== Planetary History ==
=== Reunification War ===
'''Zathras''' was a member of the Magistracy of Canopus when a [[Star League Defense Force]] task force under the command of [[Captain-General]] [[Marion Marik]] was assigned to conquer the Magistracy of Canopus in 2577. Zathras was targetted by the SLDF in 2583 following the catastrophic losses the [[MAF]] navy took at [[Thurrock]], and was conquered quickly by two of the [[Free Worlds League Military]] [[regiment|regiments]] acting as auxiliaries to [[VII Corps (Star League)|VII Corps]], the [[1st Defenders of Andurien]] and the [[3rd Orloff Grenadiers]], in late 2583.<ref name="H:RWp103"/><ref name="H:RWp149">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 149, "Magistracy Of Canopus Front (2583-2588)"</ref>

Zathras would be occupied by the SLDF for the remainder of the war; once the Reunification War ended, a number of Magistracy worlds were annexed by the [[Free Worlds League]], but Zathras remained a part of the Magistracy.<ref name="H:RWp103"/><ref name="H:RWp159"/>

{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
At some time prior to dissapearing from the maps, the world secceded from the Magistracy declaring its independence. Since then, and styled as an "Empire" the planet's government has made movements towards another independent planet: [[Aquagea]].<ref>''Battletech Video Game''</ref>
