Lord Hegemon Grigori Markov. Portrait painted in 1 ABY.Joseph Skirata was born on an unknown planet nestled deep within the Outer Rim in 7 ABY. Moments after his birth, his mother, a wealthy aristocrat, died, effectively orphaning the newborn. Parentless, Joseph was adopted by his grandfather, the Supreme Commander, or Lord Hegemon, of the Grand Army of the State.
He recorded little of his lifetime prior to his adolescence but what information has been gleaned from his autobiography, In the Company of Shadows, points to a very difficult lifestyle. When he was seven he was taken from his caretakers and was enrolled in a rigorous educational system mandatory for all Miralukas. The aim of the system was to produce physically and mentally strong males to serve in the army. It encouraged conformity and the importance of the state over one's personal interest, but also generated the future elites of planet. Discipline was strict and the males were encouraged to fight amongst themselves to determine the strongest member of the group.
For five years he trained under this system until, in 19 ABY, he reached the age of twelve. Though normally it is considered too young for military service, because of the strong cultural emphasis on achieving superiority on all fronts, Joseph was officially conscripted in the Grand Army of the state.

- "Many persons believed, or pretended to believe, and confidently asserted, that religion could not coexist with the state. In the end, they were right."
