===Rasalhague Military District===
+
The creation of the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] from the [[Draconis Combine]]'s former [[Rasalhague Military District]] left a band of planets that became the heart of the [[Alshain Military District]]. Ruled by the planet [[Alshain]], this District is a long, thin region bordering the new Republic. It consists of the twenty ''Rasalhague'' worlds that the Combine did not surrender to the FRR, plus ten worlds from the Buckminster Province. The Alshain District is divided into three Prefectures named for their capitals: [[Buckminster]], [[Garstedt]], and [[Rubigen]].
Once the [[Principality of Rasalhague]] the '''Rasalhague Military District''' formed part of the border between the [[Draconis Combine]] and the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].
 
  
After the death of [[Warlord]] [[Ivan Sorenson]] and the formation of the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] in [[3034]], the remains of this district left to the Combine formed the heart of the new [[Alshain Military District]].<ref>''Heir to the Dragon'', p. ??</ref>

The first district Governor was [[Hassid Ricol]], who secured the position by providing the Combine with a copy of the [[Helm Memory Core]]. <ref>''Heir to the Dragon''</ref>
The creation of the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] from most of the [[Draconis Combine]]'s former [[Rasalhague Military District]] left a long, thin band of twenty ''Rasalhague'' worlds that the Combine did not surrender bordering the new Republic. With the addition to ten worlds ceded from the Buckminster Province this region became the heart of the [[Alshain Military District]]. Ruled by the planet [[Alshain]], divided into three Prefectures named for their capitals: [[Buckminster]], [[Garstedt]], and [[Rubigen]].

The reshuffling of Combine assets into the new prefecture allowed [[Theodore Kurita]] to staff the region with many political allies, including Duke [[Hassid Ricol]], formerly of [[Verthandi]]. The Duke was named Governor in [[3034]], directly after the Combine recognized the FRR.

During the [[Clan Invasion]], most of this District was lost to the Combine to [[Clan Ghost Bear]].
The reconquest of Alshain and the other worlds lost to the Bears become a key vindication of the Kurita traditionalists.
 
However, Theodore Kurita never allowed their forces to attack. When the [[Black Dragon Society]] managed to send the [[Alshain Avengers]] four regiments to strike Alshain, it was a total failure: not only were all the attacking forces annihilated: also triggered the [[First Combine-Dominion War]].<ref name=ACtA04>''Test of Vengaence'' p. 14-21</ref><ref>''Path of Glory'''', p. 261</ref>
