==History & Description== The '''Chirikof Operational Area''' - also referred to as the '''Crucis March Edgeward Alpha Combat Theater''' - was a regional command within the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]]. One of the subdivisions of the [[Crucis March]], the Chirikof Operational Area was a completely military administration, with no civilian governing responsibilities, and was traditionally commanded by a [[Field Marshal]]. As an Operational Area the Chirikof OA had command authority over a number of smaller regional commands commonly known as [[Polymorphous Defense Zone]]s or Combat Regions, although during the era of the [[Federated Commonwealth]] the PDZs were simply known as Commands.<ref name="FM:FSp17">''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 17: "Combat Theater"</ref><ref name="FM:FSp17A">''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 17: "Polymorphous Defense Zone/Combat Region"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp125">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 125: "Combat Theater/Operation Area"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp125A">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 125: "Polymorphous Defense Zone/Combat Region"</ref> At the end of the [[Age of War]] in [[2571]] the Chirikof OA encompassed three PDZs,<ref name="HB:HDp48">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 48: "Federated Suns after Age of War - [2571]"</ref> including the entire of the region occupied thirty years previously by the [[United Hindu Collective]].<ref name="ED:AOWp8">''Era Digest: Age of War'', p. 8: "United Hindu Collective [2540]"</ref> The size and scope of the Chirikof OA remained largely stable during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] although the number of inhabited systems declined, in common with other regions of the Federated Suns.<ref name="HB:HDp54">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 54: "Federated Suns after First Succession War - [2822]"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp60">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 60: "Federated Suns after Second Succession War - [2864]"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp70">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 70: "Federated Suns after Third Succession War - [3025]"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp72">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 72: "Federated Suns after Fourth Succession War - [3030] Map"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp76">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 76: "Federated Suns after War of 3039 - [3040]"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp78">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 78: "Federated Suns after Operation Guerrero - [3058]"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp82">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 82: "Federated Suns after FedCom Civil War - [3067]"</ref><ref name="FM:Up139">''Field Manual: Updates'', pp. 139–140: "Edgeward Alpha Combat Theater (Chirikof Operational Area)"</ref> At some point between the end of the [[Third Succession War]] and [[3054]] the Chirikof OA was restructured slightly, with the Kearny and Remagen Combat Regions being redesignated the Malagrotta and Nunivak Combat Regions, respectively,<ref name="HD(TFS)p138"/><ref name="ORp16"/> although by the end of the [[FedCom Civil War]] the Nunivak Combat Region had been replaced once more with the Remagen Combat Region.<ref name="FM:Up139"/> The most significant change in the borders of the Chirikof OA came in the aftermath of the [[Jihad]]; during the Jihad, a significant number of worlds within the Malagrotta PDZ had broken away from the Federated Suns, forming a new nation - the [[Malagrotta Cooperative]].<ref name="JS:TBDp64">''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 64: "Inner Sphere - [3075] Map"</ref><ref name="JHS3076p26">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 26: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp51">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 51: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> One of the responses to this was [[Princess-Regent]] [[Yvonne Steiner-Davion]] establishing a new March, the [[Periphery March (Federated Suns)|Periphery March]]; creating the [[June Operational Area]] as a part of the new Periphery March, the former Islamabad and Malagrotta PDZs were incorporated into the new March, along with a trio of systems from the Remagen PDZ, leaving the Chirikof OA responsible for just one PDZ.<ref name="FM:3085p52">''Field Manual: 3085'', pp. 52–53: "Camelot Summit"</ref><ref name="FM:3085pVii">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. vii: "Inner Sphere - [3085]"</ref><ref name="FM:3085p71">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 71: "Armed Forces of the Federated Suns"</ref> This would remain the case throughout the [[Dark Age]].<ref name="FM:3145p92">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 92: "Armed Forces of the Federated Suns"</ref><ref name=ER:3145p39>''Era Report: 3145'', p. 39: "Inner Sphere - [3145] Map"</ref><ref name="FM:3145pVI">''Field Manual: 3145'', p.
