The primary example of the [[Capellan Confederation]]'s support for and benefits of the Trinity Alliance to the [[Magistracy of Canopus]] and [[Taurian Concordat]], the Confederation rebuilt and updated a ruined [[BattleMech]] factory on [[Detroit]], its position intended to bolster the [[New Colony Region]].

When the New Colony Region declared its independence and was recognized as the [[Fronc Reaches]], the Magistracy of Canopus recognized the small state in exchange for Detroit becoming a Magistracy protectorate.<ref>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 82</ref> This put DCM completely under Magistracy control and promptly helped the Magistracy's economy.<ref name=hmps92>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 92</ref>

When the Blakists attacked the world the Capellan Confederation sent reinforcements. These troops used the [[Danai]] artillery pieces produced there to drive the Blakists off-world. To add to the rocky relationship of the Trinity Alliance partners, there is disagreement about how to divide the profits: The Capellans want to divide them based on a per-capita basis, the Magistracy thinks that it should have all the profits because Detroit is now part of their realm, and the Taurians want to split the profits evenly between the partner nations.<ref>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 176</ref>
