The icy world of Mayenne was colonized in 452 [[AGS]]. The conditions on the planet were long considered too harsh for any mining operations, but research showed the presence of a number of rare ores in the planet's crust. Extensive mining started shortly before the [[First Gallic War]] broke out. The war put a halt to those operations, since Mayenne was constantly threatened by Normandy factions at war with the Royal government. With all [[Gallic Royal Navy|Royal Navy]] forces pulled back to defend Le Mans, Mayenne was often left without any protection and mining settlements were bombarded from space a number of times in 505-507 [[AGS]]. The separatists even attempted two ill-fated planetary landings, attempting to capture the mining operations using ground troops. Mayenne's army detachments, despite being small in numbers, were much better prepared for fighting in the extremely cold environments than the separatists' forces. Normandy troops suffered heavy casualties, mostly caused by exposure to elements and lack of supplies, and were defeated.

The icy world of Mayenne was colonized in 452 AGS. The conditions on the planet were long considered to be too harsh for any mining operation, yet the presence of rare minerals that were difficult to acquire elsewhere in Gallia eventually led the Gallic Metal Service (GMS) to establish a small mining post. The facility grew steadily until the First Gallic War. When the planet ended up on the frontline, the GMS ceased operation and pulled most of the miners out. The Normandy seperatists launched several attacks against the facilities from orbit, destroying many structures in large scale, indiscriminate bombing. This was followed up by a two ground invasions, both of which failed miserably. The seperatists and their equipment were completely unprepared for the extreme conditions on the planet, and many soldiers either froze to death were submerged by snow during the planet's many blizzards.

After the war, the mining facilities were rebuilt and the planet's industry started to grow once again. The current population is nearing 130.000, but due to Mayenne's proximity to the Normandy border, 50.000 of these are part of the Gallic Marine detachment which is permanently stationed on the Planet.
