Planetary History

Early History

Mirach was originally settled to take advantage of the large amounts of minerals and metal ores that were simply lying on the surface of the world. Easy access to these minerals rapidly boosted the planet's economy.[53] During the early twenty-third century the Terran Alliance was waning, leading the Tikonov Union to occupy Mirach as part of a campaign that also netted the Union the nearby worlds of Algol, Rio, Ruchbah and Tybalt.[3] Although Mirach was notionally an independent world on the border of the Tikonov Grand Union and the Marlette Association in the late twenty-third and early twenty-fourth centuries, Mirach was claimed by both states at the end of the twenty-third century, and at some point between 2302 and 2306 the Marlette Association annexed the world along with several other border worlds.[4]

A campaign was launched by Tikonov force in late 2308 to conquer the various worlds the Marlette Association had captured, but the Tikonov forces hadn't captured Mirach by the time the campaign ended, following the death of the commanding officer, General Diana Chinn.[58] Despite this, by the time Reynard Davion came to power in the Federated Suns, the Tikonov Grand Union had gained control of Mirach. In 2344 Reynard Davion used two Federated Suns task forces to stage demonstrations of strength around Mirach to keep the attention of the Grand Union and it's armed forces on Mirach; Reynard then used this distraction to launch a highly successful attack on Almach, another world that had been contested between the Tikonov Union and the Marlette Association.[6] By the time the Capellan Confederation formed in 2366, the Grand Union had lost control of Mirach to the Federated Suns.[7]

These frequent raids prevented most heavy industry from forming on the world's two continents: Musasalah and Ventrale. The world's capital city is Cingulum.[53]

Mirach served as a supply world for the SLDF's Second Army, particularly IX Corps.[59]

The Jihad

The Word of Blake conquered Mirach during September 3069 and incorporated it into the Word of Blake Protectorate.[47] AFFS forces landed on Mirach as well as the nearby worlds of Caselton and Schedar on the 2nd of December 3076 and attempted to liberate the world. The AFFS forces were unsupported by the allied coalition assembled by Devlin Stone, and the assaults were quickly slowed by the defending forces; it was reported that the assault was planned and launched by rogue elements within the AFFS command, explaining the lack of support from the coalition.[60][61]
