Vik with capital city - the Thule city - and planet primary starport was also known from Fresdon Plain, Fresdon Desert, and the Great Fresdonian River.

History

Planet was a member of Principality of Rasalhague till it was captured by the Draconis Combine at the dawn of it's creation. Because of it's isolation the world wasn't considered as strategical target, and so it avoided any victims during Succession Wars and later on the Ronin Wars. The first real conflict happened in 3050 when Clan Ghost Bear captured the planet. The Third Bear Striker Cluster defeated the First Hussars and left the 312th Assault Trinary to garrison the world. This unit was destroyed in an uprising during Wave Two of Operation Revival.[1]

Thule was used as a planet to trap Helmar Valasek and his raiders by the Black Widow Company during their contract to House Kurita.[2]
