Planetary History[edit]

Outer Reaches Rebellion[edit]

Beginning with the world of Freedom, colony worlds of the Terran Alliance began to declare themselves independent of the Alliance in January 2236. Freedom originally declared itself independent in a form of peaceful protest against an unfair tax burden and restrictive, high-handed behavior from Alliance planetary governors and administrators, but the immediate response from the Alliance Parliament was to begin deploying the Second Interstellar Strategic Combined Assault Force (Second ICAF) to bring Freedom back into line - a campaign that expanded in scope as other worlds, such as Morningside, Sevren and Summit swiftly declared their independence as well.[3]

The Alliance Second ICAF found itself in action on Izar before even reaching Freedom, but Summit was soon the target of military action as well. Deployed to retake Summit was the Twenty-third Alliance Striker Regiment under the command of General Seth Van Dome. Equipped with heavy laser cannon, the Twenty-third initiated a four-month holocaust on Summit that left more than ten thousand civilians dead before redeploying to Freedom to assist the Fourth Para-Cavalry Division in August.[3]

Secession Riots[edit]

In 2978 the people of Summit executed the planetary Duke and declared the planet an independent world.[16] An entire regiment was sent to put down the revolt.[16]

IlClan Era[edit]

Summit's long-held status as a safe world in the Commonwealth's interior changed with the collapse of the Clan Jade Falcon Occupation Zone in 3151. By mid-3152 Summit found itself becoming a border world, nestled as it was near numerous independent systems and micro-states of the Hinterlands. While this was not entirely good news for Summit's population, the planet's infrastructure underwent upgrades and its gold mines profited thanks to the downturn of the C-bill and the national currency.[1]

Military Deployment[edit]

Geography[edit]
