The beginnings of the pirate realm known as the '''Tortuga Dominions''' were laid during the later stages of the 20 year campaign against the [[Taurian Concordat]] conducted by the [[Star League]] as a part of the [[Reunification War]]. A unit from the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]], the [[237th Light Cavalry Regiment]], was all but destroyed as a result of a wasteful raid against the Taurian world of [[Sterope]]. The survivors of the 237th found themselves unable to hold their position and generally unwilling to return to [[Federated Suns]] space only to be thrown back into the fray again; instead, the members of the 237th decided to head out further into the Periphery.<ref name="TP1Ep154">''The Periphery (sourcebook)'', p. 154 - "Tortuga Data"</ref>
