====Age of War====
The first colony on Lee was founded by settlers from [[New Macao]],<ref name="HDFSp27">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 27: "The War Leader"</ref> and Lee was a member of the Capellan Hegemony during the four decades the Hegemony existed. As a border world within the Capellan Hegemony, Lee was subject to heavy attacks from Kluanian pirates in [[2305]] and [[2306]]. Hired by the [[Sarna Supremacy]] during the [[Capellan-Supremacy War]], the pirates inflicted heavy damage on a number of Capellan border worlds, forcing the Hegemony to constantly redeploy troops to defend its worlds rather than continuing to stage attacks on [[Sarna]].<ref name="HLCCp14"/>

When the successor to the Hegemony, the Capellan Commonality, signed the [[Acala Pact]] with the Federated Suns in [[2345]],<ref name="HDFSp26"/> Lee became a part of the Federated Suns.<ref name="HDFSp27"/> In [[2363]], the Prime Minister of the Capellan Commonality, [[Seluk Tucas]], recalled his brother from [[New Avalon]] - his brother being the Commonality Ambassador. The Ambassador vanished mysteriously on the way back to Capellan space, and Tucas used this as a pretext for a general mobilization amongst the nations he'd made allies within the [[Capellan Zone]]. By the end of 2363, the combined strike force included units from the Capellan Commonality, the [[Tikonov Grand Union]] and the [[St. Ives Mercantile League]]. The strike force represented the best of the armed forces from the various states, including the [[Capellan Reserve Cavalry]], [[Morcock's Rangers]], the [[Seluk's Principia]], the [[1st Tikonov Lancers|First]] and [[Third Tikonov Lancers]], [[Seneca's Fusiliers]] and the Prime Minister's household guards.<ref name="HLCCp25"/>

In [[2930]], the Federated Suns captured Lee, especially as ''[[Stuka]]s'' from the [[Seventeenth Avalon Hussars]] defeated Capallen air lances from [[Hurloc's Hussars]] and [[Freemont's Cuirassiers]].  Lee would quickly become a regional supply hub and major repair center for [[aerospace fighters]] and increasingly rare [[Land-Air 'Mech|Land-Air 'Mechs]].<ref name="HLCCp93"/><ref name="HLCCp94">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 94: "Freemont's Cuirassiers"</ref><ref name="TR3039p220">''Technical Readout: 3039'', p. 220: "Deployment"</ref>

In [[2943]], the Confederation learned several ''[[Wasp LAM]]s'' were being repaired on Lee and launched a deep raid to capture them.  The Federated Suns were tipped off by a double agent allowing the LAMs to be repaired in time to meet the invading force. Unable to obtain space superiority, the Confederation [[DropShip]]s fled the system.<ref name="TR3025p128">''Technical Readout: 3025'', p. 128</ref>

In [[2987]], Chancellor [[Tormax Liao]] would commit the last major reserves of Capellan forces to attack Lee.  This attack was made to help relieve pressure on [[Tikonov]] as it had been attacked no less than six times that year for Federated Suns troops.  After bitter fighting, the Capellan Confederation occupied Lee.<ref name="HLCCp50"/>

In [[2990]], (apparently having recently lost the planet) House Liao attempted to invade Lee. Davion defenders managed to destroy landed Liao aerospace fighters on a field at "Durban" and this forced the Liao attackers to withdraw within a matter of hours.<ref name="TR3O25Rp132"/>
 
  
 
In [[3022]], Chancellor [[Maximilian Liao]] would meet with [[Michael Hasek-Davion]] on Lee in a secret meeting to hammer out future agreements between the two.<ref name="HLCCp54"/>

* ''[[House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)]]'' references the Federated Suns being in control of Lee in [[2761]] on page 85. However, this would be before the [[Amaris Civil War]] ([[2766]]–[[2779]]) and the [[SLDF]] would have resisted any fighting between member states at that time. Also, the fighting referenced would have been after the [[Third Hidden War]] ([[2741]]–[[2752]]) is recognized as being over. The information appears to be in error and is not referenced in this article.

* Several sources list the "The Great Lee Turkey Shoot" as occuring in 2953. Later sources reference 2952 so this article is written to show the more recent information.
