'''The Great Crusade''' (beginning c. [[M30]] and continuing for around two hundred years{{Fn|1}}) was a brief age of rebuilding and reunification following the complete regression of mankind during the [[Age of Strife]]. It was a time when the [[Emperor]] still lived in the conventional sense and led his race in person. It followed the Emperor's conquest of Terra in the [[Unification Wars]] and lasts lasted roughly from the [[First Pacification of Luna|conquest of Earth's moon]] to the [[Battle of Isstvan III]] and the beginning of the [[Horus Heresy]].
