As Chancellor, Dainmar left much to be desired. Modern researchers believe that he did more damage to his realm during the Second Succession War than his enemies did. During the [[Davion Assault Guards]]' assault on [[St. Ives]] in [[2861]], Dainmar Liao spent most of his time huddling under a bed in a secure bunker. Finally he sued for peace with [[Colonel]] [[Melissa Davion]]. The terms of the peace were harsh: The Capellan Confederation would recognize the territorial gains the [[Federated Suns]] made at their expense.<ref name=hbhlp32/><ref>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 76</ref>

The most far reaching positive act of Dainmar's reign was the authorization to create [[Warrior House]]s. These elite troops would add considerable skill and durability to a nation that was reeling from the devastation of the recent fighting.<ref name=hbhlp32/>

One theory that explains why the [[Prefectorate]] ratified Dainmar was proposed in [[3067]]. Apparently [[Angmar Liao]] wanted to put Dainmar on the [[Celestial Throne]] in order to have him assassinated so she could become regent to Dainmar's son Otto. This plan didn't succeed however, and Dainmar abdicated the throne in favor of his son in [[2866]].<ref name=hbhlp32>''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 32</ref>
