Tarsus is a rich garden world located within Capella Subsector of the Solomani Rim. The system is a member of the Solomani Confederation.

Tarsus is nominally a colony of Sequoyah (Solomani Rim 1337), but with almost complete self-rule. The losing faction in the Sequoyan civil war of -200 settled on Tarsus, establishing a more traditional representative democracy there. Relations between the two worlds are presently cordial.

Non-Canon

After a global conflict on Sequoyah (-1997), the losing factions colonized Tarsus (Solomani Rim 1136), a rich world ripe for exploitation. Tarsus operates its own governmental structure, but is primarily supported by Sequoyah. To this day, Tarsus prefers to keep its colony status rather than severing ties with its motherworld.
