====Reunification War====
War between the [[Star League]] and the Magistracy of Canopus was inevitable after the Magistracy joined the other [[Periphery]] nations in rejecting the [[Pollux Proclamation]]; when the war began, Bethonolog was a key trade hub for the Magistracy of Canopus, and in December [[2579]] was targeted for conquest by the [[Star League Defense Force]] task force led by [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Marion Marik]]. The task force had faced setbacks earlier in the war, and was proceeding slowly in 2579, making sure that planets were targeted with overwhelming numbers of troops to reduce the effect of any resistance; as a result, on 3 December 2579, SLDF forces consisting of the [[Fifty-ninth Brigade|Fifty-ninth]] and [[Sixtieth Brigade]]s supported by the [[Second Orloff Grenadiers]] and the [[Third Regulan Hussars]] landed on Bethonolog under the overall command of SLDF General Mancini.<ref name="H:RWp101"/><ref name="H:RWp148">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 148: "Magistracy of Canopus Front (Jump-Off - 2582)"</ref>

Mancini expected to face resistance on Bethonolog and was already preparing plans for the assault on those positions held by the planetary militia when he received a message from the commander of the Canopian forces on the planet; the message stated that the militia [[Colonel]] intended to resist the occupation, but requested that the SLDF give permission for the military campaign to not begin until the 26th December. He further requested that the SLDF task force honor the spirit of the season by allowing the local population to enjoy Christmas, Chanukah, Al Hijira and Moharram, the traditional holidays of the various major religions on Bethonolog. Mancini agreed, and went so far as to have a Christmas pudding delivered to the militia commander; the Colonel responded by sending Mancini a bottle of the local wine and a turkey. When the military campaign finally began over the New Year, it lasted just a week and was half-hearted; despite this, honor was satisfied on both sides and the SLDF formally took control of the world from 9 January [[2580]].<ref name="H:RWp101"/> Although Bethonolog would be occupied until the end of the war, it remained a part of the Magistracy unlike the majority of the worlds occupied during the early years of the war.<ref name="H:RWp158"/>
