| − | == | + | ===Planetary History=== |
| − | + | ====Early History==== | |
| − | + | Chichibu's first settlers were wiped out by a virulent strain of smallpox. Since [[HPG]] communication hadn't been invented at the time, the rescuers and medical aid for these settlers arrived too late. The investigation team found a world covered in barren ghost towns and overgrown streets.<ref name=DARWp30/> | |
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | The next group of settlers, immunized against the disease, occupied the ghost towns left behind by their predecessors. They named the capital of the world "Remembrance" and established new settlements across the planet's main continent, Jaweena. The ecosystem was similar to [[Terra]]'s, with plenty of land for farms and the local mineral resources allowed for a small mining industry.<ref name=DARWp30/> | |
| − | |||
| − | The | + | Most of Chichibu's economy was based on aquatic ranching however. The Chichiban whale was grown and herded in a manner similar to cattle, despite being in the large oceans. To prevent the Chichiban whale from being wiped out, the Chichiban government enforced no-whaling zones in several areas of the sea and sponsored a domestic breeding program for the whale. These measures were insurance against the whale being hunted to extinction, which given the quality of the meat and blubber, could have happened easily.<ref name=DARWp30/> |
| − | + | ====Jihad==== | |
| + | Between 7 and 14 August [[3068]], Chichibu was one of six worlds raided by a combination of small [['Mech]] units in the employ of the [[Draconis March]] of the [[Federated Suns]] and teams of Federated Suns commandos. The deep objective raids targeted undefended worlds, allegedly to find and liberate prisoners of war in captivity within the Combine since the [[FedCom Civil War]]. The six worlds targeted were [[Altais]], [[Barlow's Folly]], [[Beta Mensae V]], Chichibu, [[Junction]] and [[Misery]], and apparently some POWs were discovered.<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> Chichibu was raided between the 9th and 11th of August by an AFFS force that deployed two [[DropShip]]s, the ''[[Condor (DropShip class)|Condor]]''-class ''[[Crimson Dirk]]'' and the ''[[Union]]''-class ''[[Stone Rose]]'', using information provided by [[Leftenant Colonel]] [[Colin Kerse]], a member of [[Chisholm's Raiders]]. Kerse was aware of the existence of the prison camp on Chichibu because he had escaped from it, with assistance from local elements of the nobility opposed to the ''[[Kokuryu-kai]]'', who were responsible for the creation of the camp. The same elements provided information to Kerse while the AFFS was en route to the planet, enabling the raiders to exploit a gap in the ground detection nets and land unseen on the Okuchi Peninsula in northern Jaweena. The raiders—an ad hoc formation dubbed Task Force Iron—consisted of nine [[BattleMech]]s, an infantry [[battalion]], two [[lance]]s of [[VTOL]]s, a [[platoon]] of [[battle armor]] and a mixed platoon of hovertanks, and used Combine markings to disguise their affiliation. Although Kerse was responsible for the raid happening, the operational commander was effectively [[Major]] [[Amanda Rawson]], officially assigned as Kerse's XO; the AFFS had concerns about the veracity of Kerse's information given that after escaping, he had lobbied for a raid to rescue prisoners, struck a superior officer, and ended up in a mental hospital undergoing psychiatric evaluation before someone with influence arranged his release. The AFFS prisoners made approximately one-fifth of the six to seven hundred prisoners within the camp, who were being kept there in secret by the Black Dragon Society to mine diamonds, which the Black Dragons used as means of raising revenue. Guarding the camp were half a dozen [['Mech]]s piloted by former personnel from the [[Alshain Avengers]], who had survived the destruction of the Avengers at the hands of [[Clan Ghost Bear]] and been declared ''[[Ronin (Faction)|ronin]]'' by [[Coordinator of Worlds|Coordinator]] [[Theodore Kurita]]. The raid was a success, freeing more than one hundred and forty POWs, as well as more than two dozen Combine prisoners who elected to leave; the remaining prisoners elected to stay on Chichibu. Whilst Task Force Iron struck at the prison camp, Black Dragon Society members across Chichibu were being arrested as a result of actions taken by the same faction within the nobility that had assisted Kerse.<ref name="TP">''The Promise''</ref> | ||

