The Dieron Military District is one of the five military districts in the Draconis Combine. It is the military district closest to Terra, and has borders with both the Federated Suns and the Lyran Commonwealth.

History
Clan Invasion
The Clan Invasion, though not directly impacting the District, did lead to a staggering reduction in military forces stationed there, as the Federated Commonwealth was no longer the primary threat to the Draconis Combine. At the start of 3050, 24 battlemech regiments were based in the district, nearly a quarter of the Dragon's total strength. [1] By 3054 when the situation had stabilized, only three regiments remained. [2]
Jihad
The Word of Blake struck many systems in the Dieron Military District. To increase the difficulties, the Black Dragon Society also caused a great deal of trouble during the Jihad. In addition, the Azami worlds are located in the Dieron district, and tensions between the Arkabs and the Dragon have increased everyone's stress level.[3]
The Blakists were particularly successful in this district, taking control of all but twenty-seven systems.[4]
Post-Jihad
As part of the creation of the Republic of the Sphere, a number of worlds from the former Dieron Military District were ceded to Terran rule. Dieron itself was integrated into Prefecture X.[5]
Warlords
From 3020 as to 3034 General Vasily Cherenkoff was the ruling Warlord of the District.[6]
The commanding district warlord from 3034 as to 3054 is Tai-shu Michi Noketsuna[2], he was followed in early 3054 by Tai-Shu Isoroku Kurita and he held the command also in 3059.[7]
In late 3135, Coordinator Vincent Kurita appointed General Katana Tormark as Warlord of the re-established Dieron Military District in recognition of her exploits as leader of the Dragon's Fury. It is of note that Dieron itself was, at this time, still in Republic hands, thus simultaneously tasking the new Tai-shu with its conquest.[8]
