Imperial Military Cabinet

The Imperial Military Cabinet, officially the Military Cabinet of His Imperial Majesty the Emperor, was a military institution of the Galactic Empire that was under the direct command of His Imperial Majesty, the Emperor, and was responsible for handling personnel and administrative matters in the Imperial Army. It was formed during the military reforms of the 6th Galactic Emperor, Everard, and developed over time into a personal instrument of the monarch to be involved in military affairs. Officially, it was also subordinated to the Ministry of War.

Its naval equivalent was the Imperial Naval Cabinet, though it did not gain as much influence during its existence as the Military Cabinet did.

The Chief of the Military Cabinet was at the same the Adjutant-General, the personal aide-de-camp of the Emperor. Both the chief and all members of the Cabinet were appointed directly by the Emperor, and the chief also had the coveted direct access to him, which even the Chief of the Imperial General Staff and Minister of War did not have. As a result of this, the Cabinet became a politically influential organization and a center of power.

Following the Imperial Civil War and the ascension of General Field Marshal Maximilian Harmon to the office of Prime Minister, the Cabinet was reformed as the Personnel Office of the War Ministry.
