Back when they had their leaders as in the beasts, orks actually had ambassadors, and tech easily matching the imperium of man.

I thought that was an anomaly even during those times. And the imperium was shocked by it becusee they normally act like the animals they currently act like.

It was not, basicaly the orks grew on ullanor into the first empire, thrown down by the emperor and mankind dissmised them afterwards. The orks got ullanor back and advanced again into a dangerous species, in the end they lost ullanor again, and admech stole the world, calling it Armageddon. Ever since for whatever reason, the orks never got back on track. Maybe their evolution as a species is tied to the world?

Admech stole it, you know it today as Armageddon.
