Vault 116 is located in the Columbia Commonwealth about 20 miles from the Capitol wasteland it was the home of Lachlan Hoffmann and many other Vault residents.
Background
The main objective of Vault 116 was to be a "control group" similar to Vault 13.
Vaults Opening and Current Status
In the year 2276 January the 11th the vault door was opened by the Enclave even though the overseer was informed about this and told to round the citizens up he thought it was a group of "wastelanders" that somehow found out how to open vaults. So he rounded up the vault's security forces and robots to defend the vault from the "attack" no only two Enclave personnel were killed most of the vault security died or surrendered and the overseer was killed by Lachlan Hoffmann after he shot both of his parents dead when they shut down the security system. The surviving citizens of the vault were assimilated into the Enclave as soldiers scientists and citizens. The Vault is currently being used as a "safe house" for members of the Enclave High Command.
