Errai was settled with the intent of becoming a major industrial world, and it succeeded. Fusion reactors, IndustrialMechs, heavy industrial equipment, and electronics firms flooded the world with workers. For most of it's history Errai was controlled by the Federated Suns but it was briefly held by the Draconis Combine before becoming part of the Republic of the Sphere.

Errai was settled with the intent of becoming a major industrial world, and it succeeded. Fusion reactors, IndustrialMechs, heavy industrial equipment, and electronics firms flooded the world with workers over time. By the 24th Century Errai was already a wealthy independent world, and shortly after Errai had signed a mutual defence pact with the nearby worlds of [[Helen]] and [[Quentin]] it was targetted for conquest by [[Director-General]] [[James McKenna]] of the newly-formed [[Terran Hegemony]]. Having secured his hold over all of the worlds within the rump state of the [[Terran Alliance]], McKenna began a "Campaign of Persuasion" to bring other former Alliance worlds and independent worlds into the Hegemony through military force, and the three allied worlds of Errai, Helen and Quentin were his first targets.<ref name="SLSBp16">''The Star League'', p. 16, "Terra's Errant Flock"</ref>

Errai was settled with the intent of becoming a major industrial world, and it succeeded. Fusion reactors, IndustrialMechs, heavy industrial equipment, and electronics firms flooded the world with workers over time. By the 24th Century Errai was already a wealthy independent world, and shortly after Errai had signed a mutual defence pact with the nearby worlds of Helen and Quentin it was targetted for conquest by Director-General James McKenna of the newly-formed Terran Hegemony. Having secured his hold over all of the worlds within the rump state of the Terran Alliance, McKenna began a "Campaign of Persuasion" to bring other former Alliance worlds and independent worlds into the Hegemony through military force, and the three allied worlds of Errai, Helen and Quentin were his first targets.[6]

McKenna attacked the Errai system with a large fleet of WarShips, and despite knowing that there was litle chance of resisting the invasion the leaders of each of the three allied worlds planned to teach McKenna a lesson; all three worlds converted fleets of cargo and interplanetary courier ships into fighting vessels by adding lasers and missile tubes to battle in space, and all three worlds beefed up their ground forces with large militia forces of trained personnel augmented by volunteers. The colonists on Errai fought a dogged, even fanatical, campaign of resistance against the Hegemony Armed Forces before finally being conquered, and the resistance offered by those on Errai taught the HAF a number of harsh lessons.[6]

After the formation of the Second Star League, the Maltex Corporation received investment capital from Comstar to reconstruct their factories on the world for the production of Wyverns and Thugs battlemechs. By 3064, the factories were in production again.[7][8] Throughout the Federated Commonwealth Civil War, Errai was garrisoned by Harlock's Warriors. The world was raided by the Combine in 3068. In 3069, the world came under attack by the Word of Blake, and after a long guerrilla campaign, Harlock's Warriors fled the world in 3070 due to lack of supplies.[9][10]
