Planetary Info
Settled at some point before the end of the Age of War, Deneb Algedi was one of the worlds within the Lone Star Province of the Terran Hegemony.[5][7] Deneb Algedi was first settled by colonists from Terra's Africa and South American continents; they adapted quickly to the arid conditions that cover the world, but the presence of the nayaraptor (an airborne predator that could grab and carry up to 90kg people) was a key limiting factor in the early years. Fortunately as time passed, the inhabitants were able to reduce the nayaraptor's numbers to safe levels; Today hunting the few remaining nayaraptors is a large part of the Deneb Algedi tourist industry.[1]
The planet has little to offer other than its location and wide desert expanses. A large island chain houses several military bases and test ranges far from the majority of the population.[1]
Deneb Algedi was incorporated into the Word of Blake Protectorate during the Jihad, but by March 3077 had been liberated. However, the liberation of Deneb Algedi caused controversy in its' own right, as the allied coalition chose to garrison Deneb Algedi and the nearby - and also recently liberated - world of Telos IV with garrison forces from the Federated Suns. Where the DCMS had intended to deploy the Toguran Military Garrison and the New Samarkand Militia to garrison the worlds, these Combine forces were instead deployed to recently liberated worlds on the Free Worlds League front instead. Deneb Algedi found itself being garrisoned by the Valexa Militia, an act which drew protests from Gunji-no-Kanrei Kiyomori Minamoto to General Belle Lee of the allied coalition.[3]
