By the end of the [[Reunification War]], Bordon was a world within the [[Tyrfing Province]] of the [[Terran Hegemony]], on the border between the Hegemony and the [[Free Worlds League]].<ref name="H:RWp159"/>

====Fourth Succession War====
 
Using the [[Fourth Succession War]], [[Cranston Snord's Irregulars]] would raid Bordon that was defended by elements of the [[Thirteenth Marik Militia]]. This raid was implemented to draw away Free Worlds League forces so they could not reinforce [[Procyon]] and [[Wasat]] against [[Tikonov Free Republic]] attacks.<ref name=RI38/><ref name=RIp8>''Rhonda's Irregulars'', p. 8: "Fourth Succession War"</ref>

====Jihad====
In response to the recent raids and assaults on worlds within the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]], the Blakists launch raiding parties against various worlds around the Protectorate border in early September [[3076]]. Making use of weapons of mass destruction to worsen the damage inflicted, the raiding parties—few of which were larger than a single [[Level III]]—struck at the worlds of [[Algorab]], [[Alnasi]], [[Amity]], Bordon, [[Connaught]], [[Hunan]], [[Kessel]], [[New Hessen]], [[New Kyoto]], [[Ronel]], [[St. Andre]], [[Styk]], [[Tsitsang]], and [[Wei]]. Of the worlds hit, those affiliated with the [[Capellan Confederation]] took the brunt of the fighting.<ref name="JHS:Tp22">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 22: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

By comparison with worlds such as [[Galatea]] and [[Shiloh]], Bordon came through the Jihad with relatively light damage.<ref name=TRTCchap9>''To Ride The Chimera'', ch. 9</ref>
 
 
 
====Dark Age====
 
Annexed by the [[Republic of the Sphere]] during the 3080s, Bordon later received an influx of [[Draconis Combine]]-descended immigrants from Prefecture II. Relocated in accordance with the [[Resettlement Act of 3082]], the newcomers' industrial skills and culture had not been a good fit for Bordon's agricultural economy and native customs. Nonetheless,  [[Linette Ferguson]], elected governor in [[3127]], successfully worked to bridge the divide and managed to keep Bordon from falling into chaos after the [[Blackout]]. Later she negotiated Bordon's membership in the nascent [[Covenant Worlds]] on advantageous terms.<ref name=TRTCchap9/><ref name=TRtCc12/>
