== Planetary History ==

=== Star League ===
 +
Prior to the Fall of the Star League, Tantara was the headquarters world of the [[Star League Defense Force]]s [[LVII Corps (Star League)]] and [[12th Jump Infantry Division]].  The local population was against having the [[SLDF]] forces on world and protests numbering in the thousands of civilians were common.<ref>Field Manual: SLDF, p. 93, "12th Jump Infantry Division"</ref>

==Tantara==
+
Tantara's second moon, Kalinda, served as the homeport of the [[6th Fleet (SLDF)]] of the Star League Navy. While there were naval offices on Tantara itself, they were minor.  It was not uncommon to have one or more squadrons of warships in-system.<ref>Field Manual: SLDF, p. 94, "Homeport"</ref>
−
===Planetary Description===
 
−
Tantara was an important logistical and command hub for the [[SLDF]] and later the [[St. Ives Compact]].  It has at least two moons, one of which was known as Kalinda which has extensive habitation.<ref>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 93: "12th Jump Infantry Division"</ref><ref>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 94: "Homeport"</ref>

In [[2990]], a subterranean Star League era supply depot was discovered on Tantara's antarctic shelf.  The [[BattleMech]]s, largely [[Goliath]]s, found in storage there were used to reform the [[Fifth Capellan Chargers]].<ref name=HLTCC90>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 90:"Cochraine's Goliaths"</ref>

====Capellan-St. Ives War====
 
−
Tantara was an important world that suffered heavy fighting during the [[Capellan-St. Ives War]].  However, available information on the timeline of the fighting is confused or contradictory.  Using the best guess with the info available, [[House Dai Da Chi]], reinforced by the [[Renshield's Dragoons]], would take the vital logistic world of Tantara from the [[St. Ives Compact]] defenders, [[2nd St. Ives Lancers]], [[2nd St. Ives Sentinels]] and [[Group W]], in [[3062]].  Later, House Dai Da Chi and Renshield's Dragoons would be moved off world as the [[5th Confederation Reserve Cavalry]] took over the garrisoning of Tantara.  In [[3063]], the St. Ives Compact would later retake the world when the [[1st Janissaries]] attacked.  Then an unknown Capellan force would retake Tantara and finally drive off the Compact troops for good.<ref name=FM:CC80>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 90:"Renshield's Dragoons: Celestial Favor"</ref><ref name=FM:CC109>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 109:"Marcella's Armored Infantry: The Awakened"</ref><ref name=FM:CC111>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 111:"1st Janissaries: The Pride of Tantara"</ref><ref name=FM:MS36>''Field Manual: Mercenaries Supplemental'', p. 36:"Group W: Lightning Warriors"</ref>

While the above information is not confirmed, the seizure of Tantara by the Capellans is credited as spurring the first peace talks between the combatants that would end the conflict.<ref name=FM:CC80/>
