| + | Dabih was originally settled sometime during the [[twenty-fifth century]] when the Azami left Terra in order to colonize the stars.<ref name="HKp118">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 118, "Islam"</ref> The original colonists came from [[Terra]]'s Middle East region and were followers of the Muslim faith. The colonists were attracted to this world's deep oceans and heavy forests. Shortly after they arrived, the colonists discovered that Dabih's largest moon, Shakhi, was also suitable for colonization. The moon was designated as the agricultural source for the planet, which left the industries on Dabih free to exploit the mineral resources in the planet's crust.<ref name=DARWp28/> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Unfortunately these mineral resources were located deep in the crust and required substantial efforts to extract. Compounding the problem was the soil on Shakhi, which was only able to grow a few grains and was very difficult to work. The outlook was bleak for many years, but a hundred years after the first settlers arrived, geologists found a large field of crude oil beneath Garalash, the southern polar continent. This hydrocarbon resource prompted further exploration which led to the discovery of large pockets of natural gas. Based on these resources Dabih became an exporter of hydrocarbon fuels, and the quality of life increased as the planet prospered.<ref name=DARWp28/> | ||
| + | |||
| + | This prosperity didn't extend to Shakhi, however. In the centuries since the hydrocarbons were discovered, the abortive agriculture project has declined, with small farms and large prairies covering most of it's surface. Troops sent to garrison the world often stationed their AeroSpace Fighters on Shakhi, sparing Dabih much of the destruction common during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]]. Its position as a satellite of Dabih also helped the defenders drive off raiding forces on several occasions. The defenders could engage the attackers before they reached the planet's surface.<ref name=DARWp28/> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The population of Dabih were known to hold dune races using exquisitely-maintained and manoeuverable hovercraft known as "Sand Devils". Manufactured by [[Cairo Enterprises]] of [[Arkab]], the Sand Devil was an effective combat vehicle in its own right during the [[Age of War]], and played a substantial part in the defence of the Arkab worlds when the Combine invaded in [[2497]]. In [[2673]] executives from one of the Combine state manufacturers, [[Buda Imperial Vehicles]], were on Dabih and witnessed one of the dune races. The race impressed them enough that Buda negotiated with Dabih to build a factory complex on Dabih dedicated to producing a new version of the Sand Devil known as the ''[[Sabaku Kaze]]'', or "Desert Wind". The Desert Wind proved hugely popular with both the Azami and the [[DCMS]] after entering service in [[2695]], and Buda was unable to keep up with demand for the vehicle throughout the Star League era and early Succession Wars.<ref name="TRO3075p202">''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 202, "Sabuka Kaze Heavy Scout Hover Tank"</ref> | ||

System Description
The Dabih system is located near the Albalii and Algedi systems[2][3] and consists of a class FoIV primary orbited by at three planets.[1]
System History
The Dabih system was colonised at some point prior to the end of the Reunification War.[4]
Dabih I
Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Dabih I - more commonly known simply as Dabih - is the innermost of three planets in the system and has three moons named El-Arabi, Lorial and Shakhi. Shakhi has a thin but breathable atmosphere and reserves of water.[1]
Planetary History
Dabih was originally settled sometime during the twenty-fifth century when the Azami left Terra in order to colonize the stars.[5] The original colonists came from Terra's Middle East region and were followers of the Muslim faith. The colonists were attracted to this world's deep oceans and heavy forests. Shortly after they arrived, the colonists discovered that Dabih's largest moon, Shakhi, was also suitable for colonization. The moon was designated as the agricultural source for the planet, which left the industries on Dabih free to exploit the mineral resources in the planet's crust.[1]
Unfortunately these mineral resources were located deep in the crust and required substantial efforts to extract. Compounding the problem was the soil on Shakhi, which was only able to grow a few grains and was very difficult to work. The outlook was bleak for many years, but a hundred years after the first settlers arrived, geologists found a large field of crude oil beneath Garalash, the southern polar continent. This hydrocarbon resource prompted further exploration which led to the discovery of large pockets of natural gas. Based on these resources Dabih became an exporter of hydrocarbon fuels, and the quality of life increased as the planet prospered.[1]
This prosperity didn't extend to Shakhi, however. In the centuries since the hydrocarbons were discovered, the abortive agriculture project has declined, with small farms and large prairies covering most of it's surface. Troops sent to garrison the world often stationed their AeroSpace Fighters on Shakhi, sparing Dabih much of the destruction common during the Succession Wars. Its position as a satellite of Dabih also helped the defenders drive off raiding forces on several occasions. The defenders could engage the attackers before they reached the planet's surface.[1]
The population of Dabih were known to hold dune races using exquisitely-maintained and manoeuverable hovercraft known as "Sand Devils". Manufactured by Cairo Enterprises of Arkab, the Sand Devil was an effective combat vehicle in its own right during the Age of War, and played a substantial part in the defence of the Arkab worlds when the Combine invaded in 2497. In 2673 executives from one of the Combine state manufacturers, Buda Imperial Vehicles, were on Dabih and witnessed one of the dune races. The race impressed them enough that Buda negotiated with Dabih to build a factory complex on Dabih dedicated to producing a new version of the Sand Devil known as the Sabaku Kaze, or "Desert Wind". The Desert Wind proved hugely popular with both the Azami and the DCMS after entering service in 2695, and Buda was unable to keep up with demand for the vehicle throughout the Star League era and early Succession Wars.[6]
The AFFS struck at Dabih in 2883 and destroyed a part of the Buda factory; the attack deliberately targeted the portion of the factory complex where fission reactors were constructed and stored. The resulting damage scattered radioactive material across the factory site and surrounding countryside, resulting in contamination that made the area dangerous to visit for at least two centuries. For various reasons Buda never rebuilt or replaced the plant on Dabih.[6]
