The so called ''Year of Peace'' was an unofficial truce between [[The Clans]] and [[Inner Sphere]] powers in the [[Clan Invasion]].

==History==
The Year from peace extended since the October of 3050 to November 3051.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', pp. 12–13</ref> During the Clan Invasion, known as [[Operation REVIVAL]] to the Clans themselves, the [[Clans]] invaded the Inner Sphere states of the [[Federated Commonwealth]], [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] and [[Draconis Combine]], making rapid advances into their territory from the Coreward Periphery. Even the Clan defeats of the [[Battle of Twycross]] and [[Battle of Wolcott]] barely slowed the advance. However, during the [[Battle of Radstadt]], a ''[[Shilone]]'' fighter piloted by a mortally wounded pilot, [[Tyra Miraborg]], rammed the [[Wolf Clan]] [[WarShip]] ''[[Dire Wolf]]'', breaching the bridge. The Clans military leader, [[ilKhan]] [[Leo Showers]] was sucked into space and killed.<ref>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 29</ref>

Their leader's death stunned the Clans, specially Showers' own [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]]. As the invasion required an [[ilKhan of the Clans|ilKhan]], which in turn required the participation of all Clans leaders, the invading Clans [[Grand Kurultai]] voted to return to their capital, [[Strana Mechty]], taking all their Bloodnamed warriors with them to participate in the election. This stopped the invasion for more than a year, as the trip to the [[Clan Homeworlds]] took roughly six months.<ref name=ICp59>''Invading Clans'', p. 59</ref> Both sides spent the time in the unofficial truce preparing. The Inner Sphere leaders believed the Clan advance had been stopped by their two victories, but the [[Wolf's Dragoons]], summoned the leaders of the Successor States to their home base of [[Outreach]] to inform them of the threat the Clans posed, of their nature as descendants of [[SLDF]]'s army, and of the Dragoons' original identity as a Clan recon unit. [[Jaime Wolf]] hoped the gathering at Outreach would encourage the leaders of the Successor States to join in a coalition against their common enemy. They succeeded in that: only the [[Capellan Confederation]] refused to join the coalition. All the other leaders agreed to put a relative halt to their old conflicts and to share information, troops and resources.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 13</ref> Tentative truces were made between the powers of the Inner Sphere to combat the Clan menace. [[Hanse Davion]] pledged to [[Theodore Kurita]] that he would not send FedCom forces into Combine space for the duration of the invasion, allowing the Combine to draw more troops to the Clan front. [[Thomas Marik]] promised to supply a great number of refit kits to the [[AFFC]] in exchange for [[Joshua Marik]] being taken to the [[New Avalon Institute of Science]] for leukemia treatment. A secondary goal involved training the heirs of the Successor States in anti-Clan tactics, culminating in an ersatz [[Trial of Position]] in July where the two highest-scoring pilots were gifted a ''[[Dire Wolf (Daishi)|Daishi]]'' [[OmniMech]]. [[Hohiro Kurita (31st c.)|Hohiro Kurita]] placed second, with [[Victor Steiner-Davion]] finishing in third among the assembled heirs. [[Kai Allard-Liao]] took first place, but his refusal to accept Jaime's gift put Victor in possession of a ''Daishi''.<ref>''Blood Legacy'', pp. 17–27,  49-50, 79–80, 98–106, 198, 221–224, 236–239, 313</ref>
