A world long associated with piracy and lawlessness, Tortuga Prime has found new life as the capital world of the Tortuga Republic.  Since the formation of the republic  Tortuga Prime has been transformed by an influx of new heavy industry, agricultural development and immigration of Inner Sphere settlers.

Tortuga Prime is a high temperature world with an extensive belt of deserts and 'badlands'.  The bulk of the population and industry is located in the much more habitable northern and southern temperate zones.
