Political Affiliation

Planetary Info

Gienah occupies a unique place in the Lyran economy because its residents have extensive trade agreements with poorer worlds in the Free Worlds League. This forces the natives to carefully balance their fellow Lyran world's hatred of the FWL with Gienah's need for the cash brought in by the trade agreements.[1]

Gienah has three continents: Carrabesto to the north, Alliago Major (the largest continent) lies on the equator, and Alliago Minor covers the southern pole. Alliago Minor is also home to a LCAF cold-weather combat training facility.[1]

Planetary History

Fourth Succession War

In October 3028 the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces repositioned a number of frontline units as the Free Worlds League Military launched Operation DAGGER. One of the units repositioned was the mercenary unit Gregg's Long Striders, who were relocated to Gienah; the LCAF strategic intent wasn't to prevent a League invasion, but rather to make invading forces pay more dearly for any gains and slow the progress of any breakthrough.[35]
