===Planetary History===
 +
====Early History====
 +
In [[2414]], The [[Draconis Combine]] captured the world of [[St. John]] during [[Archon]] [[Katherine Steiner]]'s wedding celebration to the [[Duke of Fatima]], [[Deven Reynolds]]. The high importance of St. John to the Commonwealth forced the [[LCAF]] to undertake a major counterattack, led by Duke Reynolds. The offensive that would become known as the [[Battle of St. John (2414)|St. Johns Assault]].<ref name=HSLCp17>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 17: "The Steiner Way"</ref>
 +
 
 +
In [[2415]], another invasion by the LCAF ends with Duke Reynolds' tank destroyed in an overwhelming missile barrage during another failed attempt to retake St. John.<ref name=HSLCp17/>
 +
 
 +
[2417] The LCAF will make two more attempt to take St. John, in [[2417]] and [[2418]], both unsuccessful.{{cn}}
 +
 
 +
When [[Shiro Kurita]] launched his invasion of the [[Principality of Rasalhague]] in an attempt to annex the Principality and add it to the [[Draconis Combine]] during the 2330s and 2340s the brutalities inflicted by the Combine forces were such that many of the survivors fled from the Principality. In some instances, survivors from one or more Principality worlds banded together to found new colonies. Technicians from '''St. John''' joined with survivors from other worlds - craftsmen and artists from [[Predlitz]] and [[Kufstein]] as well as engineers from [[New Bergen]] - to settle the worlds of [[Bensinger]], [[Steelton]] and [[Toland]]. All three worlds were on the outer reaches of settled human space, cold and icy worlds that would subsequently be courted by the growing [[Rim Worlds Republic]].<ref name="TP1Ep17">''The Periphery, 1st Edition'', p. 17: "Inner Sphere Politics"</ref>
 +
 
 +
====Prior to the Star League Civil War====
 +
In [[2764]], the [[47th Royal Mechanized Infantry Division]] of the [[Star League Defense Force]] destroyed a base for the armed group called the [[Great North]] on [[Outpost]], [[New Bergen]] and St. John.  However, the [[SLDF]] troops thought they were defeating a group of [[Periphery]] separatists.  In actuality, the group was made of ethnic Rasalhagians wanted for political and cultural crimes by the [[Draconis Combine]].  The SLDF troops were unknowingly doing the dirty work of oppressive Combine policies.  This revelation nearly caused the entire Division to mutiny.<ref>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 191: "47th Royal Mechanized Infantry Division"</ref>

====Operation REVIVAL====
===3079===
+
During [[Operation REVIVAL]] the planet was conquered by [[Clan Wolf]] in April [[3050]].  The planet was defended by the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th St. Johns Free Brigades and under the command of a hero of [[Rasalhague]]'s fight for independence, ''[[Överste]]'' [[Klinton Meyer]].  Thanks to his aggressive defense ''Överste'' Meyer was able to hold out against [[Supernova (unit)|Supernovas Command]] and Second of the [[341st Assault (Clan Wolf)|341st Assault Cluster]] until [[Star Colonel]] [[Ramon Sender]] forced his surrender by threatening the lives of innocent civilians.  For this "dishonorable action" the Star Colonel was publicly reprimanded by [[Khan]] [[Ulric Kerensky]].<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 58: "First Wave"</ref>

+
Clan Hell's Horses launched an invasion of Clan Wolf holdings in the [[Inner Sphere]] in early 3071, acquiring holdings for their own relocation to Spheroid space. St. John was seized by the Hell's Horses at some point in March or early April, who then consolidated their hold on the world.<ref name="JHS3076p15">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 15: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref>

System Information
X:Y Coordinates-13.447 : 400.874[e]

The St. John system was the location of at least one habitable world and as of 3151 was located in the Clan Hell's Horses Occupation Zone.[1]

Political Affiliation[edit]


St. John[edit]

St. John

Planetary History[edit]

Early History[edit]

In 2414, The Draconis Combine captured the world of St. John during Archon Katherine Steiner's wedding celebration to the Duke of Fatima, Deven Reynolds. The high importance of St. John to the Commonwealth forced the LCAF to undertake a major counterattack, led by Duke Reynolds. The offensive that would become known as the St. Johns Assault.[50]

In 2415, another invasion by the LCAF ends with Duke Reynolds' tank destroyed in an overwhelming missile barrage during another failed attempt to retake St. John.[50]

[2417] The LCAF will make two more attempt to take St. John, in 2417 and 2418, both unsuccessful.[citation needed]

When Shiro Kurita launched his invasion of the Principality of Rasalhague in an attempt to annex the Principality and add it to the Draconis Combine during the 2330s and 2340s the brutalities inflicted by the Combine forces were such that many of the survivors fled from the Principality. In some instances, survivors from one or more Principality worlds banded together to found new colonies. Technicians from St. John joined with survivors from other worlds - craftsmen and artists from Predlitz and Kufstein as well as engineers from New Bergen - to settle the worlds of Bensinger, Steelton and Toland. All three worlds were on the outer reaches of settled human space, cold and icy worlds that would subsequently be courted by the growing Rim Worlds Republic.[3]

Prior to the Star League Civil War[edit]

In 2764, the 47th Royal Mechanized Infantry Division of the Star League Defense Force destroyed a base for the armed group called the Great North on Outpost, New Bergen and St. John. However, the SLDF troops thought they were defeating a group of Periphery separatists. In actuality, the group was made of ethnic Rasalhagians wanted for political and cultural crimes by the Draconis Combine. The SLDF troops were unknowingly doing the dirty work of oppressive Combine policies. This revelation nearly caused the entire Division to mutiny.[51]

Operation REVIVAL[edit]

During Operation REVIVAL the planet was conquered by Clan Wolf in April 3050. The planet was defended by the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th St. Johns Free Brigades and under the command of a hero of Rasalhague's fight for independence, Överste Klinton Meyer. Thanks to his aggressive defense Överste Meyer was able to hold out against Supernovas Command and Second of the 341st Assault Cluster until Star Colonel Ramon Sender forced his surrender by threatening the lives of innocent civilians. For this "dishonorable action" the Star Colonel was publicly reprimanded by Khan Ulric Kerensky.[52]

The Jihad[edit]

Clan Hell's Horses launched an invasion of Clan Wolf holdings in the Inner Sphere in early 3071, acquiring holdings for their own relocation to Spheroid space. St. John was seized by the Hell's Horses at some point in March or early April, who then consolidated their hold on the world.[37]

Dark Age[edit]

At some point between the Second Combine-Dominion War and 3130 St. John was added to the Rasalhague Dominion.[45][53]

In April 3147 St. John was one of three Dominion worlds attacked by the Hell's Horses during Operation NOYAN. The planet was successfully taken and reincorporated into the Hell's Horses Occupation Zone.[49]
