The capital of the Lanth Subsector and an important military site as well as an administrative center, being close to both the Sword Worlds Confederation and Zhodani Consulate.

Lanth is a non-industrial world separated from the majority of its subsector by the Abyss, and is only accessible through Lunion Subsector or by jump-4. While this is not very important to naval or some scout vessels, its location has a significant impact on trade.

During the Fifth Frontier War Lanth was subject to a surprise attack by the Sword Worlds on 190-1107. Fierce planetary fighting was followed by a brief occupation by Sword World forces. In the course of the war the Imperial 100th Fleet and the Sword Worlds Gram Fleet fought a series of battles for control of the system, which culminated in Imperial victory on 094-1109. Planetary fighting continued until the last Sword Worlds elements were defeated on 241-1109.
