Rannoch (Khelish name that means "Walled Garden") is the first planet in the Tikkun system of the Perseus Veil cluster, and the homeworld of the quarian race and geth species. Once the capital of the Old Republic of Rannoch, Rannoch was known as the home of music and the art of dancing; two things the quarians excelled at. Rannoch was a popular tourist attraction for asari, who appreciated what the quarians had to offer in terms of their culture, music and artistic abilities. However, Rannoch also served as the birth place of the synthetic geth race, who later rebelled and exiled the quarians from Rannoch after the First Morning War. After three hundred years, the quarians returned to wage war on the geth; a war that ended in a peaceful resolution. Following the Reaper War, the quarians and geth formed a unified government, replacing the Provisional Conclave with the Republic of Rannoch in 2188 CE. Rannoch fell into disarray during the Dominion Civil War, but after the Dominion collapsed, the planet returned to joint quarian-geth control, and would later become a core world of the Unified Republics of the Milky Way in 2255 CE.
