| − | After it was colonized | + | After it was colonized Oberon VI became a valued member of the Rim Worlds Republic and the people of the planet saw with horror the end of their parent nation. Therefore they pledged to continue the Republic's traditions and together with the neighboring worlds of [[Sigurd]] and [[Crellacor]] founded the [[Oberon Confederation]] in [[2775]]. But the tiny alliance suffered from the downfall of technology and numerous pirate attacks and two decades after it's inception the ill-fated Confederation was unable to exist any further.<ref name=HB:MPS>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 37, "The Republic-Commonwealth War"</ref> |

They chose the lost planet as a new home, started to recruit bandits and to raid the neighboring systems. |
At around this time, early mining efforts caused an ecological disaster which led to famine on Oberon VI. The [[JàrnFòlk]] (the Jespersen clan) brought food at cost to Oberon VI in this time which established trade connections that lasted until 2972. In that year, Oberon VI began another attempt at developing and industrializing their world and exploit its natural resources. In this endeavor, the [[Hanseatic League]] undercut the JàrnFòlk prices for goods and long-term services, allegedly because they would use slave labor and the JàrnFòlk would not.<ref name=GB/> | At around this time, early mining efforts caused an ecological disaster which led to famine on Oberon VI.

He was not satisfied with a life as mere bandit king and in [[3012]] rekindled the [[Oberon Confederation]] as a viable state.
