===Planetary History===
 
====Star League====
 
During the final years of the [[Star League]], Najha was the host to a [[Star League Defense Force]] garrison.<ref name=FMSLDFp256>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 256: "SLDF - Draconis Combine Military Command Map"</ref>

===Star League===
In late [[3018]], after a few years stealing materials and resources from local industrial and agricultural installations, considered little more than a nuisance by regional warlords, the [[Crimson Inclination]] mobilized in force and took control of Najha utilizing a significant number of previously unknown [[BattleMech]]s. They attempted to declare Najha an independent system no longer recognizing [[Draconis Combine]] rule.<ref name=MW5M>''MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries'', "Crimson Inclination"</ref>

During the final years of the [[Star League]], Najha was the host to a [[Star League Defense Force]] garrison.<ref>Field Manual: SLDF, p. 256, "SLDF - Draconis Combine Military Command Map"</ref>
  
The DCMS sent the [[Sixth Arkab Legion]] to liberate Najha, though many of the Inclination escaped off-world. The [[Internal Security Force]] discovered documents showing they had made a deal with [[House Steiner]] [[Lyran Intelligence Corps#Loki|LOKI]] agents who had been financially propping up Crimson Inclination in order to wage a proxy war with the regional warlords. The Inclination hoped to resupply its depleted forces by meeting with LOKI agents on [[Marawi]], but this plan was foiled by the Sixth Arkab Legion, who wiped the remaining leadership off the map and the rebellion along with it.<ref name=MW5M/>

===Republic of the Sphere===
{{ApocryphalContentEnd}}
+
In February [[3107]] terrorists on '''Najha''' captured an important trade delegation from the [[Republic of the Sphere]]. The terrorists secured their hostages in an old outpost dating back to the days of the [[Star League]], and held out against security forces for twelve days within that crumbling edifice. Acting on advice from undisclosed sources, the security forces besieging the outpost - which included elements of the planetary militia and [[DEST]] troopers - launched a combined attack with snipers, artillery and mortars that killed the terrorists; unfortunately, the DEST assault team responsible for breaching the outpost walls wasn't able to gain entry in time to save the life of the senior ranking negotiator from the trade delegation before he was executed by the terrorists.<ref name="TRO:3145Mp8">''Technical Readout: 3145 Mercenaries'', p. 8, "Gun Trailers"</ref>
