====Early History====
 
−
The eruptions and earthquakes that are common to all the continents of Ryde had less of an impact on Lesser and Greater Dasentica and Kale, and it was these continents that were settled by the early colonists.<ref name=DA:RWp223/> The early settlers were able to take advantage of the relatively safe access to an abundance of geothermal energy, and easy access to minerals led to the population developing a very profitable chemical industry.<ref name=HSp169/><ref name=DA:RWp223/>
 
  
−
The tainted nature of the seas on Ryde made using the water impossible for the early inhabitants of Ryde, and as a result the planet was heavily dependent on imported water brought via iceships and the like.<ref name=DA:RWp223/> The colonists persevered with settling Ryde despite the planet's hellish appearance, and founded the city of Heaven's Gate on one of the more stable continents; their perseverance also revealed that the rich volcanic soil proved capable of growing enough food to sustain a large population.<ref name=HSp169/>

====Outer Reaches Rebellion====
+
== Planetary Geography ==
−
In May [[2237]], Ryde joined the worlds of [[Freedom]] and [[Sevren]] in declaring independence from the Terran Alliance; as a result, [[Admiral]] [[Leondard Juillard]] and [[General]] [[Armando Luchesi]] of the [[2nd Interstellar Strategic Combined Assault Force]] dispatched three squadrons of vessels to put down the [[Outer Reaches Rebellion|rebellion]]; one of these squadrons traveled to Sevren, and consisted of attack transports, assault carriers and some KF-equipped strike cruisers. One of the INTERSTRATCAF squadrons had been on exercise near [[Terra#Terra VI .28Saturn.29|Saturn]], and as a result were able to reach the Sevren system in just three days.<ref name="HK(TDC)p16A">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', pp. 16–17: "Word of Rebellion Reaches Terra"</ref>
+
The planet '''Ryde''' suffers from a slightly elongated orbit as a result of the powerful gravitational pull exerted on it by the three large gas giants within the system. Still undergoing tectonic upheaval arising from the stresses under which the planet was formed, Ryde is a world of long, harsh winters and the majority of the continents on the planet are covered with snow and ice that only melts when local tectonic activities causes volcanoes and geysers to erupt. Ryde has seven major continents; three of these are in the northern hemisphere and four in the south. Of the northern continents of Breight, Larnea and Lesser Dasentica only Lesser Dasentica is calm and warm enough to support major urban settlements. The same is true of the southern continents of Greater Dasentica and Kale, while Creos and Roschi are similarly snow and ice-locked.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>
  
−
Once in the Ryde system the INTERSTRATCAF squadron proceeded to implement the plan assigned to it by Admiral Juillard and General Luchesi; the squadron blockaded the zenith and nadir [[jump point]]s, deployed marine detachments on Sevren to impose martial law, replaced civilian leaders with military officers as the local commanders saw fit, and attempted to limit the ability of the seditious local populace to obtain or use weapons by detaining anyone found carrying such a weapon.<ref name="HK(TDC)p16A"/>
+
The largest bodies of water on Ryde are the three seas; each of these seas is tinted yellow by the sulfur that erupts from geysers in their depths and each is steaming hot. The combination of sulfur and an abundance of heavy metals in the water renders the water unsafe to use.<ref name=HSp169/><ref name=DA:RWp223/>
  
−
The local population on Ryde reacted in a pattern that would soon become familiar to the Terran marines on many worlds as news of the rebellion was carried at considerable risk by blockade runners from world to world; many civilians retreated into the wilderness, and using weapons as primitive as staves and swords began an insurgency that used extensive guerrilla tactics against the Terran Alliance forces. The marines controlled the cities, but were hampered by rules of engagement intended to preserve the colony and prevented them from conducting active genocide or using weapons of mass destruction. The knowledge possessed by the locals of the terrain gave them a huge advantage outside the cities, and guerrillas frequently attacked military units traveling between settlements. Aided covertly by the crews of the [[iceship]]s operated by the [[Ryan Cartel]], the rebellion outlasted the will of the Alliance government to fight an insurgency across fifty worlds. Alliance forces and the Alliance government abandoned Ryde, leaving the world independent, along with the vast majority of the other settled worlds in the [[Inner Sphere]].<ref name="HKp17"/>

