History & Background (Dossier)

The Imperial colony of Land's Ho was overrun at the start of the First Frontier War, and by the end of the Second Frontier War, most of the original colonists had returned to the Imperium. Some members of the Zhodani occupation force liked the world, and petitioned the Zdiadlevepra subsector council to recolonise it. The locals encourage young adults to emigrate to other Consulate worlds to find work, and many found a place in the Consulate military.
