Planetary History

The planet Niihau is noted for its namesake Niihau Honey, a popular export to the Lyran Alliance.[25]

Niihau was one of the targets of the Skye and Bolan Province invasion of the Free Worlds League in 3068. The invasion by the combined forces of the two Provinces, named Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN, saw Niihau occupied along with the worlds of Autumn Wind and Gannett by the 20th of May 3068.[16] As a part of the peace terms agreed between Marshall Jeremy Brett of the FWLM and Duke Alder Umayr of Bolan - and as a result of battlefield attrition - the Lyran Alliance withdrew it's forces from Niihau by the end of 3069.[17]
