Torch is a planet in the Honorverse a fictional universe found in David Weber's books about Honor Harrington. Torch (then popularly called Congo, though its Manpower Inc owners preferred Verdant Vista) was established by Manpower Inc as an industrial planet, that specialized in manufacturing pharmaceuticals from plants in the tropical rain forest covering the planet. Its workforce consisted almost entirely of genetic slaves. It was captured by the Audubon Ballroom with support from elements of the Royal Manticoran Navy, the Solarian League Navy, the Erewhonese government, and the Republic of Haven. On the advice of W.E.B. Du Havel, himself an ex-slave and Nobel-Shakria winning political scientist, it became a monarchy with Berry Zilwicki as its first Queen.
