Planetary History

Mirfak was a hot dry world with a population of roughly 49,000 in 3028. At that point the planet had several small productive mines being worked, producing germanium and other valuable radioactive ores and the local government was attempting to establish larger, more profitable mining concerns to improve trade. The degree of security surrounding that matter suggested a substantial find somewhere in the Mirfak system. The planet had no HPG facility.[1]

When Baron Cham Kithrong elected to create the Calderon Protectorate, four worlds garrisoned by VI Corps formed the basis of the Protectorate. Mirfak was one of these worlds - and was one of the first worlds to be attacked by TDF forces loyal to the Concordat. The VI Corps elements on Mirfak were pushed offworld by October 3066, and while the Protectorate contested the Concordat control of Mirfak in 3067, the world remained a Concordat world in every practical sense.[7] The fighting on Mirfak as a result of the formation of the Protectorate cost Taurus Majoris Mining their facilities on Mirfak.[15]

On the 23rd of May 3072 forces from the Calderon Protectorate raided a number of Taurian Concordat worlds, including Mirfak.[16][17] After the Jihad Mirfak became an independent world[10] and then transferred its allegience to the Calderon Protectorate.[18]
