The Marik-Stewart Commonwealth is one of the successor states to the late Free Worlds League. The nation constitutes the core of what was once the League, including the capital of Atreus. Ironically, Stewart became a part of the Republic of the Sphere. Though the League finally collapsed in 3078, Corrine Marik did not take upon herself the mantle of the Captain-General until 3082. The Marik-Stewart Commonwealth is essentially a fusion of the Marik Commonwealth and the Stewart Commonality, though it also includes some portions of the Silver Hawks Coalition.
Corrine's grandson, Anson Marik, attempted to take Stewart from the Republic in 3134, but his invasion failed. He moved the capital from Marik to Atreus in 3136 under threat of invasion from the Lyran Commonwealth. This move proved fortuitous when the Oriente Protectorate launched an invasion of its own soon after that led to the seizure of Marik. Anson also resurrected the Silver Hawk Irregulars, a military force that had been shattered during the Jihad to combat the Lyran invasion when it finally materialized. Coupled with a high-ranking spy, the Commonwealth has so far been able to survive against its larger neighbor.
In August 3137, the Lyran Commonwealth with Clan Wolf, invaded the Commonwealth. The Silver Hawk Irregulars began a guerilla warfare campaign against the Lyran incursion. The Silver Hawk Irregulars were effectively wiped-out by Lyran and Clan Wolf forces on Helm. Only 50 to 100 members survived what became known as the Helm Massacre.
On June 5th, 3138 the Lyran & Clan Wolf expedition invaded Stewart. Anson Marik ordered the remaining members of the Silver Hawk Irregulars off-planet to prevent their destruction. Anson was later killed in a running gun battle with Lyran forces in his stronghold.
With no heir to be found and no contingency plans, the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth is decapitated and assumed destroyed by the invasion.
