−	Strana Mechty is a planet in the [[Kerensky Cluster]]. Its name is Russian for "Dream Country" (Страна Мечты). It is considered an almost sacred world to the [[Clans]]. It was the site where [[Nicholas Kerensky]] and his band of 800 others managed to escape, fleeing the chaos of the [[Pentagon Worlds]], which the [[Operation Exodus|Exodus Fleet]] first settled.  Nicholas Kerensky founded the rigid social structure of the Clans on Strana Mechty and the world can be seen as the birthplace of the Clans. The world has an enclave for each Clan and the [[Hall of Khans]], a place where the different Clans can meet to debate issues and appoint an [[ilKhan]]. The Hall of Khans is surrounded by individual [[Clan Hall|Clan Halls]]. Strana Mechty also contains a [[Gene Center]] that contains the genetic material of every Clan's [[Bloodname]]d warriors as a backup in case a Clan's Gene Center is destroyed.<ref name=TCWOK110/>	+	'''Strana Mechty''' is a planet in the [[Kerensky Cluster]].

It was the site where [[Nicholas Kerensky]] and his band of 800 others managed to escape, fleeing the chaos of the [[Pentagon Worlds]], which the [[Operation Exodus|Exodus Fleet]] first settled. Nicholas Kerensky founded the rigid social structure of the Clans on Strana Mechty and the world can be seen as the birthplace of the Clans. The world has an enclave for each Clan and the [[Hall of Khans]], a place where the different Clans can meet to debate issues and appoint an [[ilKhan]]. The Hall of Khans is surrounded by individual [[Clan Hall|Clan Halls]]. Strana Mechty also contains a [[Gene Center]] that contains the genetic material of every Clan's [[Bloodname]]d warriors as a backup in case a Clan's Gene Center is destroyed.<ref name=TCWOK110/> ===Planet History=== The planet was surveyed in [[2792]],<ref name=VRcP>''Visions of Rebirth'', Prologue</ref><ref name=HOKp19>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 19</ref> colonized in [[2793]],<ref name=HOKp102>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 102</ref> and was prospering by [[2795]].<ref name=HOKp19/> By the outbreak of the Pentagon Civil War in [[2801]], it had become a thriving colony world capable of sustaining several adapted Terran species which would become Clan totems.<ref name=OTPREVIVALp4/> On 8 June [[2802]], the [[Second Exodus]] began landing on Strana Mechty. Almost overnight, Strana Mechty's population went from 55,000<ref name=HOKp139>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 139</ref> to about a million. Work began on [[Katyusha City]], named for the late [[Katyusha Kerensky]].<ref name=HOKp24>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 24</ref> The city was shaped like a giant five-point star, which eventually became home to one of the five [[Clan Caste System|castes]]. A new military academy, officially the Katyusha City Military Academy but often called the DeChavilier Military Academy, was formed, and scientific and exploration work began anew.<ref name=HOKp25>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 25</ref> Cultural changes were not always well-received, such as the fostering system.<ref name=HOKp27>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 27</ref> The immense pressures placed on the industrial infrastructure led to many difficulties and tragedies before reforms could eventually be fully enacted.<ref name=HOKp28>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 28</ref> Incentives were offered to those who took part in arranged reproduction, and the birthrate climbed significantly.<ref name=HOKp29>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 29</ref> The final break with the old ways came in late December [[2814]], when an assassin wounded Nicholas Kerensky and wounded and killed others during a parade through Katyusha. After that, supporting the Kerensky vision was the only socially acceptable option.<ref name=HOKp30>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 30</ref> On 20 March [[2821]], the Clans gathered on Strana Mechty for the final time before [[Operation KLONDIKE]].