The '''Ctesiphus [[System]]''' is located in the [[Chalnath Expanse]], which in the wake of the [[Great Rift]]'s creation, was struck by the [[Tau T'au Empire]]'s [[Fifth Sphere of Expansion]].{{Fn|1}}
==History==
Millions of years ago, the System was part of the [[Necrontyr]] [[Infinite Empire]] and belonged to the [[Necrontyr]] [[Malthost Dynasty]], itself a client of the [[Sautekh Dynasty]].{{Fn|2}}
In the modern era, before its direct threat from the [[TauT'au]], Ctesiphus was subjected to [[Genestealer Cult]] uprisings so successful, that more than half of its key worlds fell in a matter of months. Those few that remained loyal to the [[Imperium]] now hold on by a thread and their enduring faith in the [[Emperor]] is all that gives them strength.{{Fn|1}} Currently, Imperial efforts in the System are focused on defending the [[capital world]] of [[Phorentis]] from the Tau.{{Fn|2}}
==Known Worlds==
*[[Phorentis]] - Capital{{Fn|1}}
*[[Ctesiphus VII]] - A cold and unsettled world at the Systemsystem's edge.{{Fn|2}}
