El Giza was a regional communications center and the home of a robust entertainment industry with a highly academic culture; scholars traveled from throughout the rimward half of the [[Inner Sphere]] to attend its schools.<ref name="TRTCp187"/> During the First Succession War El Giza once more became a flashpoint between the Free Worlds League and Capellan Confederation.<ref name="H:LoTV2p118">''Historical: Liberation of Terra, Volume 2'', p. 118: "Jointly Administered Worlds"</ref> === Dark Age === After a dozen violent takeovers during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] El Giza was left devastated. In contrast with the conflict of the Succession Wars, El Giza was left unscathed after the [[Jihad]].<ref name="TRTCp187">''To Ride the Chimera'', p. 187: "Brief description of history".</ref> In [[3082]] El Giza was defended by the [[Fourth Andurien Cavalry]] as a part of the defense pact between the Mosiro Archipelago and the Duchy of Andurien; late in that year, a Capellan Confederation [[BattleMech]] [[company]] arrived on world as part of an effort by the Confederation to wedge a new border between the Confederation, the Duchy of Andurien and the nearby Oriente Protectorate. The Andurien Cavalry tracked the Capellan forces and dispatched a lance of new [[Aeron|Aeron Strike VTOLs]] to intercept the Capellan troops as they attempted to meet up with their [[DropShip]]. The Andurien forces ambushed the [[CCAF]] company, dropping three [['Mech]]s quickly and then harassing the remaining 'Mechs until all had been destroyed before they could rendezvous with their waiting transport.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp12">''Technical Readout: 3085 Supplemental'', p. 12: "Deployment".</ref> By the 3130s the Duchy of Andurien considered the world marginally strategically valuable due to its proximity to that era's major trading hub of [[Mosiro]]. By [[3137]] El Giza had become the home of the Fourth Andurien Cavalry until the [[Fifth Andurien War|war with the Oriente Protectorate]], during which the planet was taken by the [[Covenant Worlds 1st Expeditionary Force|Covenant Worlds First Expeditionary Force]], becoming a part of the Protectorate.{{cn}} As part of [[Operation TRIUMVIR]], the [[Andurien Defense Force]] dispatched the [[1st Andurien Rangers|First Andurien Rangers]] to attack El Giza in August [[3146]]. By mid-September those elements of the [[2nd Oriente Hussars|Second Oriente Hussars]] garrisoning the world had withdrawn, conceding El Giza to Andurien.<ref name=SF20/> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information == Planetary Rulers == --> == Military Deployment == === 2765 === * [[First Andurien Hussars]]<ref>''Field Report 2765: CCAF'', p. 8: "Regimental Status"</ref> === 2786 === * First Andurien Hussars<ref name="FSWp135">''First Succession War'', p. 135: "First Succession War Deployment Table - CCAF"</ref> === 2821 === * [[First Defenders of Andurien]]<ref name="FSWp138">''First Succession War'', p. 138: "First Succession War Deployment Table - FWLM"</ref> * [[Second Free Worlds Guards]]<ref name="FSWp138">''First Succession War'', p. 138: "First Succession War Deployment Table - FWLM"</ref> === 3079 === * [[Third Andurien Rangers]]<ref name="FRFWLp12">''Field Report: FWLM'', p. 12: "Duchy of Andurien"</ref> :- At this point in time, the 3rd Andurien Rangers were deployed across El Giza, [[Mosiro]] and [[Hudeiba]].
