The term 'Primarchs' is derived from the Latin words 'primus' and 'archon', which translate to 'first ruler' or 'chief'. In the context of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the Primarchs are the twenty genetically-engineered "sons" of the Emperor of Mankind, and the genetic fathers of the Space Marine Legions. The Primarchs were scattered across the galaxy, and each was eventually found and reunited with their father, the Emperor. | The term 'Primarchs' is derived from the Latin words 'primus' and 'archon', which translate to 'first ruler' or 'chief'.
