Throughout the Empire's planets a common ground that is shared is the requirement of tithes of the planet's populace must be given over to the state. On most worlds it is roughly 1% of the total population on others it is even higher (Ex: The slave exporting planet of Vicoria's rate is 15%)

These tithes are considered 'Imperial Property' or chattle of the state and take the form of laborers of the state who work and toil within the factories of the Empire or help build it's massive and extravagant buildings. On other worlds this tithe can be clerks, monks, or servants truly it comes down to the world in question and the individual in question.

Most of these labors work for 10-20 year terms of service and will eventually either re-gain their citizenship or gain it as well as developing trade skills from their service across the Empire. When ever their service is done they are also granted a allowance from the state and some basic retail.

Now these tithes only come after the worlds last tithe is complete so normally 10 year increment although some have multiple tithes going on at different times leading to a pretty much constant shipping off of workers.

This is not the only sentient tithe either. All psychics must be handed over to the State as well as any other 'strange' or unusual 'births', 'breeds', or 'individuals' who are deemed either valuable to the State or to dangerous to be left unchecked.

Military tithes are also necessary with every world having to provide both legions of troops for the Custudo and recruits for the 'True Legions' and any other special formations the State deems necessary.
