaining loyal Primarchs, then he would be in a strong position to enact significant reforms and make sweeping changes to the Imperium.

With the support of the loyal Primarchs, the Lord-Regent would have a powerful tool at his disposal for implementing change. The Primarchs were some of the most powerful and influential figures in the Imperium, and their support would give the Lord-Regent a great deal of legitimacy and influence.

Together, the Lord-Regent and the loyal Primarchs could work to implement the reforms needed to address the underlying issues that had contributed to the Horus Heresy and to strengthen the Imperium. They could work to promote unity and stability, to address social and economic issues, and to rebuild the faith of the Imperial citizens in the Emperor and the Imperium.

One potential area of focus for the Lord-Regent and the loyal Primarchs could be the Space Marines. The Space Marines had played a pivotal role in the Horus Heresy, and their loyalty was key to the survival of the Imperium. The Lord-Regent and the loyal Primarchs could work to strengthen the bonds between the Space Marines and the Imperium, and to ensure that the Space Marines remained a loyal and dedicated force for the Imperium.

Another area of focus could be the Adeptus Mechanicus. The Adeptus Mechanicus had long been a powerful and influential force within the Imperium, and their technological expertise had been key to the Imperium's survival. However, the Adeptus Mechanicus had also been a source of division and tension within the Imperium. The Lord-Regent and the loyal Primarchs could work to promote unity and cooperation between the Adeptus Mechanicus and the rest of the Imperium, and to ensure that their technological expertise was used for the benefit of the Imperium as a whole.
