 | | When the Terran Empire forced a landing on New Israel nearly two centuries later, Legio III formed the nucleus of the Haganah (a centuries-old name for Jewish resistance), whose actions made Terran positions untenable in just over a Terran year, despite the enormous initial invasion force and constant reinforcements from the Empire. |
 | | When the Terran Empire invaded New Israel at the beginning of the Republic-Empire War, Jews didn't do all the fighting; the world's ethnic Shinto/Japanese population had, mindful of the buildup of Terran forces before the outbreak of hostilities, formed their own planetary militia, which most Jeffersonians informally call the Samurai Legion. |
 | | Occupied by Terran forces during the War, much of its output during that period was pressed into Imperial service - or would have been, if not for frequent Haganah raids on the facilities, and widespread sabotage among the natives forced to labor in the factories. |
