==History==
In [[2764]] the Twenty-fifth Corps was part of the [[8th Army (Star League)|8th Army]], assigned to the First District of the [[Free Worlds League Military Region]]. The Twenty-fifth was responsible for garrisoning worlds in the [[Principality of Regulus]], [[Federation of Oriente]], and the [[Marik Commonwealth]]. Though their area of responsibility was smaller than the other Corps of Eighth Army, the widely divergent cultures of these three factions made the deployment a turbulent one. The fact that the [[FWLM]] also garrisoned these worlds with large formations didn't help relations as the local FWLM commanders wanted the Twenty-fifth's units out of their areas. As part of this effort to evict the Twenty-fifth, Parliament forbade any Free Worlds League defense contractors from selling supplies to the SLDF units. This seriously hampered the Twenty-fifth's ability to conduct major campaigns.<ref name=fmsldf112>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 112</ref>

The Star League High Command installed [[Major General]] Aleta Kanavos as the Corps commander. She was a native of the Marik Commonwealth and appointing her was a political decision. She was a skilled politician and was able to smooth relations in several cases.<ref name=fmsldf112/>

The Twenty-fifth would take part in [[Aleksandr Kerensky]]'s campaign to reconquer the [[Terran Hegemony]] from Amaris, but suffered heavy losses in the effort.  Only two units would survive to join [[Operation Exodus]], with two more joining the [[Capellan Confederation]].
