===Planetary History===
| [[Federated Suns | FS]]
+
The planet Verde may be most famous for one of its native animals, the [[Silver-Furred Walrus]]. The animal was plentiful prior to the world's colonization, but overhunting began to reduce their numbers, especially during the devastation of the [[Succession Wars]]. With few other options for food, the planet's inhabitants hunted the animal for its plentiful meat, valuable hides and blubber that could be processed into heating fuel. Both its meat and ivory were also highly prized commodities for off-world markets. As a result, Verde's walruses were constantly overhunted and teetering on the edge of extinction by the 3010s. When the Federated Suns put the walrus on its Protected Species List in 3021, the results were catastrophic for the local economy. Natural means, including breeding the walrus on other planets, were attempted to save the population, but it would take secrets held within the [[Helm Memory Core]] to truly reverse the decline.<ref name="HHD195">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 195, "Creatures"</ref>

In [[3015]], a wave of [[Black Inferno]] attacks in [[Federated Suns]] space left numerous farm worlds undefended. These were simple farming and extraction planets but still contained valuable resources that opportunists were looking to acquire. [[Interstellar Expeditions]] hired a mercenary unit to stage diversionary raids, occupying the [[Coalition of Farmers|local militias]] so that its salvage crews could be sent planetside to get what they needed. [[Quincy]]'s primary comm center was destroyed and a militia garrison complex was demolished on Verde.<ref name=MW5Mptts>''MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries'', "Picking at the Scraps"</ref>

+
By [[3057]], genetic engineering and laboratory production by [[Melcher Meat and Animals Limited]] had stabilized the walrus population on Verde, as well as establishing walrus populations on three other worlds. Melcher-made walrus meat, pelts and ivory were exported to interstellar markets. By [[3067]], walrus ranching was now the predominant source for Silver-Furred Walrus products, although the general consensus was that wild walruses still produced the best products.<ref name="HHD195"/>

In [[3071]], the [[Verde Defenders Planetary Militia|militia]] was set to full alert when a [[Clan Nova Cat]] group consisting of two ''[[Tramp]]''-class and a single ''[[Invader]]''-class [[JumpShip]]s, both bearing a full complement of [[DropShip]]s, entered the system, though nothing happened.<ref name=Nova_Cats_Verde/>

Sausages made from the Silver-Furred Walrus were still being exported during the peace of the [[Republic Age]], now known as "Verde walrus sausages" in honor of their origin planet. They could be found on worlds as distant as [[Kandersteg]].<ref>''One Thousand''</ref>

Spectral classG[1]
Recharge time188 hours[1]

The Verde system was home to at least one habitable world or construct and as of 3152 was located in the Draconis March region of the Federated Suns.[2]

System Description[edit]

The Verde system is located near the Chaumont and Fairfax systems. It lies Spinward from Terra.[3][2]

System History[edit]

The Verde system was colonized during the First Exodus from Terra.[4]

Planetary History[edit]

The planet Verde may be most famous for one of its native animals, the Silver-Furred Walrus. The animal was plentiful prior to the world's colonization, but overhunting began to reduce their numbers, especially during the devastation of the Succession Wars. With few other options for food, the planet's inhabitants hunted the animal for its plentiful meat, valuable hides and blubber that could be processed into heating fuel. Both its meat and ivory were also highly prized commodities for off-world markets. As a result, Verde's walruses were constantly overhunted and teetering on the edge of extinction by the 3010s. When the Federated Suns put the walrus on its Protected Species List in 3021, the results were catastrophic for the local economy. Natural means, including breeding the walrus on other planets, were attempted to save the population, but it would take secrets held within the Helm Memory Core to truly reverse the decline.[38]

Apocryphal Content Starts

The information after this notice comes from apocryphal sources; the canonicity of such information is uncertain.
Please view the reference page for information regarding their canonicity.

In 3015, a wave of Black Inferno attacks in Federated Suns space left numerous farm worlds undefended. These were simple farming and extraction planets but still contained valuable resources that opportunists were looking to acquire. Interstellar Expeditions hired a mercenary unit to stage diversionary raids, occupying the local militias so that its salvage crews could be sent planetside to get what they needed. Quincy's primary comm center was destroyed and a militia garrison complex was demolished on Verde.[39]

Apocryphal Content Ends

By 3057, genetic engineering and laboratory production by Melcher Meat and Animals Limited had stabilized the walrus population on Verde, as well as establishing walrus populations on three other worlds. Melcher-made walrus meat, pelts and ivory were exported to interstellar markets. By 3067, walrus ranching was now the predominant source for Silver-Furred Walrus products, although the general consensus was that wild walruses still produced the best products.[38]

In 3071, the militia was set to full alert when a Clan Nova Cat group consisting of two Tramp-class and a single Invader-class JumpShips, both bearing a full complement of DropShips, entered the system, though nothing happened.[40]

Sausages made from the Silver-Furred Walrus were still being exported during the peace of the Republic Age, now known as "Verde walrus sausages" in honor of their origin planet. They could be found on worlds as distant as Kandersteg.[41]
