=== First Succession War ===
 
A minor and unimportant system deep in Davion space, Cholame was abandoned by the [[AFFS]] as the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] drove towards [[New Avalon]], with even the [[Draconis Combine]] skipping garrisoning the world. Sending an AFFS battle fleet into Kurita-held territory in [[2790]] in the hope of destroying Combine naval forces to slow the offensive, Cholame was selected by taskforce commander [[Admiral]] [[Kenneth Jones]] as a rest and rendezvous point, unaware that the [[DMI]] had disastrously failed to discover that the Combine's invasion armada had chosen Cholame as its own redoubt.<ref name=HDTFS-62>''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 62: "History - First Succession War - Retreat"</ref><ref name=HHD-51>''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 51: "History of the Federated Suns - First and Second Succession Wars - First Succession War - Strategic Withdrawal"</ref>

As soon as Admiral Jones' fleet entered the system, Kuritan [[aerospace fighter]]s immediately attacked the shocked Davion forces with a group of Kuritan [[WarShip]]s close behind. The largest naval campaign either nation had ever fought, the [[Battle of Cholame (2788)|Battle of Cholame]] would last a full six weeks as Admiral Jones darted between the system's [[jump point]]s, desperately trying to buy enough time for at least some of his ships to escape. Ultimately over a hundred Davion WarShips, from small corvettes to Jones' own flagship the [[Golden Lion|FSS ''Golden Lion'']] had been lost, along with an equally large number of [[DropShip]]s and aerospace fighters, with less than a quarter of Jones' fleet able to flee. The only small comfort to the Davion forces was the fact that they had taken an equal number of Kuritan WarShips with them.<ref name=HDTFS-62/><ref name=HHD-51/>
