Planetary History[edit]

Reunification War[edit]

Morthac was a core world within the Outworlds Alliance when Operation UNION HOLD began in 2581. With the intention of forcibly incorporating the Outworlds Alliance into the Star League following the mass rejection of the Pollux Proclamation in 2575 by the major Periphery states, the invasion of the Outworlds Alliance saw two corps of Star League Defense Force troops and a mixed brigade of DCMS forces begin systematically occupying Alliance worlds. Morthac escaped the attentions of the Outworlds Alliance Task Force until mid-2583.[5]

When the Thirty-eighth Royal Brigade and Thirty-ninth Royal Brigade of the Thirteenth Royal Division, V Corps arrived on Morthac, it wasn't to occupy the world; instead, the SLDF forces had targeted the world as part of a seek-and-destroy campaign to weaken the Outworlds Alliance by destroying the industry and population centers of worlds not yet targeted for annexation. Destroying any militia forces encountered was a secondary objective, compared to that of setting the torch to cities and factories. Morthac was the first target for the two brigades, who spent between one and two weeks doing as much damage as possible before leaving Morthac to strike at Banori. By the end of 2583, hundreds of cities and towns across the Outworlds Alliance would have been destroyed, and such was the level of destruction caused and the number of civilian casualties inflicted that by June 2583 both the commander of the Star League task force, General Amos Forlough, and his troops were being called "The Baby Killers" by the press in both the Outworlds Alliance and the Federated Suns.[5]
