History
Recorded History
This article needs additional citations for verification. |
Talitha, one of the Terran Hegemony's core worlds, was heavily fortified by Amaris' forces following the Amaris Coup. Following the capture of the Rim Worlds Republic by General Kerensky, a concerted effort to push into the Hegemony through three simultaneous thrusts was begun, with Talitha on the path of one of those thrusts. Talitha's industry and population suffered heavily from nuclear attacks by retreating Amaris forces.
It was the headquarters of the SLDF 8th Army.
