== System History ==
The Chaine Cluster was settled at some point after the end of the [[First Succession War]] and the collapse of the [[Rim Worlds Republic]].<ref name="H:LoTV2p122"/> There was nothing special about the cluster, so the Rim Worlds Republic did not use it for anything other than a JumpShip recharge station. The only system to attract any development was Brekke: The Rim Worlds Republic used it to house a small [[WarShip]] and [[DropShip]] maintenance facility. This facility largely consisted of unpressurized repair bays and a components facility. The fall of the Republic saw the facility abandoned. Brekke was occupied by the [[Empire of the Stars]], a small local polity, and they used it as their main government facility. However, by the late [[thirty-first century]] the Empire of the Stars had died off.<ref name="isp3p40"/> For many years a large number of pirate and smuggling bands used the Chaine Cluster systems as their base.<ref>''Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3'', p. 36</ref>

In [[3064]] Clan Diamond Shark launched [[Operation SWEEP]]. The Diamond Sharks' [[Predator Galaxy (Clan Diamond Shark)|Predator Galaxy]] spent the next five years claiming all seven systems. All the inhabitants of these systems were inducted into the Clan's Laborer Caste. The Sharks quickly established production facilities on Alnabog, Corell, and Hillburg. The Brekke naval yard was upgraded and improved with a mobile factory secured from [[Clan Snow Raven]]. By [[3080]] the facility was five times its original size and could repair most naval vessels. The Sharks used this facility to repair and rehabilitate WarShips from the [[Clan Wolf|Wolves]] and [[Clan Jade Falcon|Jade Falcons]]; in exchange those two Clans provided resources and military production.<ref name="isp3p40"/>
