I was given this sentence:
ここが、きみの クラスだから。
The explanation I was given is that the から at the end is used when giving information. What is the だ used for? What are other examples of だから usage?

「から」 used to indicate a cause or reason must follow a verb or adjective. 「だ」 is the copula 「である」, which binds the noun it follows with the causative particle「で」 and the existence/possession verb 「ある」 in order to turn the noun into a verb clause. |

だis just a copula. Nothing special. What is special is the usage ofから, and you should have asked about that. – sawa Dec 20 '11 at 22:13
