System tablespace is a tablespace that stores all the data dictionary tables in database and  it is created at the time of database creation. This tablespace is always and must be online for database to be open.

IN 10g, there are two system table spaces called system and sysaux(auxillary) tablespace. These system tablespaces are backbone of database, and data base will not function at all without these tablespaces. They created at the time of creation and contained meta data of the database. The meta data is the data about data. The system tablespace also contain data dictionary.