The eruptions and earthquakes that are common to all the continents of Ryde had less of an impact on Lesser and Greater Dasentica and Kale, and it was these continents that were settled by the early colonists.<ref name=DA:RWp223/> The early settlers were able to take advantage of the relatively safe access to an abundance of geothermal enery, and easy access to minerals led to the population developing a very profitable chemical industry.<ref name=HSp169/><ref name=DA:RWp223/>
  
−
The problems with obtaining fresh water on Ryde made it an attractive proposition for the corporation [[Water Pure Industries]], which was based on the nearby world of [[Corridan IV]]. The chemical industry present on Ryde was an added incentive and Water Pure Industries established a Water Pure facility on the planet, a massive purification plant located near Heaven's Gate, the planetary capital, which was located on Kale. For centuries afterwards the massive reservoirs constructed near Heaven's Gate to catch water from the annual snowmelts fed water into the Water Pure facility which operated continuously, cleansing the water the population was dependent upon.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>

The tainted nature of the seas on Ryde made using the water impossible for the early inhabitants of Ryde, and as a result the planet was heavily dependent on imported water brought via ice ships and the like.<ref name=DA:RWp223/> The colonists perservered with settling Ryde despite the planet's hellish appearance, and founded the city of Heaven's Gate on one of the more stable continents; their perservance also revealed that the rich volcanic soil proved capable of growing enough food to sustain a large population.<ref name=HSp169/>

====Succession Wars====

===Outer Reaches Rebellion===
−
The Draconis Combine raided or attacked Ryde repeatedly, attacking both the Water Pure facility and attempting to capture the chemical industry on the planet and with it the associated products manufactured on-world, products which range from specialized pharmaceutical and fuels to industrial-grade explosions. Ryde was equally significant to the Lyran Commonwealth, which installed numerous small armed outposts near the major cities.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>

During the darkest days of the Second Succession War the Lyran Commonwealth was losing worlds steadily to both the Draconis Combine and the [[Free Worlds League]], and the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] neared the point of collapse, particularly in the 2860s and 2870s. As the 2870s drew to a close the LCAF regained some of its confidence and launched a number of attempts to recapture some of the worlds that had been lost to the Commonwealth's neighbors, but still couldn't keep pace with the rate at which worlds were being captured. The Combine continued to push towards the important world of [[Skye]], and by [[2884]] Ryde had been captured along with the worlds of [[Balkan]], [[Kessel]], [[Port Moseby]], [[Skondia]] and [[Vega]] and the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] was on the verge of being able to threaten Skye directly.<ref name="HS(TLC)p68"/>

Once in the Ryde system the INTERSTRATCAF squadron proceeded to implement the plan assigned to it by Admiral Juillard and General Luchesi; the squadron blockaded the zenith and nadir [[jump point]]s, deployed marine detachments on Sevren to impose martial law, replaced civilian leaders with military officers as the local commanders saw fit, and attempted to limit the ability of the seditious local populace to obtain or use weapons by detaining anyone found carrying such a weapon.<ref name="HK(TDC)p16A"/>

The Commonwealth began the groundwork for recapturing Ryde from the Combine during the reign of [[Archon]] [[Eric Steiner]]; dubbed [[Operation FREEDOM]], the LCAF began a military campaign in February [[2913]] led personally by the Archon which was focused on recapturing worlds. The first wave of targets for Operation FREEDOM consisted of the worlds of [[Freedom]], Ryde and [[Dalkeith]], although the Operation nearly came to a precipitous end when the Archon was killed on Freedom.<ref name="HS(TLC)p71">''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 71: "The Cost of Freedom"</ref>

