Though it was subject to a few raids from the [[Federated Suns]], the most damaging event in the planet's history occurred on 18 July [[3075]]. A rogue asteroid, eight kilometers wide and identified with the designation SH01378-A, slammed into Narosi.<ref name="JHS:Tp17">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 17: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp54">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 54: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> The Shinonoi government enacted at least three plans to try and divert the asteroid from its course; remote thrusters were mounted on the asteroid, but failed to divert it enough, despite burning up until the asteroid hit the atmosphere, a [[DropShip]], the ''[[Bright Sun]]'', was lost while attempting to use its thrusters to adjust the path of the asteroid, and a number of DropShips and small craft launched multiple nuclear strikes on the asteroid. The last attempt succeeded in dislodging some fragments of the asteroid, but this only created a debris field that followed the asteroid into the atmosphere of Shinonoi. Government efforts to clear the impact zone were complicated by the Shinto Prophet Musashi, who called on the faithful to perform a ''kagura'' dance in the impact zone, convinced that it would drive the asteroid away; just as the government efforts to divert the asteroid failed, so did the ''kami no kura'' performed by the many Shintoists gathered together by Musashi's visions.<ref name="JHS:3076p55p">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 55: "Heavens Afire"</ref>

The resultant explosion leveled the continent, destroying three cities and setting the rest of the continent on fire. The material ejected into the atmosphere blocked sunlight, preventing it from reaching the planet's surface. The result was a severe drop in temperature, with Shinonoi losing approximately 5° Celsius after the impact. The lack of sunlight and lower temperature devastated the agricultural sector. To top things off, the impact also transmitted energy along the fault lines located in the planet's crust, causing earthquakes on Matsuda and Kokuya, the two continents dedicated to agriculture.<ref name=DARWp42/>

When the borders of the [[Republic of the Sphere]] expanded in the 3080s Shinonoi was incorporated into the Republic and Devlin Stone had many people relocated to the planet to reclaim what had been lost as a result of the asteroid strike. By 3130 the recovery efforts had allowed Shinonoi to prosper again; the fisheries of Jukemwa were making their first profits since the asteroid strike, and Shinonoi had become a viable agricultural world once more. The continent showing the least recovery was Narosi, which was still dotted with the blasted remains of dead cities and was still largely a wasteland, although a number of small towns had been established. A new planetary capital, Rising Sun, had been established on Matsuda and was the site of the largest spaceport on Shinonoi. The bulk of the planetary defense force was located near Rising Sun in the city of Kaffeli.<ref name=DARWp42/>

Then these RAF forces came out of the ravine hard. DCMS forces weren't entirely surprised, but they weren't expecting RAF to come on so fast. Their left gave a little, and the whole front rippled.

Shinonoi has four major landmasses: the continents of Jukemwa, Kokuya, Matsuda, and Narosi. Jukemwa lies completely within the northern polar zone of Shinonoi, is largely covered by snow and ice and was considered largely uninhabited. The equatorial continent of Narosi is the smallest of the four continents and has an abundance of mineral deposits and metal ores.<ref name=DARWp42/>
