The Eridanus secessionists[3] were a well-armed rebel cell[1] of the Secessionist Union.[2]

History[edit]

In June 2494,[2] the Eridanus secessionists would begin a campaign against the Eridanus Government[3] on Eridanus II[2] using equipment supplied by traitors within the Colonial Military Authority.[3] Local authorities would be overrun[2] and by January 2495, the colony would be under the control of the secessionists.[1][2] The Eridanus Government would petition for aid.[3]

This would lead to Operation: CHARLEMAGNE and result in the colony being recaptured by the UNSC.[2] However, this did not result in the destruction of the secessionists.[3]
