| + | Hamal VI, more commonly known simply as Hamal, is the sixth planet in the system and has three moons named Arietis, Natih, and Ras.<ref name=DARWp79/> | ||
| − | Hamal | + | ===Planetary History=== |
| + | ====Early History==== | ||
| + | Hamal was originally colonized by settlers from the highland regions of South America on [[Terra]], who founded the only major city, Califa Hamal, at the equator.<ref name=DARWp79/> | ||
| − | + | The Tikonov Union allied with the nearby [[Chesterton Trade Worlds]], and with clashes with other worlds and states escalating from [[2202]] onwards, the Carinus family of [[Tikonov]] gained increasing amounts of influence until they reached a point where they could force institutional change on the Union. This led to the Union merging with the Chesterton Trade Worlds in an administrative and defensive pact, creating an enlarged Tikonov Union organized into three provinces and ruled by a quorum of four rulers known as the Tikonov Tetrarchy. Hamal was one of the three provincial capitals, alongside [[Chesterton]] and Tikonov, and would continue to be a provincial capital until at least as late as the formation of the [[Tikonov Grand Union]]<ref name="HL(TCC)p20"/> in [[2243]].<ref name="HB:HLp12"/> | |
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | As time passed, Hamal's importance diminished; other worlds were more habitable, had more resources and soon had larger populations, whilst Hamal became increasingly backwards in comparison; most of the population of Hamal lived in a tribal, nomadic fashion, following the vegetation that grows as the seasons on Hamal changed, and would continue to live in that fashion for more than a thousand years. By the time the Tikonov Grand Union joined the Capellan Confederation<ref name=DARWp79/> in [[2366]]<ref name="HB:HLp17"/> Hamal had lost the importance it once had. The [[Terran Hegemony]] subsequently agreed to incorporate Hamal into the Hegemony.<ref name=DARWp79/> | |
| − | |||
| − | As | + | ====Amaris Civil War==== |
| + | As a Terran Hegemony world, Hamal became a part of the [[Amaris Empire]] during the coup perpetrated by [[Stefan Amaris]]. Hamal would remain an Amaris Empire world until September [[2772]], when the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[Fifteenth Army (Star League)|Fifteenth Army]], operating as a part of the [[Seventeenth Army Group (SLDF)|Seventeenth Army Group]], liberated Hamal as a part of [[Operation CHIEFTAIN]].<ref name="H:LoTV1p131">''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1'', p. 131: "High Hopes"</ref> The liberation of Hamal wasn't as easy as [[XL Corps (Star League)|XL Corps]] had anticipated; while there were no major problems, there were a number of large pro-Amaris enclaves on Hamal that XL Corps didn't expect, and defeating Amaris' supporters took more time than XL Corps had anticipated, as well as forcing the Corps to recapture territory it already believed to have been pacified.<ref name="H:LoTV1p133">''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1'', p. 133: "Seventeenth Army Group"</ref> | ||
| − | === | + | ====Succession Wars==== |
| − | + | Hamal was one of many Hegemony worlds to be annexed by the Capellan Confederation during the early years of the [[First Succession War]], and was a Capellan holding by [[2791]].<ref name="FSWp59"/> Hamal would remain a Capellan holding until it was conquered by the [[Federated Suns]] during the [[Fourth Succession War]], although the expertise of the desert fighters on Hamal earned the respect of the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] during the invasion.<ref name=DARWp79/> | |
| − | === | + | ====Jihad==== |
| − | Hamal | + | The tribes on Hamal remained technologically poor during the Succession Wars, and when the [[Word of Blake]] arrived, they found willing converts among the population; some of the population would continue to remain loyal to the Blakist theology and ideology even during the [[Dark Age]].<ref name=DARWp79/> In July [[3081]] forces from the allied coalition nearly caught [[Precentor]] [[John Garrick]], the Word of Blake's Director of Nuclear Technology, in a safe house in Califa Hamal. Although the coalition forces successfully defeated a bodyguard detachment from the [[Light of Mankind]]<ref name="TCp243">''Total Chaos'', pp. 243–244: "Firefly"</ref> and even believed briefly that they had captured Garrick, the Blakist Precentor managed to escape through the local sewer system amidst the distraction offered by his bodyguard, leaving the coalition with a body double.<ref name="J:FRp76">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 76: "Chaos Undaunted: Firefly"</ref> |

| − | == | + | ===Geography=== |
| − | + | Hamal is a cold and dry world, a desert world consisting of a single landmass dominated by frozen tundra and windstorms that the local population refer to as "sand blizzards". Most of the planet remains below freezing; it's only at the equator that temperatures can climb above freezing. There are a number of small, landlocked seas dotted across the surface of the planet; the seas contain mostly crushed ice.<ref name=DARWp79/> | |

