<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Fall of Caliban''' was the capture of the [[StarCitizen:United Empire of Earth]] controlled [[StarCitizen:Caliban system]] by a [[StarCitizen:Vanduul]] clan in [[StarCitizen:2884]]. The actual battle and capture only lasted two days (7 to 8 July 2884) and was accompanied by an overhasty organized evacuation of 'most' of the system's inhabitants.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0Gz5DNryvE-fall-of-caliban|text=Galactapedia: Fall of Caliban|accessdate=2020-03-31}}</ref> Later attempts of the UEE to re-establish military control failed and ended with the abandonment of Caliban in the same month. <br />

The invading Vanduul forces surprised the UEE forces. The defending [[StarCitizen:UEE Navy]]'s [[StarCitizen:88th Squadron]] was annihilated (only one crewman survived)<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0Gz5BNmPqo-squadron-88|text=Galactapedia: Squadron 88 (The Lost Squad)|accessdate=2020-03-31}}</ref> protecting civilians trying to flee the system from the attacking [[StarCitizen:Vanduul]] fleet in the first two days. The Vanduul clan used a [[StarCitizen:Kingship]]. It was the last sighting of such a ship until [[StarCitizen:2945]].<br />
<br />
==Aftermath==<br />
On 9 July reinforcements of the UEE entered the system and fought against the intruders, but after heavy casualties, the system was finally abandoned on 23 July 2884. [[StarCitizen:Crion]] and all other planets were [[StarCitizen:Harvester|harvested]] by the Vanduul and are still under their control.<br />
