Solomon is an Imperium planet.[1]
Human habitation of the planet predates the Angevin Crusade. Presumably, Solomon was named after the famous Rogue Trader Solomon Haarlock, who used this planet as the base for explorations of the sector in late M36.[3]
Solomon was conquered in the beginning of the Angevin Crusade. During the next stage of the Crusade — the Reaping of the Emperor's Wrath — the system of a planet became an anchor to continue the campaign.[1]
Presumably, the planet is also the place of origin of the reptilan Grox.[2]
