Imperator comes from two Roman words, "Im" and "Parere," which together mean "To prepare for"—that is, to Be Prepared. An Emperor is one who has to be prepared to face any difficulty or danger that may threaten the country.
Scouts have in the same way to Be Prepared to help their country in any difficulty or danger; and, therefore, we are all working to back up our King.
God Save the King.