<ref name=HOKp33>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 33</ref> ==Military Deployment== ===3059=== * [[Kindraa Sainze (Clan Fire Mandrill)]]<ref name=FMCRC149>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 149: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Omega Keshik (Clan Hell's Horses)]]<ref name=FMCRC150>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 150: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Turkina Keshik (Clan Jade Falcon)]]<ref name=FMCRC153>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 153: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[18th Armored Cavalry Squadron (Clan Star Adder)]]<ref name=FMCRC155>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 155: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Golden Keshik (Clan Wolf)]]<ref name=FMCRC157>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 157: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[4th Striker (Clan Wolf)]]<ref name=FMCRC157/> * [[Silver Keshik (Clan Wolf)]]<ref name=FMCRC157/> * [[Red Keshik (Clan Wolf)]]<ref name=FMCRC158>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 158: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> ===3061=== :<u>Clan Cloud Cobra</u> :* [[Cobra Pharaoh Keshik (Clan Cloud Cobra)|Cobra Pharaoh Keshik]]<ref name=FMWC161>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 161: "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> :<u>Clan Coyote</u> :* [[Golden Keshik (Clan Coyote)|Golden Keshik]]<ref name=FMWC161/> :* [[Silver Keshik (Clan Coyote)|Silver Keshik]]<ref name=FMWC161/> :<u>Clan Diamond Shark</u> :* [[Diamond Skate (Clan Diamond Shark)|The Diamond Skate]]<ref name= FMWC162 >''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', 162</ref> :* [[Emerald Skate (Clan Diamond Shark)|Emerald Skate]]<ref name= FMWC162 >''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', 162</ref> :* [[83rd Combined Strike (Clan Diamond Shark)]]<ref name=FMWC163>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 163: "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Corvus Keshik (Clan Snow Raven)]]<ref name=FMWC165>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 165: "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Triasch Keshik (Clan Steel Viper)]]<ref name=FMWC165/> * [[Blood Guard Keshik (Clan Blood Spirit)]]<ref name=FMCRC148>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 148: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[Omega Keshik (Clan Hell's Horses)]]<ref name=FMCRC150>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 150: "Crusader Clans Deployment Table"</ref> ===3067=== :*[[Third Battle (Clan Jade Falcon)|Third Battle Cluster]]<ref name=FMU72+73>''Field Manual: Updates'', pp. 72–73</ref> ===Geography=== ===Planetary Locations=== {{scrollbox| * Bearcat: A city built by Clan Wolverine.<ref name=BoIc3>''Betrayal of Ideals'', ch. 3</ref> * Cameron: Continent<ref name=HOKp139>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 139</ref> * Forest of Gunsburg:<ref name=BoIc5>''Betrayal of Ideals'', ch. 5</ref> * [[Katyusha City]]: the largest city in Clan space. ** [[Hall of Khans]]<ref name=HOKp139/> ** Inner Sphere Embassy: Temporarily "built" after the Annihilation of Clan Smoke Jaguar<ref>''MechWarrior's Guide to the Clans'', p. 104: "Vendettas"</ref> ** Master Genetics Repository<ref name=HOKp139/> **Svobodya Zemylya Park: location of the Hall of Khans.<ref name=HOKp139/> * Kerensky Prime: Continent<ref name=HOKp139/> * McKenna: Continent<ref name=HOKp139/> * Minsk Mountains<ref name=RoHcP>''Roar of Honor'', Prologue</ref> * Newark Swamp: A swampland north of Bearcat.<ref name=BoIc3/> * Novy Terra: Continent<ref name=HOKp139/> * Roth Plains:<ref name=BoIc11>''Betrayal of Ideals'', ch. 11</ref> }} ===Industrial Centers=== * [[Bear's Den]] * [[Strana Mechty 'Mech Production Facility Beta]] * [[Strana Mechty Mechworks]]<ref name=HOKp164>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 164</ref><ref name=HOKp166>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 166</ref><ref name=HOKp172>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 172</ref> * [[Strana Mechty Shipyards]] * [[Upsilon Plant 2J]] (from [[3002]])<ref name="TRO:CIp28">''Technical Readout: Clan Invasion'', p. 28: "Dragonfly"</ref> * [[Wolf Clan Site]] ===Local Fauna=== * [[Diamond Shark (species)]] * [[Ghost Bear (species)]]<ref name=HOKp121>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 121</ref> * [[Mechtian Enslaver]]<ref>''Vector''</ref> * [[Sea Fox]]<ref name=HOKp129>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 129</ref> * [[Smoke Jaguar (species)]] * [[Snow Raven (species)]] * [[Strana Mechty Wolf]]<ref name=HOKp106>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 106</ref> * [[Wolverine (species)]] ==Map Gallery== <div class="system-map-gallery"></div> ==Nearby Systems== <!-- NOTE: This table is automatically generated by BattleTechWiki:Project_Planets/Mapping, and any edits to this section may be overwritten at any time by a bot --> {|class="wikitable nearby-systems" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" !
