Historical Signifigance

Blandenberg

The Village of Blandenberg was once a M'Chekian settlement on the edge of the forests of T'Nanshi. When the war came, it was quickly turned into a battlefield, and the surviving residents were evacuated south. The village itself became a symbol to M'Chek that T'Nanshi's goal in the war was not simply to drive the M'Chekians from the forests, but to invade and destroy M'Chekian settlements. As such, it was hotly contested through most of the war, and was the site of many battles.

Late in the war, Alpha Corps command (at that time consisting of Cpt. Dala Wennen, Lt. Drake Devilin, Lt. Magnus Khan, and Lt. Spit, along with Frigate Cpt. Ayren Milen) judged that resettling the village with human settlers was symbolically more important for the war effort than continuing the useless bloodshed. In a well-coordinated operation, the Alpha Corps spearheaded the capture of the village before handing it over to Moira Celyn and the Church of Mikon to hold until deliberations would determine the future nature of the settlement. From this point, the settlement grew into its current role of the Blandenberg Protectorate.
