'''Casbah''' was the capital city of the human colony world [[Tribute]] in the [[Epsilon Eridani System]]. Casbah, like the rest of Tribute, was cold in comparison to [[Earth]], featuring icy temperatures in June. It was a well developed city, with highways, spaceports, a [[MagLev Train]] system, and high-rise office buildings, as well as at least one [[Jim Dandy]] restaurant<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 14''</ref>.

Tribute was a site of ongoing resistance from [[Insurrectionist]] forces in [[2524]] during [[Operation: TREBUCHET]], and so a [[battalion]] of [[UNSC]] [[marines]] were operating in and around Casbah that year, searching for Insurrectionist bomb makers, supported by the [[corvette]] {{UNSCShip|Bum Rush}} and [[Hornet]] aircraft. They found one such bomb shop, and though they were able to neutralize the facility, the marines were unable to prevent some of the bombs from making their way into Casbah, which lead to a disastrous hostage situation inside one of the Jim Dandy restaurants, resulting in the deaths of 3 marines, 38 civilians, and 2 rebels<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 20''</ref>.
