Planetary History
Reunification War
Settled at some point point prior to the Age of War,[3] during the Reunification War Gallis became a target for the SLDF invasion of the Magistracy of Canopus during the third year of the military campaign. The Star League Defense Force task force commanded by Captain-General Marion Marik launched their attack on Gallis in January 2580 and while the planetary invasion force was smaller than those used during 2578 and 2579, it still consisted of a complete SLDF brigade - the 59th - supported by the 2nd Oriente Hussars and the Juggernaut regiment of the Stewart Dragoons.[5][31]
Whilst the defending Magistracy Armed Forces units on Gallis managed to sting the invading forces, contesting the invasion, they retreated before the SLDF could mount an effective pursuit, preserving their strength as part of a general refit and rearmament campaign both sides were conducting.[5] Although the SLDF would occupy Gallis for the remainder of the war, the system would remain a part of the Magistracy of Canopus.[6]
The Dark Age
During the Dark Age Gallis became the garrison posting of the prestigious Second Canopian Light Horse, who continued to be based on the planet until at least 3145. The Second's posting wasn't an idle one, however; Gallis was used by the Second as a springboard for raids into the former Free Worlds League region of space. When the Duchy of Andurien allied itself with the Capellan Confederation and the Magistracy, the Second continued their raiding habits, but redirected their raids towards those independent former League worlds near the Duchy's border. Ostensibly, the Second's raids were launched for the purpose of gathering intelligence, but Magestrix Ilsa Centralla had another goal in mind in the mid-thirty-second century; she hoped that the raids could force three of the independent worlds, Eleusis, Obrenovac and Scheuerheck into aligning themselves with the Duchy.[32]
