Baxley III - more commonly known simply as Baxley - is the third planet in the Baxley system.[1]
Planetary History[edit]
The Succession Wars[edit]
Baxley was a longtime member of the so-called "Skid Row" worlds. Located on the edge of a vast expanse of uninhabited worlds called the Point Barrow-Dothan Desert, Baxley was barely able to support its own population's agricultural needs and also lacked the metal and mineral resources that might have attracted outside investment. Amongst the poorest and most ignorant worlds in the Davion realm, during the Succession Wars, Baxley contributed more potential recruits to ComStar than any other world in the Federated Suns, the planet's impoverished and uneducated population seeing the Blessed Order's representatives as near demigods and treating them with greater reverence than those of the New Avalon Catholic Church.[1]
