The Twelfth Pius Dea Crusade was a religious crusade launched by the Pius Dea-controlled Galactic Republic against the Zarracines of Zarracina III and the Teirasans of the Teirasa system that occurred in 11,660 BBY. The crusade ended with a Republic bombardment of Zarracina III and the near extinction of the Zarracine species.

The crusade[]

When the planet Zarracina III was discovered by the Galactic Republic in 11,660 BBY, the Republic forces attempted to conquer the native Zarracines. However, the Zarracines resisted the Pius Dea-controlled government's attempt, and in response the Republic bombarded the planet's surface. The attack drove the Zarracines to extinction and irradiated the planet's surface, destroying all life.[2]

The Republic forces also launched an attack against the Teirasans of the Teirasa system from Ord Dorlass and Ord Zynthar, battling the Teirasans to an unknown outcome.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

The destruction of Zarracina III, part of the Twelfth Pius Dea Crusade, first appeared in the Hyperspace.com-exclusive story Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Praji.[2] The crusade was further expanded upon in the 2012 reference guide The Essential Guide to Warfare.[1]
