The Sara System is a planetary system of the Fringe Worlds. Its primary is a yellow star,[1] the system features the planets of Mar Sara and Chau Sara[2] and it has an asteroid belt.

The system and its two habitable worlds, Chau Sara and Mar Sara, were catalogued by terran freelance prospectors and Tarsonians began colonization several years later before the Guild Wars. Both worlds shared virtually the same orbital path and rich potential for mineral exploitation. However, the backwater Mar Sara was overshadowed by the more prosperous Chau Sara.[3][2]

The system was abandoned by terrans following the incineration of Chau Sara and Mar Sara by the protoss and the collapse of the Terran Confederacy. Prospectors from the Kel-Morian Combine were drawn back to the system after discovering the minerals on Mar Sara had acquired unique properties from the protoss bombardment, and shortly afterwards the Combine claimed salvage rights to the entire system. Independent and indentured contractors began strip-mining both planets.[3]

In the wake of the Combine the Terran Dominion began showing renewed interest in the Sara system and established several outposts there. The Combine claimed the Dominion presence was at the invitation of the Combine due to security issues with piracy and mining camp revolts.[3]
