Barahona
System Information
X:Y Coordinates684.66 : 284.05[e]

The Barahona system was home to at least one habitable world and as at 2764 was located in the Traders Domain of the Outworlds Alliance.[1]

System Description

The Barahona system lies close to the Danli and Las Tunas systems.[2][3]

System History

The Barahona system was either colonised by the Outworlds Alliance during the Star League era or was an already-inhabited system that was incorporated into the Alliance during this era and became significant enough for Inner Sphere nations to begin recording it on maps.[2] Barahona was removed from maps at some point during the Second Succession War,[4][5] indicating that the system had become too insignificant to merit further recording.

Political Affiliation

Planetary History

As of 2846 Barahona was defended by their own militia unit Barahona Defense Force after no help from Alphard and the Outworlds Alliance came. This militia, formed by IndustrialMechs, vehicles and infantry to fend off a pirate force calling themselves the Star League Wendigos (a small 'Mech unit), and were able to salvage one 'Mech.[14]

As of 3061 Barahona was is still inhabited, apparently as an independent world, and noted to be a popular raiding target although no attack had been successful for a decade. The world was defended by the Barahona Defense Force which did field at least one BattleMech lance as well as hovertanks and helicopters. On 15 August 3061 they fought a raiding party from nearby Sorsk to a draw.[22]

Barahona was described as a "water-rich" and (as of 3061) sparsely populated world. There were few communities, with over 90% of the population located on one continent. Pirate groups had been known to linger in the planet's wilds, but there are too few resources for them to remain there for long.[35]
