[3132] The terrestrial planet of Mara was settled in the early age of colonial expansion, after it was recognized for
the pleasant agricultural world it could be. Though industrial metals may be found in small veins—particularly
among the remote Northern Isles and on the small south-polar continent of Naramo—the fertile, wooded lands
and freshwater lakes on Appilagio, the planet’s large main continent, are the source of almost all the planet’s
industry.

Much of the logging industry, for one of Mara’s chief exports, is focused around the Great Rim—site of a long-
ago asteroid impact on Appilagio. The majority of Mara’s settlements are concentrated inland of the Great Rim
area, near these logging operations, in a temperate region of plains and large lakes that in many ways resembles
the climate of Terra’s European-Mediterranean region.

The planetary capital city of Terrace is located on the northern Broomstick Plains, roughly forty kilometers inland
of the Great Rim, near the smaller coastal city of Mountlake, which is itself home to Hara-Maku Enterprises,
owners of Mara’s largest commercial fishing fleet. Hara-Maku’s operations, which focus mainly on harvesting the
delicate freshwater Mara Trout, found in many of Appilagio’s inland seas, lakes, and rivers, accounts for most of
the planet’s secondary food-export industry. The spaceport city of Lockholme, located in the southern peninsula
of Appilagio, is also home to Mara Development Corporation, a construction equipment company that specializes
in the manufacture of both Forestry and Construction ’Mech designs.

[3132] Mara was originally part of the Federated Suns until the creation of The Republic. Mara became part of
Prefecture III under the control of The Republic. After the fall of the HPG Network Fortress Republic was
created and many of the worlds under its control were set free.
[3135] Mara was released from the control of The Republic.

After being released from The Republic, Mara fell under the influence of the Dieron territory.
