Planetary History[edit]

Star League Era[edit]

Halifax was originally a part of the Timbuktu Province of the Rim Worlds Republic and was conquered by the Lyran Commonwealth during the 2773–2775 Republic–Commonwealth war.[12]

Clan Invasion Era[edit]

Starting in 3053, Halifax was used as a base of operations for ComStar's Explorer Corps Anti-Spinward Operations Area, with the blessings of Melissa Steiner and Victor Ian Steiner-Davion. However, with the secession of the Lyran Alliance, and increasingly cordial relations between Katherine Steiner-Davion and Thomas Marik, the Explorer Corps have all but abandoned their exploration efforts originating from Lyran space.[38]

Dark Age[edit]

In 3084 or 3085, Halifax was hit by a pirate force, possibly originating in the Rim Commonality, and which mustered at least a combined-arms battalion in strength. On hand were half of the Twenty-fifth Arcturan Guards LCT, who promptly smashed the pirate assault, breaking the pirate force and leaving the survivors to run with more than a third of their numbers dead on the battlefield.[39]
