		+	== Planetary History ==
		+	Corridan IV was a keenly-sought colony world. The ecosystem was perfect for humans and their crops, with one small exception: The water supply was filled with lethal levels of heavy metals and a bacteria that would make every living plant or animal on the world toxic to humans. To prevent the colony from failing, the first colonists relied on imported water delivered by the [[Ice Ships]] of the [[Ryan Cartel]].<ref name=DARWp208/>
		+
		+	After studying the problem for years, a part-time chemical engineer named Gabriel Tal developed a unique fusion filtration system that could economically clean Corridan's water. 95% of all the toxins were removed via this process. Tal kept the process a secret and used it to form Water Pure Industries. This company grew to be the largest of the five Lyran water and air filtration systems manufacturers. Water Pure Industries traded publicly, but the company remained mostly in the hands of the Tal family throughout its history, with the company expanding through the addition of manufacturing sites on both [[Freedom]] and [[Ryde]] and distribution outlets on a dozen worlds dotted throughout the [[Federation of Skye]]. Though destroyed and damaged repeatedly during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]], the company has always recovered and even thrived after being attacked - even though the main Corridan manufacturing plant was destroyed for the sixth time during the [[Jihad]].<ref name=DARWp208/>
−	===Planetary History===	+	By the time Corridan was ceded to the Republic of the Sphere, the scars from many raids covered the world. The citizens of Corridan undertook a massive beautification program, and these scars were erased. Combined with the fact that most of the population lives in large cities on Feyrun and Cederban, by the [[thirty-second century]] Corridan was once more a beautiful world.<ref name=DARWp208/>

The ecosystem was perfect for humans and their crops, with one small exception: The water supply was filled with lethal levels of heavy metals and a bacteria that would make every living plant or animal on the world toxic to humans. To prevent the colony from failing, the first colonists relied on imported water delivered by the [[Ice Ships]] of the [[Ryan Cartel]].<ref name=DARWp208/> After studying the problem for years, a part-time chemical engineer named Gabriel Tal developed a unique fusion filtration system that could economically clean Corridan's water. 95% of all the toxins were removed via this process. Tal kept the process a secret and used it to form Water Pure Industries. This company grew to be the largest of the five Lyran water and air filtration systems manufacturers. Water Pure Industries traded publicly, but the company remained mostly in the hands of the Tal family throughout its history, with the company expanding through the addition of manufacturing sites on both [[Freedom]] and [[Ryde]] and distribution outlets on a dozen worlds dotted throughout the [[Federation of Skye]]. Though destroyed and damaged repeatedly during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]], the company has always recovered and even thrived after being attacked - even though the main Corridan manufacturing plant was destroyed for the sixth time during the [[Jihad]].<ref name=DARWp208/> By the time Corridan was ceded to the Republic of the Sphere, the scars from many raids covered the world. The citizens of Corridan undertook a massive beautification program, and these scars were erased. Combined with the fact that most of the population lives in large cities on Feyrun and Cederban, by the [[thirty-second century]] Corridan was once more a beautiful world.<ref name=DARWp208/> The world's major export in the thirty-second century was still filtration systems, but Corridan was also a noted exporter of agricultural produce and products from the many ranches on the world. Particular exports include certain native fruits and vegetables and meat from the Corridani grazer, a dim-witted creature that was approximately one and a half times the size of a [[Terra]]n buffalo and which produced meat that strongly resembled beef.<ref name=DARWp208/> == Political Affiliation == * [[2341]] - No record <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 13, "Lyran Commonwealth at their Founding [2341] Map"</ref> * [[2571]] - No record <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 25, "Lyran Commonwealth after Age of War [2571] Map"</ref> * [[2596]] - No record <ref name="H:RWp159">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 159, "Inner Sphere Map [2596]"</ref> * [[2750]] - [[Lyran Commonwealth]] <ref name="ER:2750p37">''Era Report: 2750'', p. 37, "Inner Sphere - 2750"</ref> * [[2765]] - Lyran Commonwealth <ref name="H:LoTV1p11>''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1'', p. 11, "Inner Sphere - 2765"</ref> * [[2822]] - Lyran Commonwealth <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 36, "Lyran Commonwealth after First Succession War [2822] Map"</ref><ref name="H:LOTV2p122">''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2'', p. 122-123, "Inner Sphere - 2822"</ref> * [[2864]] - Lyran Commonwealth <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 40, "Lyran Commonwealth after Second Succession War [2864] Map"</ref> * [[3025]] - Lyran Commonwealth <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 47, "Lyran Commonwealth after Third Succession War [3025] Map"</ref><ref name="HKp132">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 132, "District and Prefecture Boundaries of Kurita Space"</ref> * [[3030]] - Lyran Commonwealth <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 56, "Lyran Commonwealth after Fourth Succession War [3030] Map"</ref> * [[3040]] - [[Federated Commonwealth]] <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 59, "Lyran Commonwealth after War of 3039 [3040] Map"</ref><ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 133, "Inner Sphere - 3040"</ref> * [[3050]] - Federated Commonwealth <ref>''Era Report: 3052'', p. 11, "Inner Sphere Map [3050]"</ref> * [[3052]] - Federated Commonwealth <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 61, "Lyran Commonwealth after Clan Invasion [3052] Map"</ref><ref>''Era Report: 3052'', p. 23, "Inner Sphere Map [3052]"</ref> * [[3057]] - [[Lyran Alliance]] <ref>''Era Report: 3062'', p. 11, "Inner Sphere Map [3057]"</ref> * [[3063]] - Lyran Alliance <ref>''Era Report: 3062'', p. 29, "Inner Sphere Map [3063]"</ref> * [[3067]] - Lyran Alliance <ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 70, "Lyran Alliance after FedCom Civil War [3067] Map"</ref><ref>''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 43, "Inner Sphere Map - [October 3067]"</ref> * [[3075]] - Lyran Alliance <ref>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 65, "Inner Sphere [3075] Map"</ref> * [[3079]] - Lyran Alliance <ref>''Field Report: LAAF'', p. 25, "Lyran Commonwealth Deployment Map [3079]"</ref> * [[3081]] - [[Republic of the Sphere]] <ref>''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 63, "Inner Sphere Map - [March 3081]"</ref> * [[3085]] - Republic of the Sphere <ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 127, "Inner Sphere Map - [October 3085]"</ref> * [[3130]] - Republic of the Sphere <ref name=DARWp208/><ref name="MotIS3130">''Map of the Inner Sphere 3130''</ref> * [[3135]] - Independent World <ref name=ER:3145p11>''Era Report: 3145'', p. 11, "Inner Sphere Map - [3135]"</ref> * [[3145]] - [[Clan Jade Falcon]] <ref name=ER:3145p39>''Era Report: 3145'', p. 39, "Inner Sphere Map - [3145]"</ref><ref name="FM:3145pVI">''Field Manual: 3145'', p.
