[3132] In many respects Lambrecht was considered an ideal candidate for colonization. Abundant mineral and
metal deposits, ripe for mining and refining on the surface and in the orbiting debris field from a failed moon,
promised a booming industrial economy, while fertile soil, terrestrial seasons, and a biosphere suitable for human
life all described a virtual paradise. The only drawback, settlers quickly learned, was that the planet was entering
a stage of geological settling, stirred constantly by gravitational tides caused by its large G6-class sun. The
resulting earthquakes, common all over the world, have generally been mild, but prevented the colonists from
establishing large structures or concentrated cities, a trend that continues despite advances in building materials
and planetwide expertise in earthquake damage-control procedures. As a result, Lambrecht's five island
continents are dotted with small to medium-sized towns, the largest of which, the planetary capital of Middle
Park, boasts a population of just 967,000.
During the Star League era, Lambrecht became one of the League's most heavily fortified worlds, ironically
enough, because of its chronic tremors. As home to the University of Lambrecht, one of the Star League's
"Golden Ten" institutions of higher learning, and a school geared toward the hard sciences (such as physics,
astronomy, and geology), the League chose Lambrecht as a test bed for a Castle Brian design using high-boron
alloy, a rare building material resistant to earthquakes. Six Castles Brian were constructed on Lambrecht by the
mid-twenty-fifth century, including one that housed the Success Mint, which printed currency for the Draconis
Combine. During the Amaris crisis, Lambrecht was hit pretty hard, with the Usurper's troops obliterating four of
the Castles Brian, the University of Lambrecht, and the Success Mint, from orbit. Using neutron weapons on the
ground to capture and secure the remaining two, Amaris' forces dug in when Kerensky's troops returned to
liberate the planet. In the ensuing battle, Kerensky's troops used their own tactics against them, raining fire down
from several orbiting WarShips to destroy the core of Amaris' defenders, then overwhelming the surviving troops
with sheer numbers on the ground. In the month-long fighting, the Usurper's troops, employing a scorched-earth
policy, destroyed all of Lambrecht's high-boron alloy mills and several nearby towns.
Even today contaminated zones still trace the sites of these major battles that heralded the fall of the Star League,
and the air is tainted by toxins left over from the biochemical weapons the Amaris forces employed near the end.
The Draconis Combine claimed Lambrecht after the League's fall and immediately tried to scavenge from the
remains of the ruined fortifications and university facilities left behind by Kerensky's troops. In three cases, they
uncovered substantial, largely undamaged catacombs beneath the collapsed ruins of the legendary Castles Brian,
all three of which, including one just fifteen kilometers south of Middle Park, are major tourist attractions today.
Aside from the large island continent of Galapagos in the northern hemisphere of this world, where Middle Park
stands, Lambrecht's four other continents are Brattanios, and Falkos, in the northern hemisphere, east of
Galapagos, and Phillipharos, and Shasia in the south. Shasia, dominated by tundra, is by far the least populous of
these landmasses, but recent discovery of an untapped boron vein has awakened some interest in mining the
metal for the possible rebirth of the high-boron industry.
[3132] Lambrecht was originally part of the Draconis Combine until the creation of The Republic. Lambrecht
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] Lambrecht was released from the control of The Republic.
After being released from The Republic, Lambrecht fell under the influence of the Vega territory.
