History[edit]

The Thirty-first Robinson Chevaliers was a regiment within the Robinson Chevaliers brigade of the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns. The formation of the Thirty-first was ordered by First Prince John Davion in 2739; the Thirty-first were honored to be the regiment to take up the mantle of the First Robinson Chevaliers, which had been the oldest regiment within the brigade until its destruction during the War of Davion Succession ten years before.[2]

Taking up the colors of a destroyed regiment was common practice within the Robinson Chevaliers; each regiment took up the name of a chivalric order from the preindustrial history of Terra, and the brigade preferred to found new regiments rather than re-form destroyed commands. As such the Thirty-first took on the unit name of the First and the associated order, with personnel keen to live up to the mantle of the Round Table.[2]

The Thirty-first was one of the fifteen regiments of Robinson Chevaliers to be destroyed during the First Succession War.[1]
