A warm, dry world chronically plagued by violent, long-lasting dust storms, Dyev was settled initially by Russian
and Slavic entrepreneurs hoping to take advantage of the abundant raw metals found throughout the rugged
mountains and dried-out canyons crisscrossing its surface. With the planet's water tied up mostly in two small
oceans and a handful of meager lakes and rivers, the early colonists had to rely on ice ships for their freshwater
needs.

In the latter half of the twenty-fifth century, however, miners digging deep into the Tupik Chasm for a new
vanadium vein instead stumbled upon a remarkable find in the form of a vast underground reservoir of fresh
water. Other such subterranean lakes and seas were discovered deep below Dyev's surface over the following
decades, mostly near the northern hemispheric canyons, and elaborate irrigation systems were devised to bring
this water to the people for farming and general use.

During the Amaris Crisis, the Usurper's troops attempted to poison these reserves to bring the people of Dyev to
heel, and succeeded in irrevocably tainting a third of the underground seas before Kerensky's forces rolled over
them during the liberation. When the Draconis Combine claimed Dyev after the League's fall, the Kuritan
leadership directed more energies toward restoring the planet's many damaged mining operations than addressing
the water shortage, and thus Dyev has relied more and more on ice imports over the centuries that followed.

Despite this handicap, however, this world has prospered through the years of war, exporting valuable metal ores
such as vanadium, chromium, and even a limited quantity of germanium - all valuable to the production of heavy
industrial and military equipment. The capital city of Dyev, Novaya Mensk, is located in the northern hemisphere,
on the eastern shore of the Morye Syevir ocean, and serves as the commercial and administrative heart of the
planet.

Meanwhile, Trogport, a sprawling spaceport city just south of the larger Aleutican Ocean in the southern
hemisphere, is the planet's primary connection to interstellar commerce. Trogport also serves as the home for a
majority of the local aerospace defense forces, and as home to the headquarters offices of several local mining
concerns.

[3132] Dyev was originally part of the Draconis Combine until the creation of The Republic. Dyev became part
of Prefecture I 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] Dyev was released from the control of The Republic.

After being released from The Republic, Dyev fell under the influence of the Vega territory.
