Black Crusades are like mosquitos. they come around every year and drive you crazy, but eventually the climate gets cold, the Mosquitos die, and life goes on.

Aha! The Eye of Terror does have an equivalent: stagnant water!

Surprisingly, that's right; they held of a large army at hogs ridge, stemming the flow and controlling where you choose to fight, just like Cadia.

There is no real equivalent... seriously, things don't need to have equivalents... 40k is not a mirror of the real world... contrary to (seemingly) popular belief...

If you really want to try something, then I would have to say the Bosphorus would be the Cadian Gate, with the Mid East being the EoT (in ancient times anyway), but thats not a very good comparison.

That gives the implication we're all already in it. Maybe 40k is a game designed by the Emperor trying to tell us something....
