The Rim Worlds Republic was the most populous of the various [[Periphery]] states during the Star League era, with many of the core Republic worlds having been colonized prior to the Age of War. The Republic developed an ample number of centers of higher learning, both academic and military, many of which were large and prestigious. The most respected of all the military academies was the Apollo Military Academy (AMA), located on the Republic's capital world.<ref name="FR2765:Pp8"/>

Already well-established by the end of the Age of War, the AMA was damaged but not destroyed during the [[Reunification War]]. This damage failed to keep the AMA out of action, and by the height of the [[Star League]] in [[2765]] the AMA was consistently producing graduate classes of [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] whose leadership skills and knowledge were only surpassed by graduates of the [[Sandhurst Royal Military College]] and the [[War College of Mars]]. In addition to surpassing the training offered by the vast majority of military academies located in the [[Inner Sphere]], the AMA was also enrolling as many applicants each year as many of the finest academies to be found within any of the [[Great House]]s.<ref name="FR2765:Pp8"/>