System Description[edit]
Hamal is located near the Bharat and Yangtze systems[4] and consists of a class K2III primary orbited by eight worlds.[1]
System History[edit]
The Hamal system was colonized during the First Exodus from Terra and was one of the worlds that survived the Demarcation Declaration of 2242. Hamal was a member of one of the proto-nations to form during the later years of the Terran Alliance, the Tikonov Union, and served as one of three provincial capitals within the Union.[5]

Hamal VI, more commonly known simply as Hamal, is the sixth planet in the system and has three moons named Arietis, Natih, and Ras.[1]
Planetary History[edit]
Early History[edit]
Hamal was originally colonized by settlers from the highland regions of South America on Terra, who founded the only major city, Califa Hamal, at the equator.[1]
The Tikonov Union allied with the nearby Chesterton Trade Worlds, and with clashes with other worlds and states escalating from 2202 onwards, the Carinus family of Tikonov gained increasing amounts of influence until they reached a point where they could force institutional change on the Union. This led to the Union merging with the Chesterton Trade Worlds in an administrative and defensive pact, creating an enlarged Tikonov Union organized into three provinces and ruled by a quorum of four rulers known as the Tikonov Tetrarchy. Hamal was one of the three provincial capitals, alongside Chesterton and Tikonov, and would continue to be a provincial capital until at least as late as the formation of the Tikonov Grand Union[5] in 2243.[6]
As time passed, Hamal's importance diminished; other worlds were more habitable, had more resources and soon had larger populations, whilst Hamal became increasingly backwards in comparison; most of the population of Hamal lived in a tribal, nomadic fashion, following the vegetation that grows as the seasons on Hamal changed, and would continue to live in that fashion for more than a thousand years. By the time the Tikonov Grand Union joined the Capellan Confederation[1] in 2366[7] Hamal had lost the importance it once had. The Terran Hegemony subsequently agreed to incorporate Hamal into the Hegemony.[1]
Amaris Civil War[edit]
As a Terran Hegemony world, Hamal became a part of the Amaris Empire during the coup perpetrated by Stefan Amaris. Hamal would remain an Amaris Empire world until September 2772, when the Star League Defense Force Fifteenth Army, operating as a part of the Seventeenth Army Group, liberated Hamal as a part of Operation CHIEFTAIN.[45] The liberation of Hamal wasn't as easy as XL Corps had anticipated; while there were no major problems, there were a number of large pro-Amaris enclaves on Hamal that XL Corps didn't expect, and defeating Amaris' supporters took more time than XL Corps had anticipated, as well as forcing the Corps to recapture territory it already believed to have been pacified.[46]
Succession Wars[edit]
Hamal was one of many Hegemony worlds to be annexed by the Capellan Confederation during the early years of the First Succession War, and was a Capellan holding by 2791.[14] Hamal would remain a Capellan holding until it was conquered by the Federated Suns during the Fourth Succession War, although the expertise of the desert fighters on Hamal earned the respect of the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns during the invasion.[1]
Jihad[edit]
The tribes on Hamal remained technologically poor during the Succession Wars, and when the Word of Blake arrived, they found willing converts among the population; some of the population would continue to remain loyal to the Blakist theology and ideology even during the Dark Age.[1] In July 3081 forces from the allied coalition nearly caught Precentor John Garrick, the Word of Blake's Director of Nuclear Technology, in a safe house in Califa Hamal. Although the coalition forces successfully defeated a bodyguard detachment from the Light of Mankind[47] and even believed briefly that they had captured Garrick, the Blakist Precentor managed to escape through the local sewer system amidst the distraction offered by his bodyguard, leaving the coalition with a body double.[48]
Military Deployment[edit]
3029[edit]
Geography[edit]
Hamal is a cold and dry world, a desert world consisting of a single landmass dominated by frozen tundra and windstorms that the local population refer to as "sand blizzards". Most of the planet remains below freezing; it's only at the equator that temperatures can climb above freezing. There are a number of small, landlocked seas dotted across the surface of the planet; the seas contain mostly crushed ice.[1]
Planetary Locations[edit]
