System History

The Altoona system was originally colonised during the First Exodus from Terra[2] but had been abandoned or depopulated by the end of the Age of War.[3] Altoona was then resettled during the Star League era at some point after the end of the Reunification War[4][1] but was removed from maps during the Second Succession War[5][6] indicating that the system had been abandoned or depopulated for a second time.
