Overview:
The Imperium is the galactic empire under which the vast majority of humanity is united. The ruler of the Imperium is the Emperor, the most powerful Human force user to date, who has led the Imperium since its very beginning.
The Imperium was founded by the Emperor at the end of the Age of Strife - a very long period of anarchy, war, and destructive regression which almost completely reversed thousands of years of mankind's progression made during the Dark Age of Technology. Also, during this time, many of the colonies founded by man were lost to the records.
After the Age of Strife the Emperor united Terra and from their he built a vast military and pushed out into the stars on a Great Crusade to unite all of Humanity.
