Rise to Power
Degwin was Zeon's chief of staff and claimed that on his deathbed, Zeon, with his dying words, declared Degwin his successor. Given this much, general consensus tends to automatically connect Degwin Zabi with the sudden death of Zeon Deikun, but nothing concrete has ever been uncovered.
Degwin initiated a purge of Deikun loyalists and declared Side 3 colony the Principality of Zeon and himself as Archduke. He initiated a war with the Earth Federation and set his children up in high ranking positions. In the fictional Gundam Universe, space colonies play a pivotal role in ever-changing stories. ...

War with the Federation While initially fiercely promoting war with the Federation, Degwin is also consumed by the intrafamilial feuding between his ambitious children, most notably Gihren and Kycilia.

Also, Degwin never recovers from the death of his youngest and most unspoiled son Garma. He falls into a depression and leaves most of the day to day operations to Gihren, his eldest. As a result, Gihren effectively becomes the self styled "fuhrer" of Zeon, leaving Degwin as little more than a figurehead.

Although Gihren dismisses his father as a tired old man, Degwin does not hide his disgust for Gihren's ruthlessness. Never having any respect for Gihren's lofty ideals, Degwin once humiliated his son by stating that he would never be Zeon's idea of a Newtype but only a caricature of Adolf Hitler. And he anticipated that as with Hitler, Gihren's own followers will eventually want to kill him. Hitler redirects here. ...
Death Although Degwin gives Giren approval for the Solar Ray laser project, Degwin is genuinely tired of war and arranges for a meeting with General Revil to discuss peace negotiations. When the two sides' fleets arrive at the neutral area for discussion, Giren arranges for an "accidental" firing of the Solar Ray laser that incinerates his flagship, The Great Degwin, as well as the flagship of General Revil and much of their accompanying fleets. In the original Mobile Suit Gundam, General Revil (Also referred to as Admiral Revil) was one of the leading Federations Space Force commanders. ...
Notes Sodo is not a middle name but a Japanese honorific meaning "leader". It may also be romanized as "soto". |
