	The news agency [[Donegal Broadcasting Company]] sent a vessel packed with advanced sensor equipment to the Alarion system in early April [[3078]] to investigate Alarion from orbit, to see if they could identify any signs of life; the ship spent five days in orbit, looking for hope that someone had survived the combination of nuclear and biological weapons the Word of Blake had rained down the planet.

Alarion was the administrative capital of the Alarion Province within the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] and later the Lyran Alliance and was home to a number of industries including [[JumpShip]] and [[WarShip]] manufacturers. The surface of Alarion was also home to a manufacturing facility owned by [[Bowie Industries]] and the [[Alarion Naval Academy]]. ===Planetary History=== ====Early History==== Colonized at some point after the formation of the Lyran Commonwealth, the first attempts to settle on Alarion were nearly the last. The arrival of the first settlers inadvertently wiped out large sections of the local wildlife, while half the settlers died from the effects of a combination of native and terrestrial diseases. The Commonwealth was still a young nation at this point, but the Commonwealth government moved to salvage the colonization effort by imposing strict regulations on planetary development. The government measures were intended to encourage commercial and industrial growth in a sustainable fashion, while also strengthening the local ecology.<ref name=HBSp73/> The combination of a strict quarantine and stringent settlement directives proved effective, and remained in place throughout the history of Alarion; despite the restrictions Alarion became a heavily industrialized world, a provincial capital and a major defense manufacturing asset, producing [[aerospace fighter]]s and [[BattleMech]]s along with various spacecraft.<ref name=HBSp73/> The settlers who colonized Alarion were mostly either German, Romanian or English in origin or heritage and this influenced both the local architecture and the languages that became dominant on the planet over the centuries. Even as late as the [[thirty-first century]] the architecture was noticeably European in feel, while German and Romanian remained the most popular languages in use among the population. The population were largely opposed to conflict, but at the same time remained committed to maintaining a strong defense on the world.<ref name=HBSp73/> ====Age of War==== Alarion was the site of one of the Lyran Commonwealth's earliest [[BattleMech]] factories in the years after Lyran commandos stole the technical and manufacturing information on these large engines of war from the [[Terran Hegemony]]. Unfortunately for the Commonwealth, in 2462—just three years after the Lyran armed forces first successfully deployed BattleMechs on the battlefield—a number of disaffected employees from the BattleMech factory on Alarion defected to the [[Free Worlds League]], taking the technical details needed for the League to begin its own manufacturing program with them. [[Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth|Archon]] [[Alistair Steiner]] was furious at the loss and had the security staff responsible for guarding these industrial and technological secrets tried for treason through inaction, imprisoning many for life and even executing several.<ref name="HS(TLC)p21"/> ====Reunification War==== As the [[Star League Defense Force]] completed the first wave of attacks in [[Operation MAILED FIST]]—the name given to the [[Star League]] intervention into the civil war that had been raging across the [[Rim Worlds Republic]] since [[2575]]—reprisal attacks from Republican forces against worlds within the Lyran Commonwealth were anticipated. What wasn't anticipated was the [[Rim Worlds Army]] launching a successful deep raid against Alarion, a secure interior world within the Commonwealth and an important industrial world.<ref name="H:RWp132+">''Historical: Reunification War'', pp. 132–133: "Alarion (December 2581)"</ref> The unit responsible for the raid was the [[Fourth Amaris Fusiliers]], a unit which supported the [[Rim Provisional Government]] and which was assigned as the garrison unit for the worlds of [[New India]] and [[Urjala]]. A [[battalion]] from the Fourth managed to evade the various border patrols established by the SLDF and the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] and traveled to Alarion, which at the time was three jumps away from the border between the Republic and the Commonwealth.<ref name="H:RWp132+"/> The raiding party from the Fourth grounded on Alarion on 9 December [[2581]], having been mistaken for an ore-carrying vessel from [[Carlisle]] that was expected to arrive at around the same time; the Fusiliers landed at the port facility attached the planetary capital of Craiova, achieving total surprise over the local forces when their [[BattleMech]]s emerged and began to wreak havoc. The Fusiliers managed to inflict substantial damage to the port before retreating back to their [[DropShip]] and fighting a running eight-day space battle with the local LCAF contingent all the way back to their waiting [[JumpShip]].<ref name="H:RWp132+"/> The repercussions of the raid on Alarion went beyond the substantial disruption to the local economy caused by the raid itself; Archon [[Viola Steiner-Dinesen]] believed that the raid was evidence that the Rim Worlds Army was far more capable and aggressive than the planning assumptions made by the SLDF had indicated, and that the scope of Operation MAILED FIST should be broadened to include the entire of the Rim Worlds Republic rather than those worlds in close proximity to the [[Dark Nebula]]. This put the Archon at odds with [[General]] [[Nathan Isaacson]], the SLDF officer commanding [[Task Force MAILED FIST]], causing a rift that would last for the duration of the campaign, but the threat of the Archon removing the logistical and economic support provided by the Commonwealth was enough to convince the SLDF to broaden the scope of Operation MAILED FIST.<ref name="H:RWp132+"/> ====FedCom Civil war==== By the end of the [[FedCom Civil War]], the population of Alarion had settled almost all of the islands on the planet as well as the vast majority of the two major continents, with five million people living in the planetary capital city, Craiova, alone. Craiova was also home to the second largest spaceport on the city; the largest spaceport was actually located within the Bowie Industries factory complex. Alarion was ringed with satellite facilities that supported the Port Sydney Naval Shipyards, which at the time were the only shipyards in the Lyran Alliance capable of both maintaining and manufacturing WarShips, and the Alliance had founded the Alarion Naval Academy on the planet accordingly.<ref name=HBSp73/> Despite the damage inflicted on worlds in the Alarion Province by the deep raids conducted by the [[Free Worlds League Military]] during the late [[thirtieth century]] the population of Alarion itself held no particular grudge against the Free Worlds League, placing blame instead at the feet of Archon [[Alessandro Steiner]]. As a consequence many companies on Alarion were still willing to trade with the League.<ref name=HBSp73/> Despite the apparent equanimity of the population regarding the League, tensions were high on the planet because of [[Duke of Alarion|Duke]] [[Anatoly Serfass]]' actions during the FedCom Civil War, with pressure mounting among the public for him to step down because of his support for Archon [[Katherine Steiner]] and his jailing of a number of prominent antiwar protestors.<ref name=HBSp73/> ====The Jihad==== The [[Word of Blake]] struck at Alarion on 12 April [[3069]], the same day they attacked the [[Federated Suns]] world of [[Galax]], evidently targeting systems capable of manufacturing [[WarShip]]s. The Blakist forces didn't only use WarShips to demolish the shipyards in the Alarion system and seize every vessel capable of jumping for their own purposes; they also poisoned Alarion's ecosphere with an intensely powerful [[Alarion Hanta Virus|bioweapon]].
