| The home planet of the [[Saiyans]] which was destroyed by [[Freeza]] in [[Age 737]]. Prior to the coming of the Saiyans, the planet had been known variously as '''Planet Plant''' or '''Planet Tsufru''' by its original inhabitants. The history of Planet Vegeta is at times ambiguous with multiple explanations given for its conquest by the Saiyans and its eventual destruction. Some of the ambiguities, such as the planet being destroyed by a meteor or by its own [[God (role)|God]] may have been deliberate propaganda planted by Freeza's empire to keep the remaining Saiyans in line.

| ==General Overview==
| |
|
| |
| In the distant past, Planet Vegeta was known as Planet Plant, the home of the peaceful [[Tsufruians]] (or their predecessors). The planet is attacked by the space pirate [[Chilled]], but the peaceful natives are saved by [[Bardock]] who had been somehow thrown back in time during the planet's destruction. In his rage, Bardock transformed into a [[Super Saiyan]], perhaps starting the story of the "Legendary Super Saiyan" that would be well-known by Freeza and the latter-day Saiyans.<ref>{{Cite magazine|Mag=VJ|Year=2011|Date=August 2011|Title=Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock – Part 1}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine|Mag=VJ|Year=2011|Date=October 2011|Title=Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock – Part 3}}</ref><ref>{{Cite manga|Chp=280}}</ref>

| Over time, the Tsufruians become an advanced civilization. Around Age 550, a wandering group of Saiyans arrive at the planet and are welcomed by the Tsufruians. The origins of these Saiyans are unknown. In the decades that followed, the Saiyans learned from their neighbors and became more intelligent, while the Tsufruians developed technologies suitable for warfare including [[scouter|scouters]], tanks, and laser-weapons. The Saiyans also became more violent.<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite episode|Series=GT|Eps=27}}</ref><ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="World Guide IV: Saiya and Tsufru Chapter"|Book=16|Page=pp. 74-76}}</ref>

|
| |
| By the early 700s, the Saiyans remained the minority species on the planet and tensions were high. Some Saiyans felt that the Tsufruians treated them like slaves, while the Tsufruians were concerned about their neighbors' increasingly violent nature. A Saiyan leader named [[King Vegeta|Vegeta]] rose up and led a rebellion against the majority Tsufruian population of the planet, led by [[King Tsufru]]. The Tsufruians fought using advanced weaponry, while the Saiyans had their natural battle power.<ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="World Guide IV: Saiya and Tsufru Chapter"|Book=16|Page=pp. 74-76}}</ref><ref>FIXME: Cite PtEtS</ref> The tide of the battle is turned when a once-every-eight-year full moon appears over the planet, enabling the Saiyan warriors to fight as [[Great Ape|Great Apes]]. In these final days, the Tsufruians launch two emergency solutions. First, [[Dr. Raichi]] creates [[Hatch-Hyack]], a “hatred-amplification device” he intends to use as a weapon to eradicate the Saiyans. He is killed before he succeeds and the device is launched into space with his corpse inside.<ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="The Birth of God and the Prosperity of the Saiyans"|Book=13|Page=pp. 16-17}}</ref><ref>FIXME: Cite PtEtS</ref> Tsufruian scientists also create a parasitic life form based on King Tsufru's genes and blasted off into space. This parasite would eventually become the villan [[Baby]].<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite episode|Series=GT|Eps=27}}</ref> Ultimately, the Tsufruians are defeated and Vegeta appoints himself "King" over the newly-renamed Planet Vegeta.<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=20}}</ref><ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="fix"|Book=7|Page=pp. 122}}</ref>

|
| |
| In their newly conquered lands, the Saiyans developed a class-base system based on potential battle power at birth, with children sorted into categories such as "Elite" or "Low-Level".<ref>FIXME: SEG Character Guide</ref> They also adopt Tsufruian technologies such as the scouter, although Saiyan scientists make their own advances such as the creation of the [[Saibaimen]], living weapons that could be sprouted from seeds.<ref>FIXME: "Toriyama's memo on the Saibaimen"</ref> Quickly however, Saiyan technological and cultural progress stagnates. They elect to become mercenaries, heading out into space to fight and gain new wealth and technologies.<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=20}}</ref>

| In Age 731, almost immediately after their triumph over the Tsufruians, the Saiyans and Planet Vegeta are annexed into [[Freeza]]'s empire. He rules over them by force and intimidation.<ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="The Birth of God and the Prosperity of the Saiyans"|Book=13|Page=pp. 16-17}}</ref><ref>FIXME: SEG Character Guide</ref> King Vegeta's son, [[Vegeta|Prince Vegeta]], is forced to do work for his new overlord. In the years that follow, there is almost continual unrest among the Saiyans as they chafe under their new overlord.<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=17}}</ref><ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="The Birth of God and the Prosperity of the Saiyans"|Book=13|Page=pp. 16-17}}</ref>

|
| |
| Only six years later, Freeza decides to annihilate the Saiyans, ether due to instructions from [[Beerus]]<ref>FIXME DBS</ref>, concerns that Saiyans as a group could come to defeat him, or a combination of both. He and his men briefly face a pair of uprisings led by [[King Vegeta]]<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=78}}</ref> and [[Bardock]]<ref>Bardock special</ref>. Neither represent a threat and Planet Vegeta is destroyed. Only a small number of Saiyans survived due to being off-world: Prince Vegeta, [[Nappa]], [[Raditz]], and [[Son Goku]]. (In movie continuities, [[Tullece]], [[Paragus]], [[Broli]], and [[Tarble]] also survived the planet's destruction. In the [[Episode of Bardock]] special, Bardock survived by being catapulted backwards in time.) In order to keep the remaining Saiyans loyal, Freeza spreads the story that the planet was destroyed by a meteor.<ref>{{Cite manga|Chp=247}}</ref>

| Despite its small size, the planet had 10 times the gravity of Earth. It also had a moon whose orbit only made it full once every eight years.
