Planetary History

War between the Star League and the Magistracy of Canopus was inevitable after the Magistracy joined the other Periphery nations in rejecting the Pollux Proclamation; Butzfleth was an early target in the initial Star League Defense Force campaign against the Magistracy. Tasked with capturing Butzfleth was the 60th Brigade, one of three brigades that made up the Star League Defense Force 20th Division, supported by two SLDF Independent Regiments, the 402nd and 403rd.[1][22]

The defenders on Butzfleth consisted of a skeleton garrison drawn from the 3rd Battalion of the 1st Canopian Fusiliers, who were overwhelmed by the 60th Brigade in a campaign that took just two days, ending on Halloween of 2577.[1] The Magistracy of Canopus had thirteen worlds annexed by the Free Worlds League, either during the Reunification War[7] or by Star League decree in 2602,[23] and Butzfleth was one of these worlds.
