The Border War was a short, but intense conflict, between the Federated Suns and the Capellan Confederation on their border with each other in 2760.[citation needed]
Overview
Conflict that began when a nuclear explosion killed 200 on the world of Demeter, belonging to House Davion. The blame was laid upon the Capellan Confederation, and reparations were demanded. The current Chancellor of the Capellan Confederation, Barbara Liao, referred the matter to the High Council of the Star League however no agreement on the issue was reached and so John Davion began preparations for an offensive.[citation needed]
Feeling justified by the nuclear attack and the lack of consensus of the High Council, John Davion proceeded to open the conflict on three fronts. Targeting the Capellan Confederation worlds of Tsamma, Wei and Redfield. This offensive placed the garrisoning Star League Defense Forces units in a precarious position, unsure of which side to help, if any at all. To resolve this the SLDF units attempted to contact General Kerensky for orders, but were instead ordered by the High Council to evacuate the contested worlds. Several officers in the garrison units were demoted by the High Council for challenging their authority to issue such orders[1].
General Kerensky made haste for Terra as soon as word reached him about the High Council issuing orders without consulting him, making an attempt to convince the leaders of the Lyran Commonwealth, Free Worlds League and Draconis Combine that any fighting between Houses would easily spread out of control. The lords hesitated at the observation by the General, but ultimately were content to let the war continue as neither side seemed to be gaining ground.[citation needed]
The war sputtered out in early 2762 due to the actions of the First Lord, as he attempted to pass Executive Order 156. Uniting all the House Lords, even the belligerent parties, against himself.[citation needed]
