Owner History

Planetary Info

Alioth's most distinctive feature is its atmosphere, which can best be described as "hyper-oxygenated." Though a young planet geologically, the high oxygen content and periodic bursts of radiation from the system's star allowed plant life to flourish on the world. As a result Alioth quickly became one of the Terran Hegemony's breadbasket worlds,[1] and was a part of the Hegemony's Tyrfing Province.[7] During the prosperity of the Star League Alioth became a tourist destination as well.[1]

The Succession Wars changed that. Though the world was claimed by the Lyran Commonwealth, its position on the Lyran/Free Worlds League border meant that it saw a great deal of combat. The farms and fields that were once so plentiful quickly stopped producing a surplus of food. Instead the world just managed to feed itself and the soldiers who landed here. The increase in hostilities shut down the tourist trade, further depressing the local economy. It wasn't until the world was gifted to the Republic of the Sphere that things changed. The tourist attractions reopened, and the fertile grasslands were once again converted to farmland.[1]
