History[edit]
In 2764, the unit was stationed on Keystone,[2] assigned as part of XXV Corps, Eighth Army to District 1 of the Free Worlds League Military Region.[3] Based in Fort Meade, the Fourteenth was forced to adapt to Keystone's polluted, low atmospheric pressure which shaped the division into being able to operate under extreme environmental conditions.[1]
The Fourteenth was transferred to District 3 of the FWLMR in 2765 in response to the Periphery Uprising. The unit was destroyed during the Hegemony Campaign.[3]
