'''A Place''' is a world rich in natural resources but, due to its poor soil, produces very little in the way of food. It is a desolate and barren world and visitors often refer to it as 'depressing'. The population of A Place is reliant on imported food from the nearby world of [[Bountiful Harvest]]. The capital city is Here and also contains the main spaceport.{{cn}}

===Planetary History===
 +
The sole planet in the A Place system gained the name Jangso, which means "A Place" in Korean. A Place was a minerally rich world but whose meager topsoil necessitated importation of most foodstuffs.<ref name=HS(TLC)p52/>
 +
 
 +
====Succession Wars====
 +
The conscription on commercial [[JumpShip]]s in the [[First Succession War]] resulted in a widespread famine that killed ninety percent of the world's population.<ref name=HS(TLC)p52/> As a result of this famine, which the inhabitants blamed on the policies of [[Archon]] [[Richard Steiner (29th c.)|Richard Steiner]], local politician [[Jermyn LeStat]] decided to defect to the [[Free Worlds League]] on the eve of the [[Second Succession War]], taking a substantial quantity of government information with him on a diplomatic mission to [[Dieudonné]]. LeStat was debriefed and then returned to A Place as a double agent, where he supplied military information to the Free Worlds League for a number of years before being retrieved by [[SAFE]] and smuggled to Dieudonné after it was believed that Lyran intelligence services were closing in on him. Despite being paid nearly two million [[M-Bill]]s by the League, LeStat never spent any of the money they paid him; he was motivated solely by a desire to see [[House Steiner]] toppled because of the deaths of his siblings during the famine.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p31">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 31: "Revenge is Sweet"</ref><ref>''Handbook: House Marik'', p. 33: "Interview with the Traitor"</ref><ref>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 38</ref>
 +
 
 +
By [[3028]] A Place was noted as having sufficient militia forces not to require mercenary supplemental forces.<ref>''Johnny Mace, Mech Ace''</ref>
 +
 
 +
====Clan Invasion====
 +
Following a bureaucratic bungle that cost the [[Twenty-third Arcturan Guards]] nearly a quarter of the RCT in [[Battle of Carse (3052)|combat]] against [[Clan Wolf]] the [[AFFC]] ordered the surviving Guards from their garrison on [[Pandora]] to A Place with orders to harass the Occupation Zones. To recoup the losses from Carse the A Place militia was organized into the 1st A Place Volunteers and rolled into the Guards' infantry brigade.<ref name=FMLAp60/>
 +
 
 +
====Civil War====
 +
A Place joined the [[Arc-Royal Defense Cordon]] in response to the [[Lyran Alliance]] secession from the [[Federated Commonwealth]]. [[Precentor Martial of ComStar|Precentor Martial]] [[Victor Steiner-Davion]] inspected [[ComGuard]] forces on A Place on 13 July [[3062]], which allowed him to discreetly meet with [[Grand Duke]] [[Morgan Kell]] and [[Omi Kurita]]. In the four days he was on world, the Precentor-Martial helped implement a new training regimen.<ref name=PTc9>''Patriots & Tyrants'', ch. 9</ref>

 +

A Place was devastated by famine in the [[First Succession War]], a direct consequence of the decision by [[Archon]] [[Richard Steiner]] to conscript commercial freighters into military service during the war. Another consequence of this action was that a rising star within the A Place government by the name of [[Jermyn LeStat]] decided to defect to the [[Free Worlds League]] on the eve of the [[Second Succession War]], taking a substantial quantity of government information with him on a diplomatic mission to [[Dieudonne]]. LeStat was debriefed and then returned to A Place as a double agent, where hs supplied military information to the Free Worlds League for a number of years before being retried by [[SAFE]] and smuggled to Dieudonne after it was believed that Lyran intelligence services were closing in on him. Despite being paid well by the League, LeStat never spent any of the money they paid him; he was motivated solely by a desire to see [[House Steiner]] toppled because of the deaths of all his family during the First Succession War famine.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p30">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 30, "The Second Succession War"</ref>

The A Place system is the location of at least one inhabited world and as of 3151 was located in the Clan Jade Falcon Occupation Zone.[3]

System Description[edit]

The A Place system is located near the Bountiful Harvest and Deweidewd systems.[4]

System History[edit]

The A Place system was settled at some point during the Star League era, after the end of the Reunification War.[5][4]

Planetary History[edit]

The sole planet in the A Place system gained the name Jangso, which means "A Place" in Korean. A Place was a minerally rich world but whose meager topsoil necessitated importation of most foodstuffs.[34]

Succession Wars[edit]

The conscription on commercial JumpShips in the First Succession War resulted in a widespread famine that killed ninety percent of the world's population.[34] As a result of this famine, which the inhabitants blamed on the policies of Archon Richard Steiner, local politician Jermyn LeStat decided to defect to the Free Worlds League on the eve of the Second Succession War, taking a substantial quantity of government information with him on a diplomatic mission to Dieudonné. LeStat was debriefed and then returned to A Place as a double agent, where he supplied military information to the Free Worlds League for a number of years before being retrieved by SAFE and smuggled to Dieudonné after it was believed that Lyran intelligence services were closing in on him. Despite being paid nearly two million M-Bills by the League, LeStat never spent any of the money they paid him; he was motivated solely by a desire to see House Steiner toppled because of the deaths of his siblings during the famine.[35][36][37]

By 3028 A Place was noted as having sufficient militia forces not to require mercenary supplemental forces.[38]

Clan Invasion[edit]

Following a bureaucratic bungle that cost the Twenty-third Arcturan Guards nearly a quarter of the RCT in combat against Clan Wolf the AFFC ordered the surviving Guards from their garrison on Pandora to A Place with orders to harass the Occupation Zones. To recoup the losses from Carse the A Place militia was organized into the 1st A Place Volunteers and rolled into the Guards' infantry brigade.[39]

Civil War[edit]

A Place joined the Arc-Royal Defense Cordon in response to the Lyran Alliance secession from the Federated Commonwealth. Precentor Martial Victor Steiner-Davion inspected ComGuard forces on A Place on 13 July 3062, which allowed him to discreetly meet with Grand Duke Morgan Kell and Omi Kurita. In the four days he was on world, the Precentor-Martial helped implement a new training regimen.[40]

Dark Age[edit]

In June 3142 Clan Jade Falcon conqured the world.[2]
