'''Lübeck''' is one of the systems that form a part of the [[Deep Periphery]] nation known as the [[Hanseatic League]].<ref name="FR:Pp24"/> There are at least two worlds in the Lübeck system not inimical to human life; Lübeck and Quarantine. Quarantine is located one place beyond Lübeck in the system, and is a world that has been subject to extensive impacts from asteroids or comets at least twice during its history, leaving large numbers of craters, marked themselves by further craters. Other than the craters, Quarantine's most distinctive features are the tawny deserts found on the world. A traveler to Quarantine in [[3065]] described Quarantine as a world of "wind and silence, dust and time". Quarantine was distant enough from the system primary that the sun was visible during the day as a watery-yellow white pinprick. The Hansa used Quarantine as a quarantine world for those wishing to travel to Lübeck; visitors were required to first register for permission to visit Lübeck through a Customs and Inspection complex located in Quarantine City on Quarantine via a hugely time-consuming and bureaucratic process.<ref name="Ap15">''Ambrosia'', p. 15-21</ref>

===Planetary History===
 
By [[3140]], Lübeck V was considered one of the most developed worlds in the Hanseatic League, second only to the nation's capital [[Bremen (HL)|Bremen]]. It was one of the League's three open worlds to traders and tourists, and had long been home to numerous powerful merchant families, many of whom held seats on the [[Council of Merchants]].
 
 
====Hanseatic Crusade====
 
During [[Escorpión Imperio]]'s takeover of the Hanseatic League, [[Seeker Galaxy (Escorpión Imperio)|Seeker Galaxy]] landed on Lübeck V as part of Wave 3 on 11 April [[3140]].<ref name=OTP:HCp31/> Facing only minimal resistance in the form of the militia and merchant private security, the world fell in just days.<ref name=OTP:HCp11>''Operational Turning Points: Hanseatic Crusade'', p. 11: "Wave 3"</ref> After being alerted of the invaders by fleeing merchants, [[Captain-Marshal of the Hanseatic Defense Force|Captain-Marshal]] [[Rudolf Schmidt]] led a counterattack with [[Regional Defense Force 1]] and [[Convoy Defense Force|Convoy Defense Force 1]] on 30 April.<ref name=OTP:HCp31/> They crushed the Fourth Scorpion Seekers quickly due to surprise and sheer numbers, and continued the fight against Seeker Galaxy by employing blistering flanking and envelopment attacks, always striking where the Seekers did not anticipate. Seeker withdrew from Lübeck and linked up with [[Hellion Galaxy (Escorpión Imperio)|Hellion Galaxy]] on [[Bruges]]. It was the first major victory for the Hansa against the Clan, but left the world with shattered cities, incinerated forests, and ruined farmland.<ref name=OTP:HCp12-16/>
 
 
After the fall of Bremen in October 3140, the remaining Hanseatic League systems would surrender or be conquered by April 3141.<ref name=OTP:HCp13b>''Operational Turning Points: Hanseatic Crusade'', p. 13: "Wave 5 - Mopping Up"</ref>
 
 
===Geography===
 
Lübeck V was a manufacturing hub due to its impressive mineralogical resources such as germanium and silicon.<ref name=OTP:HCp3/>
