Information

Things you need to know:

When you see a word spelled "Zion" or "Jion". There are actually three different ways to spell Zeon. It was originally spelled "Zion" before being dubbed, and it is pronounced "Jion" in Japanese.

The Zeon rallying war cry? Hail Zeon? Nope... It's actually said "Sieg Zeon". Sieg is a German word for "Victory", therefore, "Sieg Zeon" would mean something like "Victory for Zeon". Apparently Toonami has deemed "Sieg" too Nazi-ish and replaced it with "Hail" in Mobile Suit Gundam. An interesting thing, though, is that during Ghinius Sakhalin's speech in 08th MS Team, he says "Zieck Zeon!", one of the older ways of saying "Sieg Zeon".

People everywhere are contesting how you pronounce "Gouf", the mighty blue MS-07B. In Mobile Suit Gundam, it is pronounced "Guf". In 08th MS Team, it is pronounced "Goof". Personally, It is pronounced "Gaff" in Japanese.

Principality of Zeon? Duchy of Zeon? Principality? Duchy? It seems that either works in most situations. The Principality of Zeon is apparently the whole organization. The Duchy of Zeon is apparently the colony cluster of Side Three, as the term "Duchy" means "land ruled by a duke".



I have a full size version of this flag in my room. Seig Zeon! ^_^'

0076
Zeon begins developing various mobile suits for the war against Earth, the only suit to date is the Zaku

0078
Zeon begins mass-producing the MS-06 Zaku II, an enhanced version of the MS-05 Zaku. Despite the fact that the colony isn't even finished, people begin to immigrate to Side 7

0079
Zeon declares a war for Independence against the Federation. Zeon began with simultaneous attacks on Sides 1, 2, and 4. The days came to be known as the "One-Week War" and were brought to a sobering end when a colony re-entered the atmosphere, and crashed into Sydney Australia. Both sides used Nuclear, and Biochemical weapons indiscriminately the resulting devastation took out a quarter of the Human race. The death toll for the week was three billion people. 16% of Australia dissappears as a result of the Operation Brittish colony drop, leaving the largest man-made scar anywhere on Earth.

Hundreds of Federation warships, and Zeon Mobile Suits fought each other at Side 5, the side known as Ruum. What became known as the "Battle of Ruum" was the single largest space battle in history. Char Aznable single-handedly sank 5 battleships with his customized Red Zaku, it was in this battle that a Federation soldier gave him the nickname, the "Red Comet." Both sides sign the Antarctica Treaty, the treaty prohibited the use of Nuclear or Biochemical Weapons, and the use of Colony Drops as weapons of mass destruction that would further contribute to the already horrendous body count.

The Zeon Military forms the Earth Attack Force, Garma Zavi is named as its commander. While the Federation still licked their wounds from Ruum, and cleaned up the mess from Operation British, the Zeon were busy taking over Asia, Europe, and North America. The Federation maintains a strong position in South America, but both sides are in no shape for fighting, they both take advantage of the lull in the fighting to rebuild their respective war machines. Zeon military reserves drop to their bases on Earth, using captured resources and facilities they begin to replenish the Zeon war machine.

Giren Zavi gives an impassioned speech at his brother's funeral, he calls on all Zeon to fight the tyranny of the Earth government. The Zeon rallying cry "Sieg Zeon" is used for the first time.

The One Year War ends. The Earth Federation government and Republic of Zeon conclude a peace accord on the moon.
