Donegal IV, more commonly known simply as Donegal, is the fourth planet in the system and has a single moon named Seth's Jewel. A major industrial and commercial world, Donegal is home to numerous major and minor industrial and business concerns. And has been a national or regional capital world since at least as early as the early [[twenty-fourth century]].<ref name=HBS84/> Orbiting above Donegal during the [[thirty-first century]] were two space settlements known as "The Tin Cans," which were as well developed as the planet below.<ref name=HBS84/>

===Planetary History===
====Exodus====
In [[2301]], [[Seth Marsden]] arrived on Donegal, having recently departed the world of [[Skye]]. Marsden had been the most trusted advisor to [[Ian McQuiston (23rd c.)|Ian McQuiston]], the owner of the vast [[Skye Traders]] conglomerate and ruler of the [[Federation of Skye]]; whatever the reasons for their quarrel—some believed that Marsden had deliberately initiated the argument, to give himself a pretext to leave—Marsden planned on establishing his own realm in a fashion similar to that of his former employer. Beginning with the [[Donegal Freights and Goods]] company, Marsden took Donegal, a generally pleasant world with abundant resources and an amiable climate, and followed in McQuiston's footsteps;<ref name="HS(TLC)p10"/> by [[2314]]<ref name="HB:HSp12"/> Marsden had brought Donegal enough influence in the region that it became the capital of a new state, the Protectorate of Donegal.<ref name="HS(TLC)p10"/>

====Third Succession War====
The [[Commonwealth Church Council]] was founded in [[2908]] by leaders from thirty of the most significant Christian denominations within the Lyran Commonwealth, the so called Council of 30 focused on dialogue between various Christian confessions, as well as with the Lyran government.<ref name=HSLCp102>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 102</ref><ref name=HHSp123>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 123</ref>

The [[Commonwealth Free Trade Society]] was founded in [[3013]] by Lyran merchants and corporate leaders with interests in the Commonwealth's border regions, in order to campaign for looser trade restrictions and lower trade taxes with foreign realms. Its methods to advance these aims included funding candidates to political office who were sympathetic to their cause.<ref name=HSLCp92>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 92</ref><ref name=HHSp128>''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 128</ref>

====The Jihad====
The Word of Blake launched a raid on Donegal between 14 and 17 March [[3068]], while also launching raids on [[Coventry]] and [[Hesperus II]]; the three raids all featured support from Blakist [[WarShip]]s or [[Pocket WarShip]]s.<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> The WoB deployed the ''[[Blake's Redemption]]'', a ''[[Vincent (WarShip class)|Vincent]]''-class corvette that with precise marksmanship with its capital ship weapons and a few nuclear devices was able to reduce to rubble in less than two days [[Nashan Diversified]]'s and [[Lockheed/CBM]]'s complexes, and all key infrastructure and landmarks of the planet's major cities despite a fervent resistance by the [[First Donegal Jaegers]] aerospace wing. After that the ship went silent though still in orbit.<ref name="O:LAp22"/><ref name="TCp110">''Total Chaos'', pp. 110–112: "Donegal"</ref> The Word of Blake then took advantage of the reduced defenses on Donegal to launch a full assault on 27 February [[3070]], attempting to occupy the world in a fashion similar to that already used against [[Hesperus II]].<ref name="JHS3076p12">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 12: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp49">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 49: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>

In [[3070]], a small Lyran Alliance relief force attempted to break the Blakist blockade of Donegal; led by the ''[[Ian McQuiston (Individual Fox-class WarShip)|Ian McQuiston]]'', the relief force was forced to withdraw by the WoBS ''Blake's Redemption''.<ref>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 24: "Operation: Steel Hammer" - Donegal</ref><ref name="TCp110"/>

In February 3070, the Word dropped the [[2nd Division (Word of Blake)|Second Division]] on Donegal. Having already hidden several [[Level II]]s, the First Donegal Jaegers lasted for one week after surrendering, with the Ian McQuiston trying to escort a relief force to the planet but suffering heavy damage in the failed attempt.<ref name="TCp110"/>

The Blakists quickly converted any industrial capacity left to further the Blakist war effort. Over the last half of 3070, the Word transferred in the [[18th Division (Word of Blake)|Eighteenth Division]] under [[Precentor]] [[Ernst Regan]]. The Command had issues as the planet was still full of rebels.

