Line 11: Prior to the offensive, Capellan terrorists had stirred up old Capellan loyalties among the populace, as well as masterminding many terrorist attacks targeting the infrastructure of these systems. In the absence of national militaries, many local governors (and other concerned interests) seized the initiative to restore order. On the worlds where this restoration was successful, most governments were resentful of the apparent lack of interest by the [[Great Houses]], and set up their own nations. Some of these minor powers became influential enough to become multi-world nation-states. The constantly shifting web of alliances, as well as the rapid rise and fall of planetary-level governments led observers to dub this area of instability the Chaos March.
