Planetary History

Reunification War

Settled at some point prior to the end of the Age of War[1] Nobel was a member of the Magistracy of Canopus when a Star League Defense Force task force under the command of Captain-General Marion Marik was assigned to conquer the Magistracy of Canopus in 2577. Nobel was targetted by the SLDF in 2583 with an ad-hoc division consisting of the 57th Brigade, 61st Royal Brigade and 62nd Royal Brigade from VII Corps assigned to conquering Nobel.[3][35]

Nobel was a center for industry and light mining operations, but didn't merit a MAF garrison and was conquered in short order by the SLDF task force, part of a lightning campaign that saw four worlds conquered in two months, completing the encirclement of Canopus. Nobel would be occupied by the SLDF for the remainder of the war; once the Reunification War ended, a number of Magistracy worlds were annexed by the Free Worlds League, but Nobel remained a part of the Magistracy.[3][4]
