==History==
===Star League Era===
All of the ''Concordat''-class frigates to be produced were launched before the end of the [[Reunification War]].<ref name="H:RWp218">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 218–219: "Concordat (Frigate)"</ref> A number survived the War, despite the conquest of the various [[Periphery]] nations by the [[Star League Defense Force]]; seven of these vessels were still actively serving in either the [[Magistracy of Canopus]] or [[Taurian Concordat]] navies during the closing years of the [[Star League]].<ref name="FR2765:Pp4">''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 4: "WarShips of the Territorial States"</ref>

One of the seven ''Concordats'' still in service was the TCS '''''Marantha Calderon''''';<ref name="FR2765:Pp24">''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 24: "II Corps"</ref> one of six ''Concordat''-class frigates within the Taurian navy as of April [[2765]],<ref name="FR2765:Pp4"/> the ''Marantha Calderon'' and two of her sister ships, the [[Parilicium|TCS ''Parilicium'']] and [[Parin|TCS ''Parin'']], were deployed in support of [[II Corps (Taurian Concordat)|II Corps]] of the [[Taurian Defense Force]]. II Corps was deployed on the border of the [[Federated Suns]], and the ''Marantha Calderon'' and her sister ships had been assigned to assist the three active regiments of II Corps in deploying rapidly as needed. Each of the three ships was assigned in support of a particular regiment; the ''Marantha Calderon'' was supporting the [[Hyades Guards]] at the time.<ref name="FR2765:Pp24"/>

===Periphery Uprising===
With the exception of the ''Parin'', the ''Marantha Calderon'' and her sister ships were casualties of the [[Periphery Uprising]], which saw the Taurian Concordat WarShip fleet destroyed by the [[Star League Defense Force]].<ref name="FSWp101">''First Succession War'', p. 101: "The Taurian–Canopian War (2813–2814)"</ref>

==Notes==
* The destruction of the Periphery WarShip fleets during the uprising was noted by the author of ''[[First Succession War (sourcebook)]]'' on the Catalyst forums and confirmed by a BattleTech Developer, although not in the ''Ask The Writers'' or ''Ask the Lead Developer'' forum, so this note is not definitive until confirmed elsewhere:

* Given the lack of any new WarShips apparently being constructed between the end of the Periphery Uprising in 2766 and the end of the First Succession War in 2821 it is likely, but not certain, that the Periphery nations had also lost the ability to manufacture new WarShips through the destruction or crippling of the relevant shipyards.
