| ==History==
| | As of [[2553|April 2553]], the militia had gained control of several {{Class|Calypso|exfiltration craft}}, which they kept at the [[New Tyne Airfield]].<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 184''</ref> The militia had acquired several human and [[Covenant]] aircraft including [[AC-220 Vulture]]s, [[AV-14 Hornet]]s, [[B-65 Shortsword]]s, [[D82-EST Darter]]s, and [[Type-52 Phantom]]s.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 103''</ref> |
| In [[2553#April|April of 2553]], [[Staffan Sentzke]] intended to use {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]'' to find out about [[Naomi-010|his daughter]]'s disappearance by threatening [[Earth]] with the ship. Then, he intended to hand the battlecruiser over to the militia.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 115''</ref> However, [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Malcolm Geffen]] and [[Corporal]] [[Vasily Beloi]], part of the highly covert [[Kilo-Five]] [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] intelligence unit, infiltrated the Venezian Militia to stop Sentzke. Using a tracer planted by Vaz, Kilo-Five attempted to seize control of ''Pious Inquisitor'' using Venezia's slipspace communicator. However, their hack was foiled by the ship's [[Huragok]], [[Sometimes Sinks]], who alerted Sentzke of the attempted intrusion.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''pages 240-245''</ref> The two were taken to the [[Stuttgart armory]] to be interrogated.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 246''</ref> They were eventually rescued when the rest of Kilo-Five raided the armory.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 338''</ref>

| In July of 2553, the Venezian Militia pledged their support to the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]]—a cult formed from the [[Covenant remnants|remnants]] of the [[Covenant]]—and provided them with weaponry and a safe haven in [[New Tyne]].<ref name="ll127">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 127-130'' (Google Play edition)</ref> The militia also formed allegiances with [[Minister of Protection|Minister]] [[Arlo Casille]] of the [[Gao Republic]], who wished to break [[Gao]]'s remaining ties with the [[Unified Earth Government]]. When the minister discovered the presence of [[Intrepid Eye|an ancilla]] on [[Gao]], he contacted the Venezian Militia and the Keepers.{{Ref/Reuse|ll61}} The militia, represented on Gao by [[Reza Linberk]], supported the Keepers in reaching the planet and attempting to retrieve the ancilla, though the militia covertly intended to steal the ancilla for themselves.{{Ref/Reuse|ll127}} However, the [[UNSC]] eventually managed to defeat the cult and leave Gao with the AI.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 334'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | | In [[2553]], [[Staffan Sentzke]] intended to use the ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]'' to find out about his daughter's disappearance by threatening [[Earth]] with the ship.
