History[]
Ragesh IIII is the third planet closest to the star of Ragesh in the Ragesh star system. Ragesh III was the site of a Centauri agricultural colony in the year 2258. Years earlier, the planet was controlled by the Narns, sworn enemies of the Centauri. In February of 2258, the Narns exited a jump point and executed an unprovoked sneak attack against the colony, swaming in with wave after wave of Narn heavy cruisers and Frazi-class heavy freighters. When news of this reached Centauri Prime, they decided that the colony world was too remote and insignificant to warrant retaliation. Centauri ambassador Londo Mollari however, felt differently; particularly because his nephew Carn Mollari was serving about the Ragesh III research station. Enraged, he openly declared, "Blood cries out for blood". (B5: Midnight on the Firing Line)
