== Planetary History ==
 +
Carnwath had little to recommend it. It lacked both the resources and strategic location that made other worlds targets during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]]. Its only claim to fame was the Ruins of Carnwath, which some people believed were the remnants of an alien civilization and which had caused a brief wave of panic when first discovered during the early days of human space exploration.<ref name=DARWp207/>
 +
 
 +
The Ruins - which consisted of five rough pyramid shapes in a crater ringed by rock formations resembling vaguely humanoid faces - were the subject of an archaeological study to determine their origin. Although the rock formations bore a resemblance to the carved statues found on Easter Island on [[Terra]], the archaeologists took less than six months to confirm that the structures were simply a product of the local natural process of erosion from wind and water exposing the remains of a long-ago asteroid strike. The rock formations and the pyramids were composed mainly of metallic ores, including unusual but naturally-occurring radium deposits, and were the remnants of an asteroid that had partially liquified whilst falling to the surface of Carnwath before fragmenting on impact. The humanoid remains discovered nearby that had also been cited as proof of the link between the pyramids and alien intelligence were similarly disproven by a brief exobiological expedition that determined that the remains were actually those of an indigenous amphibian desert scavenger that resembled the prehistoric velociraptors, and had likely been killed when the asteroid struck. Despite these scientific studies, visitors who believed in alien intelligence continued to visit Carnwath to see the ruins well into the [[thirty-second century]], almost eight hundred years after Carnwath was first explored.<ref name=DARWp207/>

Carnwath's people were known for their savvy business sense. Their business savvy was put to use in [[3134]], while the Republic was failing, the business people of Carnwath cut a deal with neighboring worlds to form a coalition of worlds. Carnwath became the capital of the [[Carnwath Coalition]].{{cn}}

The Carnwath and the other Coalition worlds people struck a deal with Clan Jade Falcon when the Falcons invaded later in 3134, so that they could co-exist within the aegis of Clan Jade Falcon's territory. Carnwath offered tribute to the Falcons while continuing to exist as a domestically-independent entity and still controlled their own affairs while they were controlled by the Falcons.{{cn}}
