## History

### Colonization Period

Coraron was first colonized in 2086 by an independent venture, with an initial wave of 30,000 colonists. It was nominally allegiant to the UN until 2 January 2200, when its local government declared independence.

### UN Period

Coraron assisted the UN during the First War of Sol, First Interstellar War, Second War of Sol, and Second Interstellar War, but units from Coraron took heavy losses during the Second Interstellar War, leading to intense political debate over whether the UN should have a role in controlling the system. This led to a brief period of political unrest, from roughly 2196-2200, until 2 January 2200, when the local government declared its independence. The UN chose not to attack the system, having suffered massive losses in the recent war, and it peacefully transitioned to being an independent system before ultimately joining the Asgardian Alliance.

### Independent Period

From 2 January 2200 until 14 August 3596, Coraron was an independent star system. During this time, it was mostly peaceful, except for a fairly major conflict that occurred in the system during the Perth War. In this battle, the government of Coraron refused to ask for assistance from any of the major factions' naval forces, though some LABS naval units from inside the system joined the Coraron navy to repel the Perth forces. Coraron took heavy losses during the battle with the Perth; over 10 million civilian casualties and 757,000 military casualties; the total population at the time was 180 million citizens, over 150 million of which lived on Ubos. The Perth landed over 25,000 troops near Natalles, a major city on Ubos, and proceeded to shell the city. Its economy and industrial sector were devastated and never fully recovered, and after the instability caused by the Twenty Years' War, the local government decided to join the Asgardian Alliance.

### Asgardian Period

From 14 August 3596, the Coraron system was a member of the Asgardian Alliance. During this period it was mostly peaceful, with no major conflicts.

### 4025 Guide to the Universe

Coraron is an important Asgardian system; while not on the level of Ridonn, Asgard, and Bergeron, it still provides large amounts of metals, which are desperately needed by the generally metal-poor Alliance. Coraron is more safe than Ridonn, however; it has more than twice the number of patrolling police and naval squadrons that Ridonn has. The commerce markets in Coraron are famous for their favorable prices, so many traders come to this system. Inevitably, this attracts pirate squadrons to the system as well; some spacelanes in this system are safe, especially the main spacelanes between the jump gate and the jump gate station and Coraron 2. Trading in Coraron is simple; bring in compressed gases and buy metals or products that require the use of metals in their manufacturing process. Given the large number of high-level stations in Coraron, it is fairly easy to find good repair facilities and shipyards; the best of these, as usual, are to be found at the jump gate station. The pirates that typically come to this system are not very well-armed, so a ship like a Dominator could probably handle most of them. Coraron has several small asteroid belts, so mining is another profitable option in this system. Note that an Asgardian Navy base is located in the asteroid belt closest to the star; this is restricted space, and only Asgardian Navy vessels are allowed to enter it.
