[edit] History
Settled in 2253, Taurus was named after Samantha Calderon's second husband, Victor Taurens, who had perished during the initial penetration of the Hyades Cluster. Taurus quickly proved to be rich in natural resources, including a soil that quickly adapted to the introduction of Terran crops. Taurus itself is surrounded by a thick natural barrier of asteroids, seeded with mines and laser cannon emplacements, and host to elements of the Taurian Guard, the elite battalion of the Taurian Defense Force. Taurus is also home to a variety of industries, many of which produce 'Mechs and spare parts. As the nexus of the Concordat social system, Taurus is one of the few cultural centers in the Periphery and presently supports a population of over 2 billion inhabitants.
