===Planetary History===
 
Cavanaugh was discovered in [[2290]] and then sold in [[2325]] to a member of the former English court, [[Duke of Cavanaugh|Duke]] [[Alvin Windsor-Moon]]. Among the first settlers were the Arthurian Actors Guild, and many of the locations on the world take their names from Arthurian legends.<ref name=HB:HSp77/>

==Owner History==
Cavanaugh II was one of the worlds the Lyran Commonwealth managed to recapture from the Free Worlds League in [[2468]] thanks to the use of [[BattleMech]]s, a military asset that the League wouldn't be able to field until [[2470]].<ref name="HM(TFWL)p16"/>

Cavanaugh II was one of a number of Lyran Commonwealth border worlds to be struck by a devastating cross-border raids by the Free Worlds League between [[2786]] and [[2790]], as the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] began to crack under the pressure of continuing efforts to annex the [[Bolan Thumb]] while also attempting to maintain a defensive posture against both the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] and the [[Free Worlds League Military]].<ref name="FSWp62">''First Succession War'', p. 62: "The War of Raids: House Steiner's Succession War"</ref>

====Third Succession War====
+
* [[3025]] - Lyran Commonwealth {{cn}}
In [[2952]], Free Worlds League forces spearheaded by the [[Third Marik Militia]] successfully invaded Cavanaugh II. Suspicious of the Third's abilities, the Commonwealth prioritized a headhunting mission against the Third's commander over retaking the planet. The [[Eridani Light Horse]] succeeded in killing him and confirmed him as the Commonwealth traitor [[Mikhail Tertren]].<ref name=HS71/>

Looking to exact revenge on [[Nik's Cavaliers]] for disrupting their attack on [[Cole Harbour]], the [[Black Inferno]] [[mercenary]] group attempted to ambush them on Cavanaugh by replicating the conditions, going so far as to sacrifice a few tanks and 'Mechs on the ground to sell the deception and lure the Cavaliers into the port city, where Inferno had been waiting. Though the Cavaliers were able to fight through the trap, it was only part of their operation. Knowing their ''[[Leopard]]''-class [[DropShip]] would have to eventually come down to the planet—either to extract their lance or rescue them—two Inferno [[aerospace fighter]]s attempted to cripple the ''Leopard'' while it was in low orbit. Cavaliers CO [[Ryana Campbell]] threw up a screen and took evasive action, and thanks to the modifications Chief Tech [[Fahad Arazad]] made on the engines, they were able to outrun the ASFs long enough for their team to clean up the Inferno forces on the planet. Now at a disadvantage, Black Inferno retreated.<ref name=MW5M>''MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries'', Campaign Mission 10: "Lock n' Load"</ref>

| [[Free Worlds League | FWL]]
Naming conventions on Cavanaugh II appear to have been strongly influenced by the tales and legends of King Arthur; the continents are named various for knights of the Round Table (Bedivere, Gareth, Gawain and Tristram) and the illegitimate son of King Arthur and his half-sister Morgaine (also referred to as Morgan or Morgana), Mordred. The capital city of Cavanaugh II, Caerleon, has the same name as the birthplace of Mordred and was the site of a large Roman settlement in Wales during the era of the Roman Empire, one of the three largest garrisons in Britain (the two contemporaries to Caerleon being York and Chester). The noted author Geoffrey of Monmouth wrote at length about Caerleon, making it one of the most important cities in Britain in his work and the capital city of King Arthur.

The four moons of Cavanaugh II, Cambriae, Gododin, Nennius and Tennyson are all names also associated with the legends around King Arthur; Nennius was a Welsh monk from the ninth century often accredited with authorship of the ''Historia Brittonum'', which was the first historical text to portray King Arthur - although Arthur is depicted variously as a military leader, soldier and warrior but not a king. Cambriae is likely to be a references to the ''Annales Cambriae'', or "The Annals of Wales", a collection of Cambro-Latin chronicles dating from approximately the twelfth and thirteenth century (although some works within the Annales Cambriae are purportedly copies of earlier tenth century texts) and which have been argued to contain two entries referencing King Arthur, one entry referencing Medraut (Mordred) and one on Merlin. The various entries cover the Battle of Badon, the Battle of Armterid and the Strife of Camlann.

The moon Gododin is most likely a reference to ''Y Gododdin'', a Welsh medieval poem that recounts the elegies of Gododdin, an ancient Brittonic kingdom; Y Gododdin makes what may be the earliest known reference to what might also be King Arthur in the form of a comparison between one of the warriors recounted in the battle of Catraeth and Arthur. Lastly, Tennyson is likely a reference to Alfred Tennyson, a noted poet whose works include the most famous Victorian-era adaptation of the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, ''Morte d'Arthur''.
