===Planetary History===
 
====FedCom Civil War Era====
 
On 4 April [[3067]], [[Clan Diamond Shark]] merchant [[Mark Sennet]] attempted to conduct a live-fire demonstration of the ''[[Ha Otoko]]'' near Feuerberg for potential sale to the Hanseatic League. However, [[Regional Defense Force Four]] Major [[Hohiro Watanabe]] betrayed him in order to steal Clan equipment. This effort was unsuccessful and Sennet escaped with his life and his 'Mech.<ref name=MA>''Mutual Advantage''</ref>
 
 
 
====Hanseatic Crusade====
 
During [[Escorpión Imperio]]'s takeover of the Hanseatic League, [[Alpha Galaxy (Escorpión Imperio)|Alpha Galaxy]] advanced on Riga as part of Wave 4 in May [[3140]] after defeating [[Regional Defense Force Five]] on [[Köningsberg]] earlier in Wave 3. Riga fell with ease.<ref name=OTP:HCp12-17/>
 
 
 
===Military Deployment===
 
====3067====
 
* [[Regional Defense Force Four]] (Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FM:Up204"/>
