The Horus Heresy proved that, despite the Emperor's efforts, the Primarchs were not perfect; they could easily be led astray and fall to Chaos.
In order to prevent one man from gaining as much power as Horus had, the branches of the Imperial armed forces were separated, the Inquisition was founded, and the loyal Space Marine Legions were divided into Chapters of roughly one thousand Marines, in accordance with the Codex Astartes.
The Second Founding was not universally accepted; the Space Wolves and Imperial Fists in particular objected to dividing their Legions, and the Imperium was nearly torn apart by another civil war. For better or for worse, Leman Russ and Rogal Dorn finally relented, although the Space Wolves and Black Templars have since grown their numbers to many more times the usual size.

Raven Guard
Grey Knights
The Grey Knights were not created from any of the Space Marine Legions, as their gene-seed was specially created by the God-Emperor of Mankind himself and their founding members were hand-picked by Malcador the Sigillite; many of them were loyalists who had formerly been a part of a Traitor Legion (e.g. Nathaniel Garro, Garviel Loken, and Iacton Qruze). They were founded to supply the newly-formed Inquisition with a strike force against future Chaos threats.