Chichibu I, more commonly referred to simply as Chichibu, is the first planet of five in the system and has three moons named Janus, Kara, and Tobyn.[1]
Planetary History
Early History
Chichibu's first settlers were wiped out by a virulent strain of smallpox. Since HPG communication hadn't been invented at the time, the rescuers and medical aid for these settlers arrived too late. The investigation team found a world covered in barren ghost towns and overgrown streets.[1]
The next group of settlers, immunized against the disease, occupied the ghost towns left behind by their predecessors. They named the capital of the world "Remembrance" and established new settlements across the planet's main continent, Jaweena. The ecosystem was similar to Terra's, with plenty of land for farms and the local mineral resources allowed for a small mining industry.[1]
Most of Chichibu's economy was based on aquatic ranching however. The Chichiban whale was grown and herded in a manner similar to cattle, despite being in the large oceans. To prevent the Chichiban whale from being wiped out, the Chichiban government enforced no-whaling zones in several areas of the sea and sponsored a domestic breeding program for the whale. These measures were insurance against the whale being hunted to extinction, which given the quality of the meat and blubber, could have happened easily.[1]
Jihad
Between 7 and 14 August 3068, Chichibu was one of six worlds raided by a combination of small 'Mech units in the employ of the Draconis March of the Federated Suns and teams of Federated Suns commandos. The deep objective raids targeted undefended worlds, allegedly to find and liberate prisoners of war in captivity within the Combine since the FedCom Civil War. The six worlds targeted were Altais, Barlow's Folly, Beta Mensae V, Chichibu, Junction and Misery, and apparently some POWs were discovered.[37] Chichibu was raided between the 9th and 11th of August by an AFFS force that deployed two DropShips, the Condor-class Crimson Dirk and the Union-class Stone Rose, using information provided by Leftenant Colonel Colin Kerse, a member of Chisholm's Raiders. Kerse was aware of the existence of the prison camp on Chichibu because he had escaped from it, with assistance from local elements of the nobility opposed to the Kokuryu-kai, who were responsible for the creation of the camp. The same elements provided information to Kerse while the AFFS was en route to the planet, enabling the raiders to exploit a gap in the ground detection nets and land unseen on the Okuchi Peninsula in northern Jaweena. The raiders—an ad hoc formation dubbed Task Force Iron—consisted of nine BattleMechs, an infantry battalion, two lances of VTOLs, a platoon of battle armor and a mixed platoon of hovertanks, and used Combine markings to disguise their affiliation. Although Kerse was responsible for the raid happening, the operational commander was effectively Major Amanda Rawson, officially assigned as Kerse's XO; the AFFS had concerns about the veracity of Kerse's information given that after escaping, he had lobbied for a raid to rescue prisoners, struck a superior officer, and ended up in a mental hospital undergoing psychiatric evaluation before someone with influence arranged his release. The AFFS prisoners made approximately one-fifth of the six to seven hundred prisoners within the camp, who were being kept there in secret by the Black Dragon Society to mine diamonds, which the Black Dragons used as means of raising revenue. Guarding the camp were half a dozen 'Mechs piloted by former personnel from the Alshain Avengers, who had survived the destruction of the Avengers at the hands of Clan Ghost Bear and been declared ronin by Coordinator Theodore Kurita. The raid was a success, freeing more than one hundred and forty POWs, as well as more than two dozen Combine prisoners who elected to leave; the remaining prisoners elected to stay on Chichibu. Whilst Task Force Iron struck at the prison camp, Black Dragon Society members across Chichibu were being arrested as a result of actions taken by the same faction within the nobility that had assisted Kerse.[38]
Geography
Chichibu has four major continents named Jaweena, Quillani, Thracen, and Vyrusia.[1] The largest of the continents is Jaweena.
