Planetary Info

Biham's first settlers were interested in exploiting the coal, natural gas, and petroleum deposits on the world. They were so interested in exploiting these resources in fact that they failed to notice that they were poisoning the world. After rapidly devastating the fragile ecosystem, the planetary government stepped in and forced the companies to meet stringent guidelines for environmental safety. Though this put many of the worst offenders out of business, it didn't stop the fact that travelers were warned to stay away from the world to protect their health and that everything that came off the world's surface had to go through an expensive decontamination process. The planet has three continents, Borellas, Hoshina and Quang-Tze[1]

The only company to meet the planetary guidelines was Yoshimatsu Chemicals, a large chemical corporation from the Draconis Combine. After the Jihad ended they controlled a wide variety of facilities in Biham, including a space fuel refinery orbiting a gas giant and processing centers on the moons.[1]

In the War of 3039 the system was invaded by the 8th Crucis Lancers and Laurel's Legion.[19] Though the system administrators were willing to join the Federated Commonwealth, the arrival of the 5th Ghost and 6th Ghost regiments put an end to that plan. Their arrival, combined with coordination problems between the FedCom units, allowed Biham to remain a possession of the Dragon.[20]
