Planetary History

Early History

Freedom was directly involved in the events that led to the eventual collapse of the Terran Alliance in the twenty-third century.[2] First discovered in 2314, Freedom spent some time under the control of the Draconis Combine, but the arrival of the 3rd Royal Guards in 2913[10] changed that. After fighting across both continents, the 6th Sword of Light regiment was destroyed and the world fell into the Lyran Commonwealth's hands. While he was First Lord of the Second Star League, Theodore Kurita visited Freedom to dedicate a memorial to the fallen warriors of both realms. At that time he promised that no Kuritans would attack the world again.[1]

The world is a breadbasket for the Freedom Theater, growing crops that are exported to many of the worlds in the Theater. Industry focuses on parts for the Water Pure Industries plants on Corridan IV.[1]

Post-Jihad Era

In the wake of the Jihad the planetary government on Freedom passed a law stating that any war materiel manufactured or used by the Word of Blake had to be destroyed by disposal in a stellar body, one of the strictest examples of the anti-salvage laws becoming common within the worlds of the former Word of Blake Protectorate and, to a lesser extent, other worlds. By destroying any such items in this manner, there was no chance that items could re-enter the manufacturing chain even as smelted metal and thereby become even the most mundane of items.[34]

A large part of the population of Freedom felt, that despite the efforts made by the leadership of Freedom to coordinate a defense against the Word of Blake as the Blakists encroached into the Lyran Alliance, the world had somehow failed the Alliance. The Lyran government lacked the resources needed to stop the Blakists capturing world after world, and for some reason much of the population of Freedom felt somehow responsible for this, a possible legacy of Freedom's long-term role as a command hub for the outer edges of the Skye Province.[2]
