Basically a giant rock in space, '''Le Blanc''' was settled by miners looking for mineral wealth. Just barely enough atmosphere existed to allow the miners to breathe without a respirator. Agriculture has always been difficult on Le Blanc, with foodstuffs mostly being imported. The world's industry is limited to mining and supporting the equipment that makes mining possible. Educational opportunities are also very limited, mostly appearing on military bases.<ref name=HBD100/> | Basically a giant rock in space, '''Le Blanc''' was settled by miners looking for mineral wealth.

Planetary Description
Basically a giant rock in space, Le Blanc was settled by miners looking for mineral wealth. Just barely enough atmosphere existed to allow the miners to breathe without a respirator. Agriculture has always been difficult on Le Blanc, with foodstuffs mostly being imported. The world's industry is limited to mining and supporting the equipment that makes mining possible. Educational opportunities are also very limited, mostly appearing on military bases.[1]
Planetary History
First Succession War
Le Blanc was invaded during the initial stages of the invasion of the Federated Suns launched by the Draconis Combine in May 2787.[13] Le Blanc was then liberated by the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns in 2811 as part of the third and final major AFFS counteroffensive of the First Succession War.[14]
Second Succession War
Le Blanc's fate was forever altered when the AFFS High Command relocated the headquarters of the Kentares PDZ to Le Blanc following the Kentares Massacre. The increased military and civilian shipping that arrived as a result of this move also brought an increased number of mercenaries looking for work. Though not as prominent as Galatea, the on-world mercenary trade ended after the Fourth Succession War with the Combine's "Death to Mercenaries" order.[1]
Third Succession War
Le Blanc would be attacked by Wolf's Dragoons while in the employ of the Combine in 3024. This led to a complicated incident involving the Black Widow Company, Michael Hasek-Davion, the Bounty Hunter and a family of high-tech skilled individuals.[48][49]
Dark Age
The mercenary unit Event Horizon has started to made a name for itself on Le Blanc.[50]
