Ten small continents (Adaven, Armagosa, Darrough, Hannapah, Ione, Nyala, Ophir, Pactolus, Tolicha, and
Wahmonie) dot Kawich's large but shallow seas. Kawich's soil is generally poor, but its rocks are rich in metal
ores, minerals, and petroleum. Although mining and refining industries boomed on Kawich under the Terran
Hegemony, Kawich's population has always retained a frontier attitude given the hardscrabble land they must
work.
After the fall of the First Star League, the Federated Suns laid claim to Kawich. Kawich remained under the
banner of House Davion, except for a brief period during the Third Succession War when the Capellan
Confederation held the planet. During the Fourth Succession War, House Davion lured House Liao into an
ill-fated counterattack on Kawich involving famous units like the Eridani Light Horse and the Davion Guards.
Today, locals still refer to the BattleMech carcasses on the hills and groves around the towns of Samanan, Jamou,
and the capital of Dotara as "Liao's metal tombstones".
[3132] Kawich was originally part of the Federated Suns until the creation of The Republic. Kawich became
part of Prefecture IV 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.
[3135] Kawich was released from the control of The Republic.
After being released from The Republic, Kawich fell under the influence of the Tikonov territory.
