Political Affilation

Planetary History

By the end of the Reunification War, Zosma was a member of the Tyrfing Province of the Terran Hegemony.[5]

Operation Guerrero

Zosma was invaded in the second wave of Operation Guerrero by the 9th Marik Militia. The defending Planetary Militia were no match for the invading Marik forces.[29]

Jihad

In late June 3070, the planetary government and military forces on Zosma switched their allegiance to the Word of Blake, bringing the world into the Word of Blake Protectorate; Zosma was one of six worlds to declare for the Blakists in the space of a week, pushing the Protectorate into Free Worlds League space.[20]

In 3076 the Word of Blake deployed the 1st Zosma Protectorate Militia Division to Dyev as part of a counterassault against invading forces from Clan Ghost Bear. The apparent destruction of the various Divisions assembled on Dyev by the Word of Blake[30] may explain why, when the 17th Arcturan Guards attempted to raid Zosma in the second half of 3077, they found the planet to be almost undefended. As a result, the brief raid turned into an all-out conquest in which the Guards quickly crushed the defending forces, an unanticipated success for the Lyran front of Operation SCOUR.[31]
