'''IV Corps''' was part of the Tenth Army in 2765. Prior to 2765 it was primarily focused on defending the [[Capellan Confederation]]/[[Free Worlds League]] border, but with the unrest in the [[Periphery]] it was retraining to act as the Tenth Army's major offensive force against the [[Magistracy of Canopus]]. The IV Corps had the highest number of courts-martial and non-judicial punishments of any Corps in the [[SLDF]] because Major General Polviander refused to accept unprofessional behavior from any of his troops.<ref>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 126</ref>

Prior to 2765, it was primarily focused on defending the Capellan Confederation/Free Worlds League border, but with the unrest in the Periphery it was retraining to act as the Tenth Army's major offensive force against the Magistracy of Canopus. The IV Corps had the highest number of courts martial and nonjudicial punishments of any Corps in the SLDF because Major General Jorma Polviander refused to accept unprofessional behavior from any of his troops.[1]
