The average citizen? Likely nothing at all. It's probably safe to say that all the countless trillions of humans across the galaxy know next to nothing about the Imperium itself. Unless you live on Terra itself (or some very well-integrated world), I'd say you probably know nothing of imperial history. At most, you may have heard some faint wisps of legend about an "Emperor" who saved humanity, but that would have probably blended into your own world's myths and religions since then, and may simply be a belief in a god of some sort.
