===Planetary History===

== Planetary History ==
Colorado was historically the world with the richest germanium deposits within the Federated Suns. This led to extensive strip mining that slowly transformed the planet into an ecological disaster. In the mid-[[thirty-first century]], the more easily-extracted nodes were becoming increasingly scarce, leading one of the companies on the planet, Basantapur Fine Metals, to expand their portfolio in [[3053]] by purchasing a commercial airline manufacturer that had lapsed into bankruptcy. Commissioned as the Basantapur Fine Metals Aerospace Range, the Basantapur plant was used to perform military refits before being expanded a couple of decades later to produce the [[Medium Strike Fighter#Custom Variants|Drake Medium Strike Fighter]].<ref name=O:FSp13/>

Colorado was also the birthplace of Marshal John Chisholm of the AFFS, who retired there in [[2892]]. Taking over the Colorado Planetary Guards, he turned them into a surprisingly capable force that the AFFS federalized as the [[1st Chisholm's Raiders]].
