Harloc V

Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard

Harloc V - more commonly known simply as Harloc - is the fifth planet in the system.[1]

Planetary History

The single continent on Harlock is home to a number of deadly predatory species. As a consequence, the human colonists developed a very martial society, a tradition that continued into the Dark Age and which made Harloc an obvious location for establishing a Duchy Regional Training Center.[1] The Harloc RTC is credited with being responsible for producing the prestigious Harloc Raiders regiment, an association that the RTC took a great deal of pride in; high-achieving cadets at the RTC would often attempt to use their grades and connections to gain an assignment to the Raiders, even after the regiment was no longer a native command.[7]

During the Jihad, when Duke George Hasek of the Capellan March launched his offensive against the Capellan Confederation under the name Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE, Harloc was one of the worlds targeted as the Federated Suns forces encircled the worlds of the former St. Ives Compact. Harloc was captured by the 2nd of July 3068.[8]
