The Unification Wars are also known as the First Antarean War. Start is usually given as the surprise attack by Lucan Andromedeus III on Tar Shenna.
The AISN launched coordinated strikes on over fifty systems, completely bypassing the fortified defensive perimeter established by Mournecreek and Cinnabar, and assaulting nearly two-dozen stellar nations at once. The effect was unprecedented, immediately calling on the promises made prior to the signing of the ULP charter, the Taureans and members of the DUF cried out for assistance from Mournecreek and Cinnabar, both of which had been able to repel the onslaught of the Imperial Navy.
Honouring their agreement, units belonging to the respective navies of each country joined together under the banner of the ULP. Their first task as an allied navy was daunting, halting the second wave of Antarean attacks. Choosing Oleand, the capital-system of the little-known Sidemore Republic, as a staging area the newly formed United Space Navy its first attack into the Imperial Occupation Zone (IOZ) in a counter-strike designed to dilute Antarean naval strength long enough for the Allies to form more solid defensive plans. As smaller nations flocked to the ULP flag for the protection, the USN grew stronger and bolder.
Despite superior leadership and courage, it took nearly twelve years of grinding combat before USN forces finally halted the Antarean advance at the Battle of Drydoon in 857 AE. Following Drydoon, the USN claimed a string of victories over the beaten Antarean Space Navy pushing them well out of allied space and driving deep into Imperial space. The decisive battle of the war came in 861 AE in the Antares system where USN won a desperate victory over the beleaguered remnants of the AISN, destroying the Imperial worldship Andromedeus, flagship of the Andromedeus clan, and dubbed "impenetrable" for nearly two-centuries.
