Brief Planetary History

Colonization & raise of the Sandoval family

The settled by colonist from the First Terran Exodus for its rich black soil and pleasant living conditions. Majority of the lands settlers for farming, soon discovered the world was riched in mineral & oil deposits. However, off planet corporation soon arrive and come into conflict with farmers whom had already claimed the majority of the planet's available land. This resulted into a planetary crisis and collasped of the planetary government. The Robinson's planetary militia commander, David Sandoval, took control of the planet's collapsed government. Declaring himself "Lord Protector", he seized control of the foreign companies assets and lands to stablize the situation. He forged a land-reform bill which shifted control of the world's purchase and sales of theplanet's lands to government control. This resulted his Sandoval family becoming incredibly rich. Though new policy came into place to eased this bill, Sandoval family's become planet's ruling nobility.[10]

With founding of the Federated Suns, Robinson became one of the five seats power in House Davion. Giving Sandoval family title of Prince, controling then the what known as the Terran March. This began what became to be known as the Five Prince Era, which divided rule lead to Davion Civil War. Federated Sun is re-organized and Robinson is made capital of newly formed Draconis March despite Sandoval backing of Rostov.[11]

Star League & Succession Wars

However, its exports of raw materials allowed construction of Dropships & JumpShips, making world wealth and able afford food imports. However, after the fall of the Star League, House Kurita forces invaded and occupid the world for number of decades. Despite its liberation decades later, starvation and destruction of its heavy industries. Only until 31st Century has planet's economic wealth had been restored.

Important Battles

The planet was the seat of the Rostov line. The family hold hugh influence about the troops during the civil war. [14]. Alexander Davion needed the troops and the support badly for the coquest to gain the Federated Suns for himself. The cooperation between Alexander and Dimitri Rostov was difficult. The civil war was decided in the naval battle over Megian. Cassandra Varnay retreat back to the Capellan Confederation with all her hired troops. During the reconstruction phase after the civil war the Prince tried to rebuild the struture of the Suns but the Rostovs were angry and blamed him to be an desposed. Dimitri Rostov gathered troops on the planet but the Prince used overwhelming forces to bring the planet under his control [15]
