History and Background

The original Lancian colony on Aaki was almost completely decimated in 78 during the Vilani Pacification Campaign and thousands of Makhidkarun colonists were resettled on the world.

Aaki however failed to make an impact as an industrial base and, rather than pull out, it was finally decided by Makhidkarun to use the planet as their local financial and administrative debt collecting capital, the Aaki-Makhidkarun Financial Services (AMF) corporation.
