'''''Handbook: House Marik''''' is the definitive book on the [[Free Worlds League]], having incorporated all previously written materials on the [[Successor State]]. This volume contains a detailed history of the League and House Marik up to [[3067]], brief histories of some of the League's more important planets, and an explanation of how its Parliamentary form of government works. The book glosses over the [[Free Worlds League Military]] and [[SAFE]], since those organizations were detailed at length in ''[[Field Manual: Free Worlds League]]'' and ''[[A Guide to Covert Ops]]'', respectively. The source information wraps up with an analysis of the many cultures of the FWL and what drives its economy, including a detailed list of the League's most important companies. The book ends with additional rules to be incorporated into [[Classic BattleTech]] and [[MechWarrior (RPG)|CBT:RPG]] games. These include expanded sub-regions, skills, and new life paths for roleplayers, and new environments and unit types for war gamers.

{{quote|''Wracked for centuries by civil wars, [[House Marik]]'s [[Free Worlds League]] has endured by virtue of the tenacity and diversity of its people. Now, led by the strongest [[Thomas Marik|Captain-General]] in half a millennium, House Marik has stretched its wings, pushing the shadows of its influence across the [[Inner Sphere]]. Both by its revitalized military and an economic might that challenges even the ages-old dominance of [[House Steiner]], the eagle soars proudly, as do the people who wave its banner.''
