Planetary History
Thorn was one of the worlds that formed a part of the Deep Periphery nation known as the Hanseatic League.[2]
During Escorpión Imperio's conquest of the League in 3040–3041, Thorn was the last system to surrender, roughly fifteen months after the invasion began on 3 January 3040.[1]

Notes
- It is highly likely that the planet's name derives from the city of Toruń in Poland, which, in the Middle Ages, was called Thorn when it was ruled under Teutonic Knights (also, it was the member of real Hanseatic League in years 1264–1411).
