Solovar

The victim of the first ever full-scale planetary invasion, Solovar had few defences worth speaking of, as they had dedicated themselves to making a success of their new world. With a solid agricultural base and a strong beginning in light industry, they were a rarity among the thin scattering of adventurers who had fled the oppressive strictures of life under the PPB rule on Culmai.

Having established an annual trade agreement with a few of the nearest worlds, word spread that their colony was, at least in comparison to most other struggling worlds, thriving.

While marauders hadn't troubled them as yet, they were aware some worlds had turned to piracy, brigandry, and even planetary raids to steal what they could, emulating the early days of Viking raiders' plundering. Their cosy ignorance was shattered when a world that had given up on self-sufficiency entirely, Namrin, turned their considerable skill for planetary raids into an audacious invasion, using shock and aggression to seize total control of Solovar in just a few days. This began a new and horrific phase of violence and criminality which led to the eventual creation of the Focus Protectorate, and its spacegoing force, Black Fleet.

Symbolically, Solovar was the first world to be liberated, many decades later, by the newly created Black Fleet.
