Edward Calderon was credited with ruling at least five separate worlds in the Concordat by [[3025]]: [[Burton]], [[Brisbane]], [[New Ganymede]], [[Sterope]], and [[Ishtar (system)|Ishtar]].<ref name=TPp>''The Periphery'', pp. 85–86: planet profiles</ref> Sadly, Edward was killed in a [[DropShip]] accident in March of [[3034]].<ref name=TP2Ep12>''The Periphery, 2nd Edition'', p. 12</ref>  The loss of Edward Calderon also cost Thomas a perceptive adviser just when he needed one most. Edward had been popular, and many had looked forward to his assumption of the Protectorship—especially Taurian business interests, many of whom had counted on Edward to open trade relations with the Federated Commonwealth. Edward did not share his father’s mania about the "perfidious Davions," and was at least cautiously willing to deal with them as a market for Taurian goods.<ref name=H:MPSp47>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 47</ref> His death led to a series of heirs apparent starting with his sister [[Janice Calderon]], then his brothers [[Ian Calderon]] and [[Felix Calderon]], and finally Edward's youngest sibling [[Jeffrey Calderon]], who eventually replaced his father Thomas in [[3055]] as Protector.<ref name=TP2Ep13-14>''The Periphery, 2nd Edition'', pp. 13–14</ref>  Edward's death is considered to be the trigger for Thomas Calderon's mental decline and subsequent unhappiness/resentment of the Taurian citizens.<ref name=20YUp75>''20 Year Update'', p. 75</ref>
