Three Capellan Chancellors held power during the course of the Davion Civil War - [[Kalvin Liao]], [[Mica Liao]] and [[Salicia Liao]] - and none would tolerate any official involvement in the Davion Civil War, despite those generals and nobles who felt that the Confederation should use the Civil War to invade. All three interfered in the Civil War, however, intent on destabilizing the Federated Suns. Acting in concert with those amongst the Capellan military and nobility who saw backing one of the factions in the Civil War as an opportunity to reclaim large regions of the Federated Suns, they agreed with Cassandra to provide military forces in exchange for agreements that would see worlds ceded to the Confederation if Cassandra was victorious.<ref name="HB:HDp35C">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 35: "Capellan Strings"</ref> Three Capellan Chancellors held power during the course of the Davion Civil War - [[Kalvin Liao]], [[Mica Liao]] and [[Salicia Liao]] - and none would tolerate any official involvement in the Davion Civil War, despite those generals and nobles who felt that the Confederation should use the Civil War to invade.