The local population on Ryde reacted in a pattern that would soon become familiar to the Terran marines on many worlds as news of the rebellion was carried at considerable risk by blockade runners from world to world; many civilians retreated into the wilderness, and using weapons as primitive as staves and swords began an insurgency that used extensive guerrilla tactics against the Terran Alliance forces. The marines controlled the cities, but were hampered by rules of engagement intended to preserve the colony and prevented them from conducting active genocide or using weapons of mass destruction. The knowledge possessed by the locals of the terrain gave them a huge advantage outside the cities, and guerrillas frequently attacked military units travelling between settlements. Aided covertly by the crews of the [[iceship]]s operated by the [[Ryan Cartel]], the rebellion outlasted the will of the Alliance government to fight an insurgency across fifty worlds. Alliance forces and the Alliance government abandoned Ryde, leaving the world independent, along with the vast majority of the other settled worlds in the [[Inner Sphere]].<ref name="HKp17"/>

By the end of the [[Third Succession War]] Ryde was the administrative capital of one of the three LCAF theaters of operation on the border between the Commonwealth and the Combine.<ref name="HS(TLC)p118">''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 118: "Deployment of LCAF Forces"</ref> Despite the numerous raids and attacks against Ryde and the period of Combine occupation the Water Pure facilities on Ryde were still operating, making Ryde one of three worlds with active Water Pure manufacturing plants, although the facilities on both Ryde and Freedom were both significantly smaller than the main production facility on the world of [[Corridan IV]].<ref name="HS(TLC)p143">''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 143: "Other Major Commonwealth Industries"</ref>

The problems with obtaining fresh water on Ryde made it an attractive proposition for the corporation [[Water Pure Industries]], which was based on the nearby world of [[Corridan IV]]. The chemical industry present on Ryde was an added incentive and Water Pure Industries established a Water Pure facility on the planet, a massive purification plant located near Heaven's Gate, the planetary capital, which was located on Kale. For centuries afterwards the massive reservoirs constructed near Heaven's Gate to catch water from the annual snowmelts fed water into the Water Pure facility which operated continously, cleansing the water the population was dependent upon.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>

The Draconis Combine raided or attacked Ryde repeatedly, attacking both the Water Pure facility and attempting to capture the chemical industry on the planet and with it the associated products manufactured on-world, products which range from specialised pharmaceutical and fuels to industrial-grade explosions. Ryde was equally significant to the Lyran Commonwealth, which seeded numerous small armed outposts near the major cities.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>

During the darkest days of the Second Succession War the Lyran Commonwealth was losing worlds steadily to both the Draconis Combine and the [[Free Worlds League]], and the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] neared the point of collapse, particularly in the 2860s and 2870s. As the 2870s drew to a close the LCAF regained some of its confidence and launched a number of attempts to recapture some of the worlds that had been lost to the Commonwealth's neighbours, but still couldn't keep pace with the rate at which worlds were being captured. The Combine continued to push towards the important world of [[Skye]], and by [[2884]] Ryde had been captured along with the worlds of [[Balkan]], [[Kessel]], [[Port Moseby]], [[Skondia]] and [[Vega]] and the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] was on the verge of being able to threaten Skye directly.<ref name="HS(TLC)p68"/>

===Geography===
+
=== The Dark Age ===
−
The planet Ryde suffers from a slightly elongated orbit as a result of the powerful gravitational pull exerted on it by the three large gas giants within the system. Still undergoing tectonic upheaval arising from the stresses under which the planet was formed, Ryde is a world of long, harsh winters and the majority of the continents on the planet are covered with snow and ice that only melts when local tectonic activities causes volcanoes and geysers to erupt. Ryde has seven major continents; three of these are in the northern hemisphere and four in the south. Of the northern continents of Breight, Larnea and Lesser Dasentica only Lesser Dasentica is calm and warm enough to support major urban settlements. The same is true of the southern continents of Greater Dasentica and Kale, while Creos and Roschi are similarly snow and ice-locked.<ref name=DA:RWp223/>

The largest bodies of water on Ryde are the three seas; each of these seas is tinted yellow by the sulfur that erupts from geysers in their depths and each is steaming hot. The combination of sulfur and an abundance of heavy metals in the water renders the water unsafe to use.<ref name=HSp169/><ref name=DA:RWp223/>
