Owner History

Planetary History

When Baron Cham Kithrong led four worlds to form the secessionist Calderon Protectorate in late 3066, Diik remained on the sidelines until Kithrong held a media interview in which he explained his reasons for forming the Protectorate in December of that year. The interview prompted Diik and three neighbouring worlds to join the Protectorate,[11] with the military production factories on the planet becoming an important part in keeping the military of the fledgling Protectorate going.[16]

In the wake of the Jihad the factories on Diik continued to produce RetroTech BattleMechs and AeroSpace Fighters at a respectable rate; the majority of this production went to the Protectorate's military forces, but the Protectorate also sold excess production to both the Fronc Reaches and the Filtvelt Coalition. In addition to the equipment sold to the two nearby Periphery realms, the Fiefdom of Randis also bought small quantities of the Star Dagger for their own local defense forces.[17]

Planetary Info

Diik has three continents named Overland, Netherland, and Northland. These continents are mostly sparsely populated, only Overland (the largest continent) has any large settlements in 3079. The world has mostly attracted independent sorts like hunters, loners, explorers, and trappers, but new colonists are arriving as well.[21]
