Corania is a world of the Imperium.[1a]
At one point in late M41 the planet was attacked by the tyranids. Despite the sudden nature of the attack and suffering horrendous casualties, the Imperial Guard Regiments stationed on Corania survived for over a year before being relieved by Imperial Navy reinforcements supported by elements from the Reclaimers and the Swords of the Emperor Chapters.[1a]
Amongst the regiments stationed on Corania that fought in the world's defence were the Valhallan 296th and 301st. Both of these suffered badly, enduring heavy losses (including the death of both regiments' commanders and senior officers).[1a] In the aftermath of the conflict the two regiments were combined into the Valhallan 296th/301st[1a] (which later came to be known as the Valhallan 597th).[1b]
