Planetary Info

New Vandenburg's capital city is also called New Vandenburg. It has three continents: Hoyt (location of the capital city), South Holme, and Suissen.[3]

Local Fauna

Planetar Histoy

New Vandenburg (also written New Vandenberg) is home to the largest Taurian industrial center outside of the Hyades Cluster. The planet is also home to a fantastic and diverse population of native avians. These avians are prized and cherished so much that the southern continent of New Vandenburg has devoted a sizable landmass to extensive nature preserves for these species.[2]

This world was the location of some of the worst fighting and atrocities that happened during the Reunification War. New Vandenburg was the central world involved in the New Vandenberg Uprising that later triggered the 13-year Amaris Civil War.[2] Having been the first world to be involved in what would become the Periphery Uprising, New Vandenburg was also one of the last to be conquered by the SLDF prior to the end of operations in the Periphery in the wake of the coup performed by Stefan Amaris on Terra. New Vandenburg was conquered by the SLDF on the 7th of January 2767, just over three weeks before news of the coup arrived and a ceasefire would be ordered General Aleksandr Kerensky.[5]

New Vandenburg is one of several Concordat worlds that have extensive pillboxes and other military strong points constructed to defend it. This planet is especially dear to the Taurians, and they are frenzied in its defense. New Vandenburg maintains extensive constant garrisons and fortifications.[2]
