[edit] History
After the Great Refusal ended the Clan Invasion, many inhabitants of the Free Rasalhague Republic believed the need for ComStar's troops had also ceased, despite Clan Wolf's victory in that Trial. With the increasing good relations with Clan Ghost Bear and long held fears of a ComStar take-over of the Republic has resulted in the transferring the hatred normally reversed for Mercenary units towards the Com Guards stationed in their realm. ComStar viewed a withdrawal as exposing the Republic to a Wolf Clan assault once the Truce of Tukayyid expired and has increasingly strived to keep the regard of the people it had sworn to protect.
