Although Mesartim was claimed by both states at the end of the twenty-third century, the Marlette Association was the first to forcibly annex Mesartim, taking the planet along with several others between [[2302]] and [[2306]].<ref name="HL(TCC)p21"/> With the election of General [[Diana Chinn]] to the [[Tikonov Tetrarchy]] in [[2307]], the Tikonov Grand Union began an ambitious gamble against the Marlette Association, and a number of Marlette Association worlds were invaded and annexed in short order. Tikonov Grand Union forces commanded by Diana Chinn conquered Mesartim in December [[2308]];<ref name="HL(TCC)p22">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 22</ref> the world remained in Tikonov Grand Union control until [[2344]], when the [[Federated Suns]] occupied several Tikonov worlds including Mesartim<ref name="HL(TCC)p23"/><ref name="HB:HDp21">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 21: "Taking the Initiative"</ref> (which was referred to as [[Conway]] by the Federated Suns).<ref name="HL(TCC)p23">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 23</ref> In [[2345]], the Tikonov Grand Union was forced to sign the [[Almach Accords]], which ceded Mesartim and a number of other worlds to the Federated Suns.<ref name="HB:HDp21"/> Reynard recognized Mesartim as an independent member world within the Federated Suns - giving Mesartim a higher standing than it had enjoyed as a member of the [[Chesterton Trade Worlds]] under the Grand Union - and founded a number of settlements there.<ref name="HD(TFS)p27">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 27: "The War Leader"</ref> The Tikonov Grand Union later renounced the Almach Accords in [[2363]] and attacked a number of Federated Suns worlds, although the Federated Suns was still in control of the Mesartim system when the Tikonov Grand Union joined the [[Capellan Confederation]] in July [[2367]].<ref name="HB:HLp13"/><ref name="HB:HDp22">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 21: "Pushing Towards Confederation"</ref><ref name="HL(TCC)p25">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 25: "The Aris Crisis"</ref> By the end of the Age of War, the Capellan Confederation had recaptured Mesartim along with several other systems, and Mesartim was one of the six systems that formed the [[Chesterton Commonality]] in fact, although nine worlds were claimed to be a part of the Chesterton Commonality in name by the Confederation.<ref name="HB:HLp25">''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 25: "Capellan Confederation after Age of War [2571]"</ref><ref name="HL(TCC)p152">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 152: "Chesterton Commonality"</ref> ====Succession Wars Era==== The [[Capellan Confederation]] retained control of Mesartim during the [[First Succession War]] despite the protracted conflicts between the Confederation and the [[Federated Suns]] around the Chesterton worlds, but lost control of the system during the [[Second Succession War]], either to [[Federated Suns]] conquest or the concessions of [[Dainmar Liao]].<ref name="HB:HLp31"/><ref name="HB:HLp39"/> [[Sung's Cuirassiers]] recaptured Mesartim for the Capellan Confederation in [[2978]], attempting to relieve some of the pressure from the Federated Suns on [[Tikonov]],<ref name="HL(TCC)p85">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 85: "Sung's Cuirassiers"</ref> but the Federated Suns recaptured Mesartim at some point prior to [[3023]].

These wines were shipped to the most powerful citizens and enjoyed by those who loved the luxurious life. The fact that it's under the control of the Federated Suns has long been a sore point for the inhabitants of [[Tikonov]]. In fact in early [[3025]] the Prefect of Tikonov, Waldemar Teng, vowed that he would retake the planet from the Federated Suns specifically to return the vineyards to the Confederation.<ref name="HL(TCC)p155"/> Unfortunately for Prefect Teng the [[Fourth Succession War]] put an end to that plan. ===Military Deployment=== ====2765==== * [[Chesterton Guardians]]<ref>''Field Report 2765:
