New Aragon was colonized as part of a land scam during the twenty-third century. The planet was cast as a
world with "fertile ground and abundant water" to lure buyers, when in fact most of New Aragon's two continents
of Glastonbury and Dreymon were predominately swamps. To make matters worse, the land was infested with
insect-like creatures carrying more diseases than could be counted.
In spite of this, the colonists drained the swamplands, leaving what proved to be dynamically fertile land that was
able to sustain a large farming population. Additionally, the native amphibian life became a delicacy that was soon
exported as gourmet items. In addition, New Aragon became a leading center for medical research. The capital
of Argos, located on the continent of Glastonbury, is home to the New Aragon Institue of Epidermiology - a
leading Inner Sphere medical research facility.
Of course, New Aragon has also seen its share of military action. When Davion forces, lead by Marshal Peter
Davion captured New Aragon in 2930, the people rebelled against their new masters. It was not until 3013, with
Hanse Davion as Military Governor, that the AFFS restored order; Prince Hanse earned his nickname "The Fox"
whilst on New Aragon. The world's people have been staunch supporters of House Davion ever since.
[3132] New Aragon was colonized as part of a land scam during the 23rd century. This was one of the saddest
chapters of the historical era now known as the Exodus, when New Aragon was settled. The planet was cast as a

In spite of this, the colonists drained the swampland, uncovering what proved to be dynamically fertile land able

preserves are several that have became delicacies and are exported as gourmet items. In addition, New Aragon

Blakist forces found out when they landed on New Aragon. The planetary defenders fought with unbridled
passion against the invaders. The defenders held out against the Blakists at the old Star League forts of
McMichael and Ellison. Only the liberal use of chemical weapons against those forts allowed the Blakists to
secure the planet. The cost of victory was the near-destruction of the planet's agricultural industry. Glastonbury's
largest river, the Graham River, was so contaminated that it wrecked the entire ecosystem of the continent.
New Aragon was originally part of the Federated Suns until the creation of The Republic. New Aragon became
part of Prefecture VI under the control of The Republic. After the fall of the HPG Network Fortress Republic
was created and many of the worlds under its control were set free.

After being released from The Republic, New Aragon fell back under the influence of the Capellan Confederation.
