====Early History====

=== Early History ===
Blackjack was settled by English and French settlers from [[Terra]]. These early pioneers had come to Blackjack due to its accessible mineral wealth. Though ores were in limited qualities, heavy industry had built up on the planet. By the [[Second Succession War]], the valuable ores had dried up and its industries were destroyed by [[Draconis Combine|Combine]] and Periphery Raiders.<ref name=HB:HSp80-81/>

The planet became infamously known to being the home of the Blackjack School of Conflict, which continued to operate well into the mid-[[thirty-first century]].

====Clan Invasion====
+
===Clan Invasion===
In August [[3050]], Clan Jade Falcon's [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Delta Galaxy]] invaded the planet in Wave Four of [[Operation REVIVAL]].  In the [[Trial of Possession]] for Blackjack, the planet's only defenders was the Blackjack School's [[Blackjack Training Battalion|Training Battalion]] led by [[Kommandant]] [[Dean Bristow]].  While fighting the [[Second Falcon Jaegers (Clan Jade Falcon)|Second Falcon Jaegers]], the training battalion suffered 80 percent casualties. However, the Falcons were so impressed by the cadets' actions they let most of the survivors retreat from the planet, but they did take some cadets that they saw as honorable as [[Bondsmen]].  In one example, Cadet [[Mark Harris]] defeated a Clan [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] in a [[Trial of Possession]] for Harris' family home and later would be seen to have been accepted into the Falcon [[Touman]].<ref name=HB:HSp80-81/>

===Lyran Alliance Invasion===
During [[Jade Falcon Incursion (3064)|Clan Jade Falcon's Incursion]] in the Lyran space, coalition of Lyran Alliance forces had counterattacked the Falcons' Occupation Zone.  In December [[3064]] [[Archer Christifori|General Christifori]] led the [[Archer's Avengers]] in a [[Trial of Possession]] for Blackjack. The Lyran forces had set up their base in the ruins of the Blackjack School. In the course of the battle with the defending [[8th Provisional Garrison (Clan Jade Falcon)|Eighth]] and [[10th Provisional Garrison (Clan Jade Falcon)|Tenth Provisional Garrison Clusters]] the Trial of Possession had turned into a [[Trial of Annihilation]] due to events of various [[regiment]]s on [[Twycross]]. In orbit above Blackjack the Lyran forces had an allied [[Clan Wolf (in Exile)|Clan Wolf in Exile's]] [[WarShip]], the ''[[Aegis]]''-class heavy cruiser [[Black Paw (Individual Aegis-class WarShip)|CWS ''Black Paw'']], providing support for them. The ''Black Paw'' engaged in battle with a Jade Falcon WarShip, the ''Aegis''-class [[White Talon|CJF ''White Talon'']] during conflict for Blackjack. The ''Black Paw'' also provided orbit-to-ground fire support for the Lyran troops. Six days into the conflict, General [[Adam Steiner]] arrived with reinforcements and assisted the increasingly weary Archer's Avengers. The Trial ended shortly after [[saKhan]] [[Samantha Clees]] arrived in-system and declared the Lyrans winner of the Trial.<ref name="FCCW">''FedCom Civil War'', p. 118: "Blackjack"</ref>

=== Second Falcon Incursion ===
Although the Lyran Alliance held the world in the late 3060s, they did little to actually improve the life of their former countrymen. The inhabitants of Blackjack maintained the Clan caste system they'd been living under for two decades, and the Alliance couldn't spare the money or manpower to rehabilitate them back into the Spheroid way of life.<ref name=M&M/> The Falcons invaded again in late January [[3069]],<ref name="J:FRp46">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> and this time the Alliance simply left the world in their hands after putting up a token fight.<ref name=M&M/>

After retaking the planet the Jade Falcons rebuilt the Blackjack School of Combat as the [[Jade Falcon School of Conflict on Blackjack]]. On this campus the Clan maintained its traditional warrior training programs, with trueborns raised in ''[[sibko]]s'' and freeborns able to apply at age 13. Unlike other Falcon training sites, however, the Jade Falcon School of Combat on Blackjack also had a militia training facility. This was a much shorter program and trained its students to guard worlds and resources that didn't warrant frontline or second-line troops from the [[Clan Jade Falcon Touman|Falcon ''touman'']]. The militia program's focus was on driving off raiding forces and operating in search-and-rescue operations.<ref name=M&M/>

== Political Affiliation ==  
In April [[3147]], a pirate gang attacked the School of Conflict and was met by a defending force comprised mostly of ''sibko'' cadets piloting [[Howler (Baboon)|Howlers]]. To the mixed pride and chagrin of their instructor, an avowed opponent of [[Malvina Hazen|Malvina Hazen's]] [[Mongol Doctrine]], the cadets successfully drove off the pirates using aggressive Mongol tactics, though incurring heavy equipment losses in the process.<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 8'', p. 4</ref>
