Kesai IV is a dry, barren world with a single sea. In the more temperate climate along the coasts forests are growing. The planet has only limited mineral resources and no native life.
 +
 
 +
===History===
 +
Kesai IV was settled after the discovery of several deposits of radioactive minerals. When the deposits proved to be smaller than expected, only few settlers remained. Thereafter world was used as a prison planet until the [[Star League]] purchased the rights to use the planet as a depot for the [[SLDF]] from [[House Davion]].
 +
 
 +
The League built a vast complex of warehouses, factories, maintenance facilities, and DropShip pads around the planet's sea and stationed troops there. Although the [[SLDF]] stripped Kesai of most of its supplies prior to their departure to the [[Periphery]], the remaining facilities and their inventory were still incredibly valuable for the [[Successor States]]. [[McKinnon's Company]] of the [[SLDF]] stationed there, refused to retreat, pledged their support for [[House Davion]] and defended the complex against a superior [[DCMS]] force in the First Battle of Kesai in December [[2786]].
 +
 
 +
Since the outbreak of the [[Succession Wars]] Kesai has been attacked countless times and most cities and forest burned down resembling the surrounding wasteland. Nevertheless, the depot remained a major source of supplies for the [[AFFS]].  
 +
 
 +
In [[3065]] the [[Draconis Combine]] finally succeeded to conquer the planet in the course of their reprisal attackes for the [[Draconis March]] invasion during the [[FedCom Civil War]].

Template:InfoBoxStarSystem (References to Kesai IV)

Kesai is a system on the border between the Federated Suns and the Draconis Combine near the Periphery. Its world Kesai IV is an infertile desert planet which is the site of a major Star League supply depot.

Geography

Kesai IV is a dry, barren world with a single sea. In the more temperate climate along the coasts forests are growing. The planet has only limited mineral resources and no native life.

History

Kesai IV was settled after the discovery of several deposits of radioactive minerals. When the deposits proved to be smaller than expected, only few settlers remained. Thereafter world was used as a prison planet until the Star League purchased the rights to use the planet as a depot for the SLDF from House Davion.

The League built a vast complex of warehouses, factories, maintenance facilities, and DropShip pads around the planet's sea and stationed troops there. Although the SLDF stripped Kesai of most of its supplies prior to their departure to the Periphery, the remaining facilities and their inventory were still incredibly valuable for the Successor States. McKinnon's Company of the SLDF stationed there, refused to retreat, pledged their support for House Davion and defended the complex against a superior DCMS force in the First Battle of Kesai in December 2786.

Since the outbreak of the Succession Wars Kesai has been attacked countless times and most cities and forest burned down resembling the surrounding wasteland. Nevertheless, the depot remained a major source of supplies for the AFFS.

In 3065 the Draconis Combine finally succeeded to conquer the planet in the course of their reprisal attackes for the Draconis March invasion during the FedCom Civil War.
