== Planetary History ==
Asturias was first settled along with its sister worlds around [[2388]] by Spanish and Portuguese colonists seeking freedom from the [[Terran Hegemony]]. In [[2392]] it became one of the founding worlds of Nueva Castile, and by the mid-[[twenty-sixth century]] was populated by a repressive feudal society.<ref name="TTS:Vp4/>

Between [[2830]] and [[2855]], the rest of the Castilian worlds were conquered by the newly-arrived [[Umayyad Caliphate]]. Asturias was spared the same fate due to an outbreak of infighting among the invaders, allowing the Asturians to capture and reverse engineer an Umayyad [[BattleMech]]. Within months BattleMech-equipped Asturian forces went on the offensive and reclaimed León and Castile, beginning a two-century reconquista that would eventually see the Umayyads driven back to Córdoba and Granada by [[3058]]. Asturias served as Nueva Castile's capital during this period.<ref name="ECp58"/><ref name="FR:Pp24"/>

===Goliath Scorpion raids and conquest===
In [[3080]], Nueva Castile was invaded by Clan Goliath Scorpion, who had been [[Trial of Abjuration|Abjured]] by the other [[Clan|Clans]] within the [[Clan Homeworlds]]. The Goliath Scorpions were in urgent need of resources following the loss of all of their holdings in the Homeworlds, and had raided a number of worlds within the region in the preceding decade. Having planned for an invasion of Nueva Castile at some point, the Abjuration of the Goliath Scorpions precipitated an immediate invasion, but once conquering both the Castilian Principalities and the Umayyad Caliphate the Goliath Scorpions then attempted to integrate the three disparate nations into a single new nation, the Escorpión Imperio.<ref name="WoRp158"/> The Goliath Scorpions established the capital of the Escorpión Imperio at [[Granada]].<ref name="WoRp158"/>
