Alioth II - more commonly known simply as Alioth - is the second planet in the Alioth system and has a single moon anmed Galyana.<ref name=DARW173/>

== Planetary History ==
 +
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,<ref name=DARW173/> and was a part of the Hegemony's [[Tyrfing Province]].<ref name="H:RWp159"/> During the prosperity of the [[Star League]] Alioth became a tourist destination as well.<ref name=DARW173/>

The [[Succession Wars (History)|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.<ref name=DARW173/>

Alioth is a star system with four planets, one of which - Alioth II - is habitable, and as at 3145 Alioth was a part of the Wolf Empire.[2][3]

System History

The Alioth system was settled during the First Exodus from Terra.[4]

Alioth II

Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Alioth II - more commonly known simply as Alioth - is the second planet in the Alioth system and has a single moon anmed Galyana.[1]

Planetary History

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.[5] 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]

By 3039, Alioth has been famous for its sun guava fruit for centuries, apparently a major export item. It also features a notable population of Exituri.[6]
