History[edit]

Domination-sideview 350.jpg

The system's modern name was applied once it was discovered that a colony of Domination lived in one of the gas giant's upper atmosphere. They are presumably an offshoot of the colony at Deseca.

Prior to the Third Imperium, this world was a member of the Interstellar Confederacy.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Domitar has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

Historical Data[edit]

Internal dissension within the Interstellar Confederacy finally resulted in the outbreak of hostilities late in -239 when combined forces from Protalus (Core 0128), Marsus (Core 0127), Ikarus (Core 0325), Oorpic (Core 0324), and Domitar attacked the Confederacy Capitol at Sketola.

The rebel forces, commanded by the fanatical Baron Rolf von Toerbach, swept aside the system's defenses, subdued the orbital starport complex, and landed three crack divisions of Marsian troops on the world's surface. Within two months, the entire surface of Sketola was in rebel hands.

The Confederacy government withdrew to Keplo (Core 1322) and rallied their forces. The Confederacy was essentially cut in half, with the rebels controlling most of the Great Spiral systems in the Bunkeria Subsector, while the loyalists controlled those in the Cemplas Subsector.
