==History==
 
===Formation===
 
The Marik Commonwealth was founded by [[Charles Marik (23rd c.)|Charles Marik]] in [[2246]], as the successor to the [[Republic of Marik]]. When Republican forces captured Atreus as part of a campaign to expand the Republic by conquest, Charles moved his capital from the world of Marik to Atreus, reinventing the Republic as a new nation.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p8">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 8-9, "Marik Origins"</ref><ref name=HB:HMp12/>
 
 
 
===Early Years===
 
In [[2265]], the ruler of the Marik Commonwealth, [[Alonzo Marik]], extended an offer to join the Commonwealth to the nations on the world of [[New Olympia]]; the three nations had been involved in numerous internal conflicts prior to this point, with the [[Terran Alliance]] having twice been forced to mount military interventions in the late twenty-second and early twenty-third centuries. Two of the nations on New Olympia, Kasnov and New Greenland, accepted Alonzo's offer; the third, Olympica, refused. The Marik Commonwealth then attempted to use military force to bring Olympica into the Commonwealth, but these efforts were stymied thanks to the intervention of the [[Regulan Principality]]. Olympica would ultimately be recognized as an independent principality by the Commonwealth, an independence it would continue to enjoy and exploit until at least the late thirty-first century.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p154">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 154, "New Olympia"</ref>
