{{Update Needed|[[Objectives: Lyran Alliance]]|[[Handbook: House Steiner]]|[[Shattered Fortress]]}} ==Description== Originally a subdivision of the District of Donegal, the rimward and anti-spinward region of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] was named the '''Alarion Province''' as early as the Age of War.<ref name=HBHSp25>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 25</ref> Since the [[Jihad]], the seat of the province has passed between several different worlds. It has historically been among the less-developed regions of the Commonwealth.<ref name=HBHSp73>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 73</ref> ==History== ===Star League=== Fierce fighting near [[Bolan]] in the late [[Age of War]] ultimately resulted in the [[Free Worlds League]] controlling a region known as the [[Bolan Thumb]], a salient of space that reached far into Alarion Province and left almost all its worlds within striking distance. By the late Star League era, the region was considered to be a volatile one and [[LXIX Corps (Star League)|LXIX Corps]] of the [[SLDF]] was on-station to monitor for any action by either side. ===Succession Wars=== Neutralizing the Bolan Thumb and the threat it posed to Alarion Province was the goal of [[Operation ELBOW JOINT]], the first military campaign of the [[First Succession War]].<ref name=FSW16>''First Succession War'', pp. 16–17</ref> Though the campaign was ultimately a success, the continual escalation of violence over the span of the campaign would set the tone for wars to come.<ref name=FSW21>''First Succession War'', pp. 20–21</ref> Though not avoiding the damage of the First Succession War, Alarion was one of the regions that fared comparatively better. As its borders were with the Free Worlds League and Periphery, it did not face the same level of damage as the [[Isle of Skye]] or [[Tamar Pact]]. Additionally, the [[Port Sydney Naval Shipyards]] above Alarion were the Commonwealth's last remaining major shipyard.<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 51</ref> Alarion Province was not safe forever, however. The ill-advised policy of "concentrated weakness" conceived by [[Alessandro Steiner]] led to serious damage in the region in 3006, as Free Worlds forces saw inner worlds being denuded of forces and took advantage. Rioting began to break out in worlds along the Marik border, calling for the replacement of the Archon.<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 89</ref> The region received a major investment from the Commonwealth government in 3020, when the [[War College of Buena]] opened. The school trained [[MechWarriors]] but quickly gained a reputation for producing top-notch technicians<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 124</ref> At the end of the [[Third Succession War]], Alarion Province was commonly grouped together with its neighbor, [[Coventry Province|Coventry]], as underdeveloped and underpopulated but rich with potential. Local government was often characterized by a looser and more free-wheeling style than the [[Lyran Commonwealth Civil Service|LCCS]]. Unlike their other neighbor, [[Bolan Province]], the people of Alarion were largely in favor of negotiating for peace with House Marik.<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 91</ref> ===Clan Invasion=== Considered a "safe" region in the wake of the Clan Invasion, Alarion benefited from two major investments in the 3050s: the expansion of Alarion's shipyards to produce [[WarShips]]<ref name=HBHS143>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 143</ref> and massive investment into the War College of Buena, expanding its curriculum to include fighter pilots and leading it to become one of the largest academies in Lyran space.<ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 109</ref> The school's [[Buena Training Battalion]] also bolstered local defenses with their live-fire anti-pirate missions.<ref>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'', p. 38</ref> ===Jihad=== The province was renamed after the former capitol was rendered uninhabitable by the Jihad in April 3069.<ref name="J:FRp46">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46: "The Jihad in Review"</ref><ref name="J:FRp47">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 47: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> The seat of the province was moved to Buena, with the province being renamed '''Buena Province'''. ===Dark Age and ilClan=== Archon Trillian Steiner removed Buena as the provincial capital following [[Diego Widmer]]'s formation of the [[Buena Collective]], resulting in the province becoming the '''York Province'''.<ref name=ic112>''IlClan'', p. 112: "Prize or Punishment?"</ref> By June 3152, the province capitol had been relocated to [[Bolan]], creating a new '''Bolan Province''' that was geographically distinct from the [[Bolan Province|prior province of the same name]].<ref>''Empire Alone'', p. 78: Map of the Free Worlds League and surrounding systems</ref> ==Systems of Note== ===Capitol=== * [[Alarion]] (By 2570 - 3069)<ref name=HBHSp25/><ref name="JHS:Tp66">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 66: "Alarion: World in Recovery?"</ref> * [[Buena]] (3081 - 3148)<ref name="J:FRp61">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 61: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> * [[York (LC)|York]] (3148 - June 3151)<ref name=ic112>''IlClan'', p. 112: "Prize or Punishment?"</ref> * [[Bolan]] (June 3151 - present)<ref name=EAmap>''Empire Alone'', p. 78: Map of the Free Worlds League and neighboring systems</ref> ===Industrial=== * [[Alarion]] ** [[Alarion Naval Academy]] ** [[Ioto Galactic Enterprises]] ** [[Bowie Industries]] ** [[Nashan Diversified]] * [[Buena]] ** [[Arcturan Arms]] ** [[War College of Buena]] * [[Bolan]] ** [[Melissa Steiner Martial Academy of Bolan]] * [[Carlisle]] ** [[Bowie Industries]] ** [[S.
