To Start it off, heres me:

On June 22nd, 379 of Aagarthan Calander, the people of the planet Aagartha declared their independence as a republic from a local power. Within a five month period they had claimed the Zaquert, Koen, and the Aagarthan home system of Tarsis as their own. After a signing of peace with their former rulers, the Republic of Aagartha was formerly established on November 3rd, 379 A.C. However, as result of the Aagarthan War of Independence, many settlements and thriving colonies in the Velos Region sought to establish their own country. After the assasination of a prominent Prince, the surrounding nations and settlements within and on the outskirts of the Velos Region began to mobilize their forces for war, and in the thick of it the Aagarthans once again prepare to fight for their independence...

Info on systems

Zaquert
- 4 planets
Two gas giants, one orbiting the other in the outer part of the system. The other two planets, Zequert II and Zequert III, are in their own orbits around the sun. Zequert II is a desert planet, no habitation but with an ocean that covers 20% of the Eastern Hemisphere. There is a small underground facility that houses 4000 workers who mine raw metals for ship building and weapons. The 191st Infantry Birgade is located here. Zequert III is mainly oceania, with a small island chain of 82 islands in the North East Hemisphere, only five of which are able to support a large human population. Three communities exist on one of the Islands, Isop 55. All three are small towns with populations of a little more than 1200. The 175th Marine Birgade is located here.

Koen
- 11 planets
Five have no atmospheres and are not in use, execpt for one, Koen IX. A large facility is located here which acts as the 1st Task Force's HQ. Koen I orbits Koen V. Koen I has an atmosphere suitable for human life. A city is located here, Zanite. Surrounding the city are three rivers, and grasslands. The 663rd Infantry Birgade is located here along with the 512th Armoured Birgade. Koen V is a mountanous planet witch is mainly winter year round. Four communities are on the planet, all have populations under 500.No military untis here. Koen VII is the most colonized. It has a total population of around 18.9 million. It contains swamps in the lower portion of the planet, an ocean that covers 62% of the surface, and a large forsest on all both continents. There are 19 cities and close to around 150 towns. The 113th and 114th Infantry Birgades along with the 252nd Armoured Birgade are located here. There is a group of nine space stations (AZAX 1-9) in orbit above Koen VII that serve as the HQ for both the 77th and 5th Task Forces.
