There is one ground from the batt to the block or to the alt bracket. Then there is a pigtail that goes from the batt's grd to the edge of the inner fender and fender under the hood. Call those the systems ground if you want.

Now everything else electrical requires a ground connection into the systems ground. It could be through a bolt screwed into the floor pan or dash frame, it could be dedicated grd wires or a panel that is grounded that ties several bulbs together. Bottom line is every positive connection needs a ground.
