{{redirect|Solar|the [[Macharian Sector]]'s currency|Imperial Currency}}{{redirect|Solar system|the general term for a set of objects orbiting a star or stars|System}}{{GalaxyPortal}}{{ImperiumPortal}}The '''Sol System''' or '''Terran System''' is the name of the [[Wikipedia:Solar System|Solar System]] in the [[Age of the Imperium]]. The system is named for its sun, and is part of the [[Segmentum Solar]]. Its planets include Holy [[Terra]] and [[Mars]]. ==History==The birthplace of humanity on the planet Terra, the Sol System was fully colonized by humans by [[M15]].{{Fn|6}} During the [[Dark Age of Technology]] humanity expanded across the stars thanks to the invention of [[Warp Drive]]s and [[Navigator]]s, and in this period the Sol System was dominated by the empires of Terra and Mars which coexisted peacefully.{{Fn|7}} During the [[Age of Strife]], the Sol System fell into complete anarchy. Terra collapsed into wars between [[Techno-Barbarian]]s while Mars reverted to complete isolation and religious worship of technology.{{Fn|8}} Salvation only came with the coming of the [[Emperor]], who unified Terra, Mars, and then the entire Sol System into the fledgling [[Imperium]] during the [[Unification Wars]] and [[Great Crusade]].{{Fn|7}} During the subsequent [[Horus Heresy]], the Sol System was the site of bitter fighting between loyalists and traitors during the [[Schism of Mars]] and [[Solar War]]. At the final phase of the war [[Horus]]' forces succeeded in capturing the Sol System and besieged Terra itself, but were eventually defeated and repelled during the [[Great Scouring]]. Since that time, the Sol System has not been the site of all-out war though it did see fighting during the [[War of the Beast]]{{Fn|9}}, [[Age of Apostasy]]{{Fn|10}}, and recently the [[Battle of Lion's Gate]].{{Fn|11}} The System was also saw a minor but mysterious [[Necron]] raid on Mars in late [[M41]].{{Fn|12}} During the [[Noctis Aeterna]] the Sol System was threatened by the [[Khornate]] [[Crusade of Slaughter]] but subsequently defeated by an [[Indomitus Crusade]] fleet under [[Cassandra VanLeskus]].{{Fn|13}} In addition, [[Ganymede (Moon)|Ganymede]] became infested with [[Daemon]]s and the [[Grey Knights]] were forced to purge the planet.{{Fn|14}} ==Celestial Bodies==
