{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
−
Realizing that [[Anton Marik's Revolt]] was only having success where [[Wolf's Dragoons]] led the attack, Janos Marik reinforced Sophie's World with three [[BattleMech]] regiments and numerous conventional regiments.  When [[Delta Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Delta Regiment]] and [[Epsilon Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Epsilon Regiment]] attacked Sophie's World, they found themselves outnumbered.  However, they fought well and even gained the upper hand when [[Alpha Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Alpha Regiment]] arrived to assist. The Loyalist Marik forces were forced to surrender Sophie's World, but everyone knew that Anton's rebellion was finished.<ref name=WDsp19/>
+
The database of the ([[apocryphal]]) 1989 video game [[MechWarrior (1989 Video Game)|MechWarrior]], set around the year [[3025]], gives a population of 4.512 billion for Sophie's World and describes the environment as "desert" (out of only three broad impressions of planetary environments given in the game, these being "desert", "ice", or "tropical"). The description one-liner reads "A center for the arts and learning."{{ApocryphalContentEnd}}

Left independent after the League fragmented during the [[Word of Blake|Blakist]] [[Word of Blake Jihad|Jihad]], Sophie's World was courted and then absorbed bloodlessly into the Oriente Protectorate by March [[3137]].<ref name=PGchap22/>
