It was in the ComStar command post on Orestes that [[Primus of ComStar|Primus]] [[Sharilar Mori]] was assassinated by disaffected members of the ComStar [[ROM]], including the ROM head [[Victoria Parrdeau]], on the 26th of October [[3068]].<ref name="J:FRp46">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> Just five days after the assassination of Sharilar Mori the [[Word of Blake]] launched an assault on Orestes. While the exact number of attackers isn't known, the Blakist force included at least one [[WarShip]], a [[division]] of Word troops and an unidentified contingent of mercenaries; the Blakists fought savagely for a week, finally being routed on the 7th of November having mauled the [[104th Division (ComStar)|104th Division]] and the [[1st Tyr|1st Tyr Regiment]] and inflicted heavy damage on the ''[[Dante (WarShip class)|Dante]]''-class [[Bordeaux|CSV ''Bordeaux'']], one of the few WarShips left in service with ComStar after the disastrous [[Case White (event)|Case White]].<ref name="J:FRp46"/>

It was on Orestes on the 21st of August [[3070]] that [[Ragnar Magnusson]] spoke to the Free Rasalhague Republic government on behalf of [[Clan Ghost Bear]] and the Ghost Bear Dominion, beginning a series of negotiations to create an accord that would cover "all Rasalhagian peoples."<ref name="J:FRp48">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 48: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> Clan Ghost Bear arrived in [[3070]] and quietly assumed control of the world with the blessing of the population.

During the early moves of the [[Second Combine-Dominion War]], the [[Second Legion of Vega]] laid siege to the Odin Manufacturing Works on the Clytemnestra continent in an attempt to level the factory.  The initial operation was to be a lightning strike to destroy the facility, but the defending [[1st Kavalleri (Rasalhague Dominion)|First Kavalleri Cluster]] has been mostly been deployed around the area in expectation of an attack against a vital resource.  Thus on April 25, [[3099]], the week-long siege began with the Combine forces cutting off maglev lines and surface roads between the facility and the world's primary spaceport.  Artillery strikes against the manufacturing complex were constant and the entire facility was a ruin by the end of the siege.  Seeing the damage the production lines has taken, the Combine forces withdrew before Ghost Bear reinforcements could arrive.  Surprisingly, the First Kavalleri and one production line producing the [[Shadow Hawk]] [[BattleMech]] survived the onslaught.<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 1'', p. 4: "Battle History"</ref><ref>''Historical: Wars of the Republic Era'', p. 28: "Orestes"</ref>
