Where Can I Find Lore?

Having finally convinced myself that I didn't need to pay attention to reality anyways, I have started playing this game.
While I used to play the older pc games and own quite a few books, I don't really remember the faction indentities. I'm sure there's a site out there filled with plenty of lore, could someone drop me a link?
Thanks in advance,
Tarlan

Here's a very basic lore.
Inner Sphere, events leading to the creation of the Clans.
Development and return of the Clans.
Sarna is also a great resource, but often only if you know what you're wanting to find.
Far as the individual factions, gimme a bit.

While I am able to read german, it takes effort and time, so thanks for the offer Kotzi, but I'll pass. With this information at my fingertips, I shall soon be able to decide who, if anyone, shall receive my loyalty

Free app, and it can export record sheets to PDF format. It's handy for the weekly TT games I try to do, means I don't need to lug around 20+ pounds of books.

If no House or Clan deserves your loyalty, there is always the almighty C-bill....

You, my friend, have blown my mind. My brothers and I have been into MechWarrior for 15 years and played the Clix game but we only got into Classic Battletech within the last two years and have been pretty slow to move onto more advanced rules. We only have the Total Warfare rulebook but want to start using more advanced mechs with advanced systems (Great Turtle with Hardened Armor, Shen Yi with stealth armor, Patriot with Arrow IV, etc). This app is blowing all that wide open with access to everything. Thank you, sir!

Very welcome.
My mech of choice is a WHM-6Rb (in the app it's referred to as a WHM-6Db), I've been into TT for going on 20 years now, but it's nice to have access to everything.
