| + | ===Planetary History=== | ||
| + | Unlike its nearest neighbor, [[Kaus Australis]], Kaus Media had nearly everything the early colonists needed to make a successful colony: Foodstuffs, water, and temperate climate. The only thing they lacked was any sort of easily accessed mineral resource to build industry. After discovering that Kaus Australis had the opposite problem, traders from Kaus Media rapidly established mutually beneficial trade agreements that allowed both worlds to survive.<ref name=DARWp16/> | ||
| − | == | + | ====Succession Wars==== |
| − | + | The strong bonds forged between these two worlds served them well until the [[First Succession War]]. Agents of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] tried to turn the worlds against their [[Draconis Combine]] masters. Pushing too far, the [[Draconis Combine Admiralty]] arrived with several [[WarShips]] and destroyed the city of DeGuilles, home of the government departments that oversaw both of the Kaus planets. Kaus Media and Kaus Australis quickly sued for peace and got back to their trade agreements. Each world now oversees more of its own affairs, but they do maintain a close relationship. It is important to note that generally the residents of Kaus Australis and Kaus Media are not disloyal to the states that oversee them; rather they tend to think of the effect any proposal will have on their worlds first and the overseeing state second.<ref name=DARWp16/> | |

| − | == | + | ====Chism and Kurita Duel==== |
| − | + | In September [[3046]], [[Baron]] [[Rider Chism]] and [[Count]] [[Carson Kurita]] would duel to the death in an end to a long running feud between the two families.<ref name=BV1>''Scenario: Blood Vengeance'', p. 1: "Situation"</ref> | |
| − | + | ====Jihad==== | |
| + | Kaus Australis and Kaus Media were both occupied by the [[Word of Blake]] during the [[Jihad]]; forces from [[Clan Ghost Bear]] assaulted both worlds simultaneously on 6 October [[3075]], shortly after the Ghost Bears had agreed to support [[Devlin Stone|Devlin Stone's]] allied coalition.<ref name="JHS:Tp18">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 18: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp54">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 54: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> | ||
| − | + | ====Dark Age==== | |
| + | Pirate forces coming from the [[Draconis Combine]] attacked the planet, but where repulsed by elements of the [[Kaus Media Planetary Militia]] while the pirates tried to raid the city of Grand Moraine. [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] [[Jason Tuna]] engaged the pirate leader and his actions won the day for the militia.<ref name=BCBW/> | ||

Planetary History[edit]
Unlike its nearest neighbor, Kaus Australis, Kaus Media had nearly everything the early colonists needed to make a successful colony: Foodstuffs, water, and temperate climate. The only thing they lacked was any sort of easily accessed mineral resource to build industry. After discovering that Kaus Australis had the opposite problem, traders from Kaus Media rapidly established mutually beneficial trade agreements that allowed both worlds to survive.[1]
Succession Wars[edit]
The strong bonds forged between these two worlds served them well until the First Succession War. Agents of the Lyran Commonwealth tried to turn the worlds against their Draconis Combine masters. Pushing too far, the Draconis Combine Admiralty arrived with several WarShips and destroyed the city of DeGuilles, home of the government departments that oversaw both of the Kaus planets. Kaus Media and Kaus Australis quickly sued for peace and got back to their trade agreements. Each world now oversees more of its own affairs, but they do maintain a close relationship. It is important to note that generally the residents of Kaus Australis and Kaus Media are not disloyal to the states that oversee them; rather they tend to think of the effect any proposal will have on their worlds first and the overseeing state second.[1]
Chism and Kurita Duel[edit]
In September 3046, Baron Rider Chism and Count Carson Kurita would duel to the death in an end to a long running feud between the two families.[50]
Jihad[edit]
Kaus Australis and Kaus Media were both occupied by the Word of Blake during the Jihad; forces from Clan Ghost Bear assaulted both worlds simultaneously on 6 October 3075, shortly after the Ghost Bears had agreed to support Devlin Stone's allied coalition.[51][52]
Dark Age[edit]
Pirate forces coming from the Draconis Combine attacked the planet, but where repulsed by elements of the Kaus Media Planetary Militia while the pirates tried to raid the city of Grand Moraine. MechWarrior Jason Tuna engaged the pirate leader and his actions won the day for the militia.[53]
Military Deployment[edit]
2786[edit]

Geography[edit]
Kaus Media has five continents named Emparos, Romana, Hyadamos, Gaul, and Normano.[1]
Planetary Locations[edit]
- County of Carson Kurita: noble landhold of Carson Kurita in the early to mid 31st century.[50]
