====Early History====
The planet Marik was settled in [[2139]] by [[Antonín Marik]] acting under authority of the Terran Alliance.<ref name=HB:HMp60/> Granted to the Marik family, the world's fortunes have risen and fallen along with that of its ruling family. The planet's mineral wealth helped the Mariks attain economic prosperity after it declared independence from the Alliance in [[2238]]. In [[2241]], the [[Republic of Marik]] was founded, with Charles Marik at its head and Marik as one of the four founding members. When the Republic of Marik conquered [[Atreus (FWL)|Atreus]] in [[2246]], the Republic of Marik reinvented itself as the [[Marik Commonwealth]], with Marik as a member.<ref name=HB:HMp12>''Handbook: House Marik'', p. 12: "To The Stars"</ref> After the formation of the Free Worlds League in [[2271]], Marik became an interior world that was largely spared the ravages of war. League Central Coordination and Command (LCCC), the bureaucracy that run the [[Free Worlds League Military]], was headquartered on Marik. Though still the ancestral landhold of the Marik family, Marik was eclipsed in many ways by Atreus, the capital of the League.<ref name=HMp154/><ref name=HB:HMp60/>
