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.<ref name=DARWp98/>
  
 +
== 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===
* [[2366]] - [[Sarna Supremacy]] <ref name="HB:HLp17">''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 17, "Capellan Confederation Founding, 2366"</ref>
+
====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/>

===3145===
'''Foochow''' was settled by Chinese immigrants from [[Terra]]. The early settlers found a warm world that had very small ice caps on its poles. The settlers found that most of the first half-century coping with diseases and the Dobar, large six-limbed predators reminiscent of black bears. Once the Dobar menace was contained and the diseases were controlled, Foochow's inhabitants turned their attention to aquaculture. For most of it's history Foochow has been a large exporter of fish and seafood. The discovery of minerals and rare elements also gave birth to an electronics industry, most of it centered on the city of Redswan. The planet's capital (and largest producer of seafood) is Vashura, located to the eastern part of Foochow's one continent, Min-How.<ref name=DARWp98/>

:- 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.<ref name=DARWp98/>

Revision as of 07:37, 4 June 2020

This article is undergoing revision as part of Project: Planets, a collaborative effort to improve BattleTechWiki's coverage of planets and systems. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can add your name to the list of volunteers.

This article has completed Phase 5 of the Overhaul effort.

Note: X and Y are coordinates (light years on XY plane) relative to Terra at (0, 0)

System Information
X:Y Coordinates88.919 : -97.499[e]
Spectral classF4V[1]
Planet(s)8[1]

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]

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]
