The first Kusari colony established after the settlement of [[Planet New Tokyo|New Tokyo]], Honshu is mostly covered in water, with few sizable land masses. The first settlers struggled for several centuries before a catastrophic decline in ocean harvesting forced most of the inhabitants to turn their attentions to the nearby [[Crow Nebula]] and its bountiful gas resources. Over time the former Honshu settlers moved entirely into space and formed the [[Gas Mining Guild|Gas Miners Guild (GMG)]], all but bandoning their ancestral home. Honshu lay fallow until [[Kishiro Technologies| Kishiro]] selected the planet in 510 [[A.S.]] as the location for its main [[Optronics]] manufacturing facility.

Settled in 56 A.S., planet Honshu was the first colony in Kusari, after the initial colonisation of planet New Tokyo. It bears a number of similarities to the capital planet, mainly in that it is an ocean world with few sizeable land masses. With so little land available for farming, the settlers turned to fishing as their primary industry. Unfortunately, very few Terran fish species took to the oceans of Honshu, although tuna and salmon were among those that were able to survive. The colonists struggled to feed themselves for several centuries, until a catastrophic decline in the fish stocks in 250 A.S. caused most of the inhabitants to abandon the planet and seek their fortunes elsewhere. The vast majority of the population cast their eyes on the nearby Crow Nebula and its bountiful gas resources, which eventually lead them to form the Gas Miners Guild.

With the colonists abandoning their ancestral home in favour of the Crow Nebula, Honshu lay fallow for over 250 years. Eventually, in 510 A.S., Kishiro Technologies decided that Honshu would be the perfect location to construct its main optronics production facility, especially after planetary surveys revealed the oceans to contain significant quantities of various chemicals and raw materials that were useful in the manufacture of optronics themselves. Since the optronics factories can be built at sea, this has left a significant amount of the available land masses for the construction of towns and cities, and the population of Honshu has climbed steadily ever since, bypassing the 170 million mark in 817 A.S.
