The [[Eridanus Rebels]] had staged a localized rebellion against the UNSC in [[2494]]. The UNSC struck back two years later and forced the rebels out at the cost of four [[UNSC Destroyer|destroyers]]. A large number of rebels survived, however, and under the command of the UNSC turncoat [[Colonel (UNSC)|Colonel]] [[Robert Watts]], overthrew the civilian government of the system in [[2513]]. Watts was presumed killed in the UNSC's counterattack, [[Operation: TREBUCHET]], but in fact he escaped to [[Eridanus Secundus]] in the system's asteroid belt with the rest of the rebels. | The [[Eridanus Rebels]] had staged a localized rebellion against the UNSC in [[2494]].