In early 3072, the [[Fiftieth Shadow Division]] was dispatched to Donegal mere weeks before Victor Steiner-Davion's rescue operation arrived.<ref name="TCp110"/>

After more than one year of blockade, on 14 February [[3072]] a coalition of forces from [[ComStar]], [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]], and the [[Lyran Alliance Armed Forces]] all under the command of [[Precentor Martial of ComStar|Precentor Martial]] [[Victor Steiner-Davion]] successfully broke the blockade and liberated Donegal.<ref name="JHS3076p21">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 21: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp50">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 50: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>

In December [[3076]], it was speculated by the media that Donegal was the site of planning or troop movements in support of an anticipated invasion of the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]] due to a combination of factors, which included the arrival of the ''[[Monarch]]''-class DropShip ''[[Little Big Horn]]'', believed to be the command vessel of [[General]] [[Belle Lee]] of the allied coalition. The ''Little Big Horn'' arrived with almost no notice at a cargo port near Wytheville operated by [[General Dynamics]] on the 2nd of December; the Wytheville port which was then promptly placed under a security lockdown for all traffic other than allied coalition forces. All civilian traffic was routed to the Meridian drop facility, roughly 1,000 km away, while at least three secure convoys landed at Wytheville in the next 24 hours.<ref name="JHS:Tp16+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 16–17: "Big Doings On ''Little Big Horn''"</ref>

Adding credence to the media speculation was the arrival of the security detachment associated with [[Duke]] [[Robert Kelswa-Steiner]]; it was rumored that the other two private convoys to land at Wytheville were bringing [[Field Marshal]] [[Katheryn Sandoval-Ito]] and ''[[Tai-shu]]'' [[Isoroku Kurita]] and their attached entourages to Wytheville from Bladensburg, where both parties had been staying in seclusion for several weeks. While this wasn't confirmed, the planetary Civilian Space Transit department did confirm that at the time, there were more than seventy assorted vessels present at the local zenith jump point, with several other DropShips inbound.<ref name="JHS:Tp16+"/>

====Dark Age====
Donegal was attacked in February [[3143]] by [[Clan Wolf]] during the Wolves' offensive towards [[Tharkad]]. The defending [[17th Donegal Guards|Seventeenth Donegal Guards]] weakened the invaders with hit-and-run strikes until they withdrew three weeks later.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 127, "Seventeenth Donegal Guards"</ref>

After [[Clan Jade Falcon|Clan Jade Falcon's]] conquest of Arc-Royal in [[3146]] the surviving members of Clan Wolf-in-Exile moved to Donegal.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 26</ref>

By October [[3150]], [[Malvina Hazen]] had assembled several Jade Falcon [[Cluster|Clusters]] in nearby systems, intending for Donegal to be her next conquest, and the LCAF reinforced the planet's garrison. The anticipated invasion never occurred, as news that [[Alaric Ward]] and [[Clan Wolf]] were closing on [[Terra]] prompted Hazen to abandon the invasion plan and divert Clan Jade Falcon's efforts towards humanity's homeworld instead.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', pp. 91–92</ref>

===Geography===
Donegal is a temperate world rich in wildlife and resources.<ref name=HBS84/> There are three continents named Dunellan, Hinterlands, and Lockenar.<ref name="O:LAp22"/>
{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
The database of the ([[apocryphal]]) 1989 video game ''[[MechWarrior (1989 Video Game)|MechWarrior]]'', set around the year [[3025]], gives a population of 3.651 million for Donegal and describes the environment as "tropical" (out of only three broad impressions of planetary environments given in the game, these being "desert," "ice," and "tropical"). The description one-liner reads: "Rich in diamonds, rare metals, and traders."
