What planet was destroyed by the First Order?

Hosnian Prime
Hosnian Prime and all other planetary objects orbiting the system’s sun were destroyed by a phantom energy beam upon the firing of the First Order’s Starkiller Base superweapon in 34 ABY. Due to the nature of phantom energy, the destruction of the system was visible across the galaxy through a rip in sub-hyperspace.
