Ishtar IV

Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard

Ishtar IV - more commonly known simply as Ishtar - is the fourth planet in the system.[1]

Planetary History

Ishtar was settled in 2320 and was one of the earliest worlds settled within Flannagan's Nebulea.[4] Ishtar was perhaps the principal agricultural world of the Taurian Concordat. It holds the distinction of being the only undefended world in the Concordat; the planet was deliberately demilitarized in an effort to make it less attractive to raiders and pirates. As late as the end of the Third Succession War there were no ComStar facilities or any heavy industry on the planet, whose primary exports were foodstuffs and related goods. The highest technology located on Ishtar was that used to make some of the best wines in the Taurian Concordat.[1]
