Tau Ceti IV was a planet in the Tau Ceti system, and home to one of Earth's oldest extra-solar colonies. Its capital was the city of Amber. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan; ENT novel: Kobayashi Maru)
During the Earth-Romulan War in 2156, it was the site of a major battle between the Coalition of Planets and the Romulan Star Empire. Coalition forces were defeated, and the Romulans occupied the planet, completely annihilating the human colony. (ENT novel: Beneath the Raptor's Wing, Tower of Babel)
At some point following the war, the colony was re-established. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
