==History==
He was appointed to become the first Regent ever for that nation when [[Daniel Calderon]] died of a brain tumor in [[2390]] leaving his three-year-old daughter [[Amanda Calderon]] as heir.  Among his most notable acts was the extension of fortified early-warning outposts around the frontiers of the Concordat to prevent further [[House Davion|Davion]] raids.<ref name=TPp20>''The Periphery, First Edition'', p. 20</ref>  But these defensive measures ran afoul of the newborn [[Capellan Confederation]] which was expanding in search of new resource worlds.  Eventually [[Chancellor]] [[Kurnath Liao]] opted to "push" the Taurians out of "his" worlds with heavy Naval raids spanning almost two decades ([[2397]]-[[2417]]) Kurnath was eventually replaced with [[Arden Baxter]] as [[Chancellor]].

'''Sigur Fonn''' was an Admiral in the [[Taurian Concordat]] Navy at the beginning of the [[Age of War]].  He was appointed to become the first Regent ever for that nation when [[Daniel Calderon]] died of a brain tumor in [[2390]] leaving only his 3 year old daughter [[Amanda Calderon]] as heir-apperant.  Among his most notable acts was the extension of fortified early-warning outposts around the frontiers of the Concordat to prevent further [[House Davion|Davion]] raids. <ref>''The Periphrey (sourcebook)'',p.20</ref>  But these defensive measures ran afoul of the newly born [[Capellan Confederation]] which was expanding in seach of new resource worlds.  Eventually [[Chancellor]] [[Kurnath Liao]] opted to 'push' the Taurians out of 'his' worlds with heavy Naval raids spanning almost two decades ([[2397]]-[[2417]]) Kurnerth was eventually replaced with [[Arden Baxter]] as [[Chancellor]] who decided to formally declare a war, the [[Rim War]] ([[2418]]-[[2422]]). <ref> ''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 33</ref>  It was Sigur who advised and mediated for Protector [[Amanda Calderon]] to a truce in [[2422]].  Upon his advice Amanda chose the path of neutrality rather than join Baxter's blantantly anti-[[Marik]] 'Thousand World Alliance'. <ref>''The Periphrey (sourcebook)'',p.20</ref>
 
 
Using as excuse that in [[2412]], Sigur did not sign the [[Ares Conventions]],<ref name=ERAWp13/> Arden Baxter decided to declare war, the [[Rim War]] ([[2418]]-[[2422]]).<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 33</ref>  It was Sigur who advised and mediated for Protector [[Amanda Calderon]] to a truce in [[2422]].  Upon his advice Amanda chose the path of neutrality rather than join Baxter's blatantly anti-[[Marik]] "[[Thousand-World Coalition]]".<ref name=TPp20 />

There is no specific year listed when Amanda was '''officially''' proclaimed Protector but it would have most likely been on or shortly after her majority of 18 years old ([[2415]]).
