First Gallic War

[SummerMcLovin]

I'll drop my understanding of it here.

I'd guess that Normandy had some control of or at least the range to attack all of Maine and perhaps further, but the line was pushed back from Le Mans to Mayenne and then the Normandy gate itself at which point the surrender negotiations took place. While the war was raging, they cooperated with some GRP and the Unione Corse (those were mentioned in infocards, could be others) and I guess there would be some who know about it and/or were descended from those who did.

The Royalist Gallia that remains today "won", and the Normandy rebels chose isolation rather than total annihilation (which was in the Royalists' favour, since it didn't cost them further losses). There would still be some military force on the other side of the gate but nothing to match the GRN these days (I doubt even Igiss had plans for another 10 systems full of resources, seems more to be one or two at most).
The Nogent-le-Rotroi battlegroup is ready to defend Maine from an initial attack force, and Segre is poised to completely destroy the gate to prevent escape or reinforcements. Doesn't seem likely that Normandy would try anything, given there has been little contact between the two sides and no hostility for about 200 years. Think of it like the Armistice Station in Battlestar Galactica.

I'm not sure what your plans are here, but there's absolutely no way for any contact between Normandy and Gallia without the GRN knowing about it. You could RP as supporting their ideas but they're not coming back, and no-one's getting through that wall of GRN steel any time soon.

EDIT: And yeah kikatsu, Gallic Artifacts have been retconned (I think they are now the Hogosha's "Sorted Artifacts").
