+ | == Planetary History == | ||
+ | === Early History === | ||
+ | Foochow was colonized in the late twenty-second century, having been discovered almost by accident. The colonists were escaping from China on [[Terra]], and named Foochow after the capital of the Chinese province of Fujian. Having settled on Min-how, Foochow's only continent, the colonists spent the next fifty years fighting a combination of Dobars, native six-limbed carnivores the size of Terran black bears, and disease-bearing insects. By the time the population had managed to carve enough productive land from the jungles that were the predominant terrain feature of Foochow to expand, they had also managed to tame some of the Dobars.<ref name=DARWp98/> | ||
+ | |||
+ | The inhabitants of Foochow didn't create much by way of industry until minerals were discovered on the southwest coast of Min-how; the discovery led to the founding of industries producing electronics using these newly-located mineral reserves. The main export from Foochow continued to be seafood, however, with the bulk of the exports leaving Foochow via Vashura, the planetary capital and largest seaport.<ref name=DARWp98/> | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Succession Wars=== | ||
+ | ====Fourth Succession War==== | ||
+ | Foochow was conquered by the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] during the [[Fourth Succession War]].<ref name=DARWp98/> | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Clan Invasion=== | ||
+ | ====Operation GUERRERO==== | ||
+ | Thirty years after the Fourth Succession War [[Chancellor]] [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] launched [[Operation GUERRERO]] in concert with the [[Free Worlds League]] and reclaimed a number of former Capellan worlds, including Foochow.<ref name=DARWp98/> | ||
− | '' | + | === The Jihad === |
− | ''' | + | Foochow was initially undisturbed by the [[Jihad]], until one of the Capellan [[Warrior House]]s ([[Warrior House Dai Da Chi]]<ref name=Blakist>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [31/12/3069]: "Blakists See Mixed Success, Failure on Capellan Front''</ref>) jumped into the system. The [[Word of Blake]] responded by deploying a small mercenary unit to Foochow, only for the mercenaries to be intercepted during their high-speed burn towards Foochow. The Warrior House had hidden among Foochow's three moons, and having detected the mercenaries, launched an aerospace attack that completely destroyed them.<ref name=DARWp98/> |

The Foochow system was the location of at least one habitable world, Foochow IV, and as at 3145 was located in the Sarna Commonality of the Capellan Confederation.[2][3]
Contents
System Description
The Foochow system is located near the Jonathan and Menkar systems[2][3] and consists of a class F4V primary orbited by eight planets.[1]
System History
The Foochow system was colonized during the First Exodus from Terra in the late twenty-second century[1] and was a member of the Sarna Supremacy prior to the formation of the Capellan Confederation.[4]
Foochow IV
Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Foochow IV - more commonly known simply as Foochow - is the fourth planet in the system and has three moons named Li-Lung, Lung-Wang and Pan-Lung.[1]
Planetary History
Early History
Foochow was colonized in the late twenty-second century, having been discovered almost by accident. The colonists were escaping from China on Terra, and named Foochow after the capital of the Chinese province of Fujian. Having settled on Min-how, Foochow's only continent, the colonists spent the next fifty years fighting a combination of Dobars, native six-limbed carnivores the size of Terran black bears, and disease-bearing insects. By the time the population had managed to carve enough productive land from the jungles that were the predominant terrain feature of Foochow to expand, they had also managed to tame some of the Dobars.[1]
The inhabitants of Foochow didn't create much by way of industry until minerals were discovered on the southwest coast of Min-how; the discovery led to the founding of industries producing electronics using these newly-located mineral reserves. The main export from Foochow continued to be seafood, however, with the bulk of the exports leaving Foochow via Vashura, the planetary capital and largest seaport.[1]
Succession Wars
Fourth Succession War
Foochow was conquered by the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns during the Fourth Succession War.[1]
Clan Invasion
Operation GUERRERO
Thirty years after the Fourth Succession War Chancellor Sun-Tzu Liao launched Operation GUERRERO in concert with the Free Worlds League and reclaimed a number of former Capellan worlds, including Foochow.[1]
The Jihad
Foochow was initially undisturbed by the Jihad, until one of the Capellan Warrior Houses (Warrior House Dai Da Chi[5]) jumped into the system. The Word of Blake responded by deploying a small mercenary unit to Foochow, only for the mercenaries to be intercepted during their high-speed burn towards Foochow. The Warrior House had hidden among Foochow's three moons, and having detected the mercenaries, launched an aerospace attack that completely destroyed them.[1]

- - At this point in time, the unit was at 70% of full strength with a "C" equipment rating. The unit was divided between the Menkar and Foochow systems
Geography
The climate on Foochow resembles a greenhouse and as a result, there are no polar ice caps. Foochow's single continent, Min-how, lies on the planetary equator, and was predominantly covered in jungles when first discovered.[1]
Planetary Locations
- Redswan: the leading industrial city on Min-how[1]
- Vashura: the planetary capital city on the eastern coast of Min-how[1]
