'''Baran''' is A fecund world of rolling blue oceans expansive forrests and rolling steppe land. It was originally an [[Eldar]] exodite world, but was conqured by the [[ork]]s of Waaag Arbuttz late [[M39M40]]. by 224.[[M41]] an Imperial crusade passed over the world with the intention of liberating it from its Ork overlords.
The first assaults quickly established the Impeial forces as masters of the steppelands. The feral ork tribes fled to the hinterlands. General Von Paulus, commanding General of the Imperial forces, lacked the troops to threaten one area without exposing another, So he had a system of fortifications set up to contain the Orks instead. As settlers began to arrive, these fortified positions became the basis for Imperial cities. Cities with a curious blend of Civilian structures and millitary fortifications. As generations passed the original conquering regiment died away and was replaced by home grown PDF forces. and eventally these regiments were inducted into the Imperial guard as the [[Baran Seige Masters]]
