From Lexicanum
After the Horus Heresy, the loyal Space Marine Legions were split into smaller Chapters of a thousand Space Marines, in order to prevent any one person from being able to control so many troops ever again. Over time, the number of chapters has grown, and is said to number a thousand.
This is a pictorial list of the chapters named by Games Workshop in official texts, and does not include any "home grown" chapters, though it does include the Chaos Marine Legions and Renegade chapters.
