Furillo was among the targets of a [[Draconis Combine]] deep raid campaign in February [[2830]]. The strikes, known as KUROI KAZE, struck deep inside the border at worlds considered to be safely within the Protectorate of Donegal. House Kurita's attacks incensed [[Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth|Archon]] [[Marcus Steiner]], who declared war on the Combine the following month.<ref name="SSW(SB)p31-32">''Second Succession War'', pp. 31–32: "The Dragon Strikes: Red Wind, Black Wind"</ref> Furillo would also be attacked by [[FWLM]] forces in 2846, as House Marik attempted to reverse its costly losses during the [[ComStar War]].<ref name="SSW(SB)p67">''Second Succession War'', p. 67: "La Reconquista"</ref>

After the death of Archon [[Claudius Steiner]] in [[2849]], the [[Estates General]] established the [[Triumvirate Regency]] to run the state until his daughter [[Elizabeth Steiner|Elizabeth]] came of age. Furillo's representative, [[Henry DeCalidore]], was the Speaker of the Assembly at the time and served to represent the interests of the Commonwealth's government within the regency. DeCalidore would propose taking the [[LCS Invincible|LCS ''Invincible'']] out of mothballs to save Hesperus II from falling to the Draconis Combine. The success of the operation may have saved the Lyran Commonwealth, but it only exacerbated the Speaker's tendency to self-aggrandize.<ref name="SSW(SB)p71">''Second Succession War'', p. 71: "Regency and Revenge"</ref>

Archon [[Alessandro Steiner]] was born in Kelestra City on Furillo in [[2957]] and would go into exile there following [[Katrina Steiner]] taking the throne.
