Planetary History[edit]
First Succession War[edit]
In 2795, following the appointment of Sandol Quinn as regent to Ilsa Liao, the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces launched an invasion of the Federated Suns intended to capture the politically-significant Chesterton system. Planned by Quinn, the operation was intended to take advantage of the AFFS' continuing focus on trying to resist the massive Draconis Combine invasion of the Federated Suns, which stood poised to capture New Avalon itself. Quinn's plan involved encircling Chesterton by taking the systems around it, using mercenary units for the initial invasions—predominantly or exclusively former Star League Defense Force commands that had been recruited by the Confederation—and following up with CCAF line regiments to secure the captured worlds. Whilst launching one or two planetary invasions aimed at systems around Chesterton, Quinn also had the CCAF copy tactics used by the Combine so effectively, leapfrogging over border systems to capture a number of systems further inside the Federated Suns to add pressure to the AFFS. Quinn's strategy worked well for several years; by the time CCAF troops invaded Sonnia in October 2796, the Confederation had already conquered Caselton, Demeter, Farwell, Mirach, and Sanilac. The defending forces on Sonnia managed to hold out for a month before finally being defeated.[9]
Third Succession War[edit]
Originally settled by nobles from Tikonov, Sonnia was a vacation paradise. The tropical environment was conducive to large resorts and spas. Instead of tourism becoming the cornerstone of the local economy, nuclear power fills that role. Radioactive isotopes and elements were easily extracted from Sonnia's crust, and as a result nuclear power industry became the major employer on the world.[2]
Though no major battles have been fought on the world, its nuclear power industry makes it vitally important to the Capellan March. Therefore the AFFS garrisons the world heavily. These units are also able to take advantage of the varied terrain of Sonnia, acclimating themselves to a wide variety of environments.[2]
Military Deployment[edit]

Notes[edit]
Sonnia appears on the 2571 map in Handbook: House Davion, but not in the 2571 map in Handbook: House Liao. It was confirmed by the map editor that the Handbook: House Davion map is in error. (dead link)
