The birthplace of the Jaffa, according to legend, which also says Dakara was the site of the first Prim'tah ritual where their enslavement emerged. The planet is deep within Baal's former territory, making a claim to the planet tactically unsound. He kept a number of Ha'taks in range of the world to guard it from such an incursion.
Dakara is the first landing place of the Alterrans in the Milkyway Galaxy after they fled their home galaxy, & is also location of an Ancient superweapon monument that once gave a rebirth to life in this galaxy following the devastation of a great plague that had swept through. A Stargate lies at the base of this monument, & when the device is properly reprogrammed it would allow the energy field to pass through and spread to all of the gates in the Milky Way. The humanoid Replicator copy of Samantha Carter wished to destroy the device, knowing it could be reprogrammed to eliminate all Replicator forces in the galaxy (which it eventually did). The Goa'uld Anubis wished to use this weapon to rebuild the galaxy to his own specifications.
Teal'c believed the key to bringing Jaffa together, both by a strategic position & an example of their strength, was to capture the planet & hold it in the name of Free Jaffa. After a long & bloody campaign they managed to fend off Goa'uld & Replicator forces & maintain the world for themselves. Jaffa from across the galaxy arrived on Dakara to make it their home & commence the establishment of a democratic government.
During the Holy Crusade by the Orii Worshippers to convert the Milkyway Galaxy to Origin, Dakara - along with the Ancient super weapon - was decimated by the Orici & her forces, leaving the Jaffa without a centre of government & a fractured people once more.
With the Holy Crusade eventually stopped, & with Baal & all other significant Goa'uld defeated, the Free Jaffa continue to inhabit Dakara, building structures of stone & a strong society that hopes to spread into the rest of the galaxy; slowly but surely re-building from the ruins of war as once again take their place in the galaxy at large. . .
