Planetary History
Colonization
Babylon is a dry world and was initially unpopular with League settlers when they first established their colony in 2786.[7] Early settlers ended up being struck down by what was called the "Babylon Plague", which consisted of pathogens and germs in the atmosphere. When colonists moved to more of the arid lands, they discovered the arachnid Goliath Scorpion. The Goliath Scorpions had attacked many of colonists with their deadly poisons when their nests were disturbed.[8]
The League established a Large Naval cache for decommissioned SLDF WarShips, the largest in the Pentagon Worlds.[9]
Operation Klondike
The 4 Clans assigned to liberate Babylon during Operation Klondike were Clan Sea Fox, Clan Ice Hellion, Clan Coyote, and Clan Cloud Cobra.
