Historical Data
With the end of the Solomani Rim War in 1002, the Confederation's former capital Terra (Solomani Rim 1827) was occupied by Imperial forces and the Solomani were forced to establish a new capital approximately thirty parsecs Rimward. Home was selected for its close proximity to Terra physically, for the similarities between its star and Sol, and for its distance from the Imperial border.
- Prior to becoming the Confederation capital, Home's history was uneventful. Small Sancaterrist farming communities dotted the world, many of which still exist in Home's scenic outback.
