Planetary Info

Age of War

Dieudonne possessed extensive mineral wealth, and the native lifeforms were tasty and nutritious. These were the leading reasons that the world was settled, and these exports provided much of the world's economy. The world's location at the intersection of three realms - Terran Hegemony, Lyran Commonwealth, and Free Worlds League - insured that the three powers would constantly squabble over who had the rights to the world. Eventually the Terran Hegemony was made the administrator and placed numerous SLDF facilities on the world.

One of the early battles for control of Dieudonne was fought in 2416, when the Lyran Commonwealth tried to seize control of Dieudonne from the Free Worlds League. The response of the Free Worlds League parliament was to recall Peter Marik to service as Captain-General, and the resulting short military campaign saw Peter capture several Lyran border worlds before the 2418 armistice ended the attacks.

Star League Era & Succession Wars

The Amaris Civil War destroyed most of the SLDF complexes on the world, and during the Succession Wars the planet changed hands several times, moving back and forth between the Commonwealth and the League. In the 2850's the FWLM brought the world completely into the League. By 2912, the LCCC recognized the world's strategic position by making it the command center for all operations in the Terran region. The FWLM headquarters building is named New Bastogne, and is heavily fortified to survive a siege or direct assault. In the face of this military might, other factions have started to use intelligence agents to explore the world and exploit any opening. SAFE has identified agents of the LIC, MIIO, and Maskirovka on the world.

The Jihad

In August 3077 allied forces fighting for the coalition as a part of Operation SCOUR were forced to retreat to Dieudonne after the Word of Blake launched a counter-offensive to recapture the nearby world of Marcus.
