1731 Sanaman police mission in Cybwlach
The 1731 Sanaman police mission in Cybwlach began on 20.I.1731 when four Independence-class landing docks, six Terhiya-class logistics support vessels and two Semisa-class light aircraft carriers, escorted by six Halimpan-class escort frigates, two Nakita-class destroyers and one Sanilla-class guided missile cruiser, departed Sanaman waters for Aran in Cybwlach. The task force carried two full Marine Expeditionary Regiments, about 6,600 Marines, plus a reduced provost batallion of about 400 soldiers. The police mission was a response to the political upheaval in Calbion, increased offensive posturing by the Benacian Union, crisis in the Suren Confederacy and a potential war between the Benacian Union and Shireroth. The first stage of the mission was to establish control over Aran, and to prepare for a second stage where military and security control was to be extended to the entire principality. On 29.I.1731, the task force arrived at Aran and unloaded both personnel and cargo.
