Fiddler's Green is a star system in the Enigma Sector. It is a territory of the Terran Confederation.

Fiddler's Green was occupied by the Kilrathi in 2666 due to a renewed Kilrathi offensive in the sector. Midian and Niffelheim also were captured.

Fiddler's Green was eventually liberated and by 2701 was discovered to host a plentiful supply of tungsten ore on the sparsely-populated planet of Scorpion. Given tungsten's immense value in the manufacture of armor for fighters and warships, Scorpion became a crucial source of raw materials to the Terran Confederation in its war against the Nephilim. Many prospectors from across the Enigma Sector flocked to Fiddler's Green to seek their fortunes.
