However, they could not find Deikun’s children: his daughter, Artesia, or his son, Casval. When their second eldest son, Sasro, was killed in a car bombing, the Zabi family began a purge of Deikun’s followers, including his family. Deikun’s followers naturally suspected foul play, which was confirmed in their eyes when he declared the Republic was to turn into a Principality, with himself and his five children at its head as lords of Deikun’s legacy. Zabi swore that on his deathbed, Deikun named him as his successor in ruling the Republic of Zeon. This would be shattered with his sudden, unexpected demise. The Earth Federation immediately responded by blockading the colony cluster and denying it access to resources from outside.įor a time, Deikun ruled the Republic alongside his friend and chief of staff, Degwin Zabi, and began a family. As charismatic as he was intellectual, the people of Side Three eventually named him as their new leader and declared their independence as the Republic of Zeon. From Philosopher to RulerĪ man named Zeon Zum Deikun eventually found a home at Side Three, bringing with him Contolism: a philosophy that held the Earth, cradle of humanity, as sacred and not meant to be violated by humankind, and that each space colony cluster should be treated as a sovereign nation, independent from Federation control. This blatant discrimination would have consequences, as this atmosphere was ripe for a new, radical philosophy to spread among the colonies. However, those fortunate enough to remain on Earth looked down their noses at the colonists, disdainfully calling them “Spacenoids” and passing laws that favoured the Earth-born elite. New Age, Old Waysįor fifty years the Earth Federation insisted all colonies were under its rule, as more and more colonies were constructed and the population swelled to a gigantic eleven billion people - over two thirds of whom were adapting to a life out in space. With the construction of a fully self-sufficient space colony at Lagrange Point 1 or “Side One”, the beginning of a new age dawned, and Anno Domini gave way to the Universal Century calendar. With over nine billion people inhabiting the world, overpopulation and dwindling resources left life on Earth more and more untenable, and the newly formed Earth Federation government struggled with quelling the growing unrest.Ī radical solution was proposed: humanity must spread out from the planet of its birth and begin colonising the rest of the Solar System, beginning with the Lagrangian points out in space - stable points where gravitational forces could not interfere with, say, a long-term colony habitat. Some time ago, mankind suffered a crisis.
