After the Republic and the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]] merged the KungsArme was reintegrated into the ''[[Clan Ghost Bear Touman|touman]]''. This process was only partially complete in [[3076]] when the survivors of [[Clan Ice Hellion]] started raiding Republic worlds. Kavalleri, Freemen, and Drakøn Clusters eventually drove the Hellions off of [[Holmsbu]].<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 70</ref>
