Lasodian System

## Major Orbiting Objects

### Lasodia

Lasodia is the only planet in the Lasodian System, making this the smallest nation to be under the Blue Star Federation. Lasodia experiences a very unusual weather pattern, with huge dry fronts followed by heavy cold and rainy fronts. The planet has no axial tilt, which prevents the planet from having any seasons, locking the planet in a permanent subtropical climate. Lasodia orbits in the center area of the habitable zone. Lasodia is heavily reliant on its rice and sugarcane cash crops, which grow exceptionally well on the fertile and climate of Lasodia. The Lasodian People's Government Army does not allow the operation of Orbital Defense Stations (ODS) on Lasodia, relying on their complicated and well designed missile defense system for planetary defense.

#### Native Life

* The stervine is a large carnivorous reptilian ranging in size from 2 to 4 meters in length. The stervine is extraordinarily powerful, with a strong bite force and fast running speed. The only thing the stervine lacks is agility. Stervines are notorious for their ability to mimic the voices of their prey, including the vocals of humans. Stervines are notorious for entering inside cities and causing massive amounts of panic and chaos. Stervines are highly intelligent, and it is believed that stervines have an intelligence level close to humans.

* The lunit is a small marsupial tree dweller. An omnivore, lunits eat anything from small nuts to insects. At only 12cm in length, these tiny creatures are exceptionally social, preferring to live in small pods of 5 or 6 lunits. Lunits are gliders, using stretched skin flaps along their legs to glide themselves from tree to tree. Lunits have small bushy tails to guide them while gliding.

* The krotomanon is a small feline with furred wings. With colorations of dull brown and bright greens, krotomanons are great flyers, often using flight as a hunting tactic when hunting for lunits. Krotomanons reach a length of around 1 meter, and are commonly referred as Lasodian Kits, and are a popular pet for Lasodians.

* The marseve is a winged canine with large leathery wings, and black fur. Merseves are nocturnal, and are only seen active at night. During the day, merseves rest in caves or ravines that dot the planet’s surface. Marseves are also very shy and elusive creatures, sparking many myths and superstitions about them. One example is that if a person sees a marseve outside during daylight hours, it is considered as a bad omen.

#### Military Bases

##### San Thihope Naval Base

The San Thihope Naval Base is an underground naval base and yard comprising of 557,000 personnel, with dockyard space of 23 ships. The San Thrihope Naval Base is reserved for the Lasodian Naval Defense.

##### Venbridge Research

Known for its development in cyber warfare, Venbridge Research is an underground intelligence facility that specializes in cyber attack and defense. With 59,000 personnel stationed at the facility, Venbridge Research holds a dockyard space of 5 ships, 5,000 fighters, and 7,000 vehicles. Venbridge is notorious for the infamous Zeta-12 hack: A dangerous trojan virus that at one point caused the destruction of an entire Republic of Phoenix Naval Armada during the First Solar War. Another dangerous cyber attack software developed by Venbridge Research is the Capricorn Virus, a devastating computer worm virus that crippled operations for the Republic of Phoenix during the Battle of Lasodia.

##### Lasodia Military Base

The only military base on Lasodia owned and operated by the Blue Star Federation, Lasodia Military Base is a small military base, with a 12 ship space, 3,000 small spacecraft and 7,000 vehicle storage, and 48,000 personnel Lasodia Military Base is marked as the smallest military base of the Blue Star Federation, and is the only base on Lasodia not built underground. The base was partially destroyed from planetary bombardment during the Battle of Lasodia, during the First Solar War, but was rebuilt in 2119.

## Government

The Lasodian Peoples Government is a parliamentary republic, with a parliament seat of 37, and a head seated minister. Minor affairs are handled by city representatives and their governments, and more serious affairs are handled by the Lasodian Peoples Government Parliament. The Lasodian Peoples Government is an authoritarian government, relying on control and the military to maintain and restrict the peoples freedoms for their own safety.

## Military

The Lasodian Peoples Government Army (LPGA) is a large volunteer army of around 4,564,000 personnel. The LPGA relies primarily on conservative measures, implying a defensive military over an offensive military. The LPGA has developed a complicated and efficient cyber warfare and missile defense network. With 4,000,000 personnel in the LPGA Army, 510,000 personnel in the LGPA Defense Fleet, and 54,000 personnel in the intelligence division. The LPGA is a reliant and power intelligence group, with it's use in cyber warfare as a a key importance for the Blue Star Federation. Currently, there are 45 ships in the LPGA fleet, along with 25,000 small spacecraft, and 75,230 vehicles in the LPGA arsenal

## Culture

The Lasodian Peoples Festival of History and Culture is a massive celebration of the history of humanity, from the beginning of human evolution to the current period. Many events include displays of life like models of the early humans, and many more historical significant events are featured in this festival. This festival occurs every 426 days.

## Involvement in the First Solar War

### The Battle of Lasodia

The Battle of Lasodia was the failed capture and invasion of the planet Lasodia during the First Solar War. it was the second major loss for the Republic of Phoenix against the Blue Star Federation after the Battle of Sol in the Sol System. The 5 day battle lasted from 14 December to 19 December, 2117. The Battle of Lasodia is known for the incredibly damaging cyber warfare campaign the defending nation used against the Republic of Phoenix, which crippled the invading fleet enough to cause a near total destruction of both Republic of Phoenix fleets.

#### Summary of Battle

On the 14 December 2117, the remaining force of Task Force 9 under the command of Shakira Pevochik, along with the 34th Naval Armada under the command of Uri Jorvid, warped to the planet of Lasodia with the intent to invade the planet. The Republic of Phoenix emmediately engaged the defense fleet, the 4 hour skirmish did little to either side, and soon both sides kept a distance to each other out of range of most weapons. On the 15 December at 1743 standard time, the Lasodian Peoples Government Army launched around 12 Rayan-225 Interplanetary Missiles, with targets aimed at lead or important Republic of Phoenix Ships. Of the 12 targets, only 4 made their mark, completely destroying 2 ships. the Lasodian Peoples Government Army began to send volleys of 5 missiles every 4 hours until the 17 of December, Between the 16 to 17 of December both sides exchanged missiles and dogfights, using long range warfare tactics to weaken each other out. On the 18 December 1156 standard time, Admiral Shakira Pevochik ordered the remaining fleet to charge to the planet, and begin an invasion. Immediately engaging the defense fleet, missiles were sent from the planet with devastating results as close ship to ship combat quickly became the main focuse, making the use of missiles inoperative at the time. During the battle, one of the officers onboard a Republic of Phoenix Frigate detected an urgent message from the high command, and answered it. The message was actually the Capricorn Virus, developed by Venbridge Research, the virus quickly spread using the unencrypted communication links and soon most of the fleet's ships systems were infected with the virus, slowly ships began to cripple and drift away from the battle, as targets for missiles. The Capricorn Virus brought devastating results as missiles began to destroy crippled ships. On the 19 December 0134 standard time the remaining Republic of Phoenix Fleets warped away, some carrying the virus, which would disable the ship while in warp and cause the the destruction of the ship, other had encrypted channels on only, and were saved from being effected the virus.
