New Olympia is divided between an independent republic and the [[Marik Commonwealth]]. The planet is home to both the [[Lloyd Marik-Stanley Aerospace School]] and the [[Allison MechWarrior Institute]]. New Olympia has long been a major exporter of foodstuffs. It was home to large agridomes, but few remained after the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]]. Nonetheless, New Olympia is home to many species of consumable fish, including tuna and bass. New Olympia also has a thriving sport fishing industry, with marlin imported from [[Terra]] and the native [[Hodson's Flier|Hodson Flyer]]s.<ref name=HM154/><ref name=HBM60/> Olympica Province became a wealthy vacation getaway because of its proximity to the heart of the Free Worlds League and its independent status that kept it outside of the Marik Commonwealth's tax code. Though League officials tried to close the loopholes, Olympica officials were able to argue that the [[Addendum to the Incorporation]] allowed them to retain their status as a tax haven.<ref name=HBM60/> The "Garden of the Gods" has a thriving tourism industry as well. Many visitors travel there for the winter sports the mountains provide, as well as spa that are located in the region.<ref name=HBM60/> ===Planetary History=== ====Early History==== New Olympia was discovered and settled in the twenty-second century. Different waves of settlers clashed over access to resources, forcing the [[Terran Alliance]] to intervene military twice, in [[2196]] and [[2220]].<ref name=HM154/> When the Terran Alliance fell, the residents of New Olympia formed three different nations, Kasnov, New Greenland, and Olympica. These three republics fought as soon as they were formed. [[Alonzo Marik]] extended an offer to the nations of New Olympia to join his Marik Commonwealth. In [[2265]], Kasnov and New Greenland accepted the offer, but Olympica rejected it. Military efforts to force Olympica into the republic failed thanks to intervention from the [[Principality of Regulus]]. The Mariks recognized Olympica as an independent state.<ref name=HM154 /> Following their entry into the Marik nation, Kasnov and New Greenland merged into the Republic of Kasnov-Greenland. Olympica is formally known as the Independent Principality of Olympica.<ref name=HBM60 /> ====Age of War==== Sited well away from the League's borders New Olympia suffered little direct damage during the [[Age of War]].<ref name=EAp110/> ====Star League Era==== In [[2764]], the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[Sixty-sixth Infantry Division]] was stationed on New Olympia. As tensions between the two governments that ruled the planet began spilling out onto the streets [[Captain-General]] [[Kenyon Marik]] deployed the [[Third Marik Militia]] to the planet on a peacekeeping mission. The Sixty-sixth was ordered to remain on normal duties by the SLDF chain of command, which viewed the situation as a matter internal to the Free Worlds League. After the Third took casualties during the course of their mission a [[battalion]] from the Third lashed out at the Sixty-sixth, apparently out of frustration and resentment over the SLDF remaining inactive during events such as the destructive [[Marik Civil War (28th c.)|Marik Civil War]]. The battalion from the Third attacked a patrol from the Sixty-sixth, prompting the Sixty-sixth to retaliate. The Sixty-sixth nearly destroyed the Third, while Kenyon Marik subsequently claimed that the battalion had gone rogue and had been ignoring orders from the [[Colonel]] in command of the [[regiment]]. The SLDF Intelligence Command believed that the attack may have been an effort by Kenyon Marik to find a way of waging a covert war against the SLDF.<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp4">''Field Report 2765: FWLM'', pp. 4–5: "Goals of the State"</ref> ====Succession Wars==== As during the Age of War, New Olympia sustained little direct devastation during the [[Succession Wars]], although the system's zenith-point [[JumpShip]] yards were destroyed by a Lyran strike during the [[First Succession War]] and some fighting took place on New Olympia during the [[Marik Civil War (31st c.)|Marik Civil War]]. The real damage suffered by the planet was mercantile; its import-dependent economy was hard-hit, though residents managed to keep a decent standard of living.<ref name=EAp110/> ====Jihad==== A [[Word of Blake|Blakist]] tactical nuclear weapon was detonated over Darienbad during the [[Jihad]], although the damage was mild enough that the city continued to function and even hosted post-Jihad financial conferences.<ref name=EAp110/> ====Dark Age==== During the joint [[Lyran Commonwealth|Lyran]]–[[Clan Wolf]] [[Operation HAMMERFALL|invasion]] of the Free Worlds League, New Olympia fell to the Wolves in September [[3139]]. During the fighting, Wolf ''[[Ristar|ristar]]'' [[Alaric Ward|Alaric]] trapped and destroyed the defenders along the Captive River, personally slaying [[Warden-General]] [[Thaddeus Marik (32nd c.)|Thaddeus Marik]].<ref name=ABoWc2/> Following the ceasefire between the Wolves and the League, New Olympia hosted the only dedicated academies in the [[Wolf Empire]].<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 152: "Wolf Empire"</ref> ====ilClan Era==== In early [[3152]], [[Task Force Accord]] from the [[Free Worlds League Military]] invaded New Olympia but by June was locked in a stalemate with the Wolf garrison.<ref name=EAp110/> ===Military Deployment=== {{columns-start|num=3}} ====2764==== * [[Third Marik Militia]]<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp4"/> * [[Sixty-sixth Infantry Division]]<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp4"/> ====2765==== * [[Ninth Atrean Dragoons]]<ref name="FR2765:FWLMp9">''Field Report 2765: FWLM'', p. 9: "Atrean Dragoons"</ref> {{column}} ====2786==== * Ninth Atrean Dragoons<ref name="FSWp138">''First Succession War'', p. 138: "First Succession War Deployment Table - FWLM"</ref> * [[Third Marik Militia]]<ref name="FSWp138"/> ====3050==== * [[13th Division (ComStar)|Thirteenth Division]]<ref name=20YU71>''20 Year Update'', p. 71: "Com Guards Deployment Table"</ref> ====3085==== * [[Second Free Worlds Legionnaires]]<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 91: "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> {{column}} ====3139==== * [[First Covenant Guards]] * [[New Olympia Home Guard]]<ref name=ABoWc2/> ====3145==== * [[2nd Wolf Guards Grenadiers (Clan Wolf)|Second Wolf Guards Grenadiers Cluster]]<ref name=FM:3145p171>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 171: "Clan Force Deployments - Wolf Empire"</ref> {{columns-end}} ===Geography=== The island continent known as Olympica Province is home to the Independent Principality of Olympica.<ref name=HBM60/> New Olympia's other small continent is New Greenland.
