===Bubondinox III===
'''L-9'''

"The earliest records in the Republic regarding Bubondinox III indicate there were two expeditions sent during the Republic's earliest days.  Then a mining expedition sent much,much later.  The first two were within 100 years or so of each other, and accounts differ as to which was sent first.  One was comprised of a fanatic religious cult, the other was a penal colony.  Neither group lasted that long. You can find traces of their camps or bones, even after all these years. Of course, there are tales of some of them still out there living in the swamps." '''Duke Kelverton Jorwahl'''

Bubondinox I and III both rotate around the star X43381, nobody has actually bothered to name the star yet. Bubondinox II is now in pieces.  It's remains are the asteroids that litter the system. It is believed this catastrophic event was the impetus for the creation of the mining charter, which lead to the discovery of the gonch.  The gonch is an arthropod, more like a crustacean than an insect.  It flourishes in the many swamps that cover BDX3.  It's waste product is a very stable nitrate and can be stored and transported very efficiently.

The government is currently dominated by House Lexiume.  Frequent internecine warring between different mining groups over territory lead to what many considered to be harsh but sadly necessary measures by Grand Archduke Nithian Jorwahl the 8th.  More modernization and political reform are being considered by many younger members of the house.
