Selonopolis is an Imperial Hive World that was invaded by the Ork hordes of Warboss Bonehamma; however, the Ultramarines Chapter's 2nd Company later arrived and defeated the Xenos.[1]
Trivia
The name Selonopolis might have been inspired by Selene, in Greek mythology the goddess of the moon, so Seleno- (mind that Games Workshop wrote Selono, not Seleno) would mean related to the moon or lunar while -polis simply is Greek for "city".
