Planetary Info
Shinonoi has four continents; Two of them are well-suited to agriculture while Narsoi, a smaller equatorial continent has large deposits of metal and mineral ores. As such it became the center of Shinonoi's manufacturing and mining industries. Though it was subject to a few raids from the Federated Suns, the most damaging event in the planet's history occurred on the 18th of July 3075. A rogue asteroid, eight kilometers wide and identified with the designation SH01378-A, slammed into Narsoi.[3][4] The resultant explosion leveled the continent, destroying three cities and setting the rest of the continent on fire. The material ejected into the atmosphere blocked sunlight, preventing it from reaching the planet's surface. The result was a severe drop in temperature, with Shinonoi losing approximately 5 degrees Celsius after the impact. The lack of sunlight and lower temperature devastated the agricultural sector. To top things off, the impact also transmitted energy along the fault lines located in the planet's crust, causing earthquakes on Matsuda and Kokuya, the two continents dedicated to agriculture.
A complete recovery is likely to take decades.
In addition to the physical and environmental damage done to Shinonoi by the asteroid strike, the Combine response to the strike provoked outrage from many Arkab leaders; on the 1st of August, Gunji-no-Kanrei Kiyomori Minamoto joined the coalition leader Devlin Stone in promising aid to Shinonoi, a distinct contrast to the position taken by the Combine following the devastating asteroid strike on Arkab earlier in the Jihad.[3][4]
