Nithander was a world that resisted compliance during the Great Crusade in order to preserve their culture.[1]
They were brought into the Imperium in the Nithander Compliance in a single day, led by the Blood Angels Legion. The civilization was of a technological level comparable to the Imperium, although slightly divergent. Their lasguns were, for example, based on polished crystals and gaseous transmission chambers instead of powerpacks and lenses. [1]
The planet is of note for being where the bulk of the Legion had been deployed when they were informed that Sanguinius had been found by the Emperor elsewhere. [1]
