The history of Rheinland begins with the arrival of it's sleeper ship in Sirius in 2 A.S. Landing in the southern fringes of the sector, nearby the resource rich Walker Nebula, Rheinland was assured an abundancy in natural resources unlike any other house, although still devoid of fuel gases. It's imperial government attempted to secure gas fields in the nearby Crow Nebula by declaring war on the Gas Miners Guild in 589 A.S. Rheinland's push was unsuccessful however, and ended in the country descending into chaos at the dawn of 672 A.S., the date of the Popular Revolution.

The Federal Republic would be formally recognised in 673 A.S., and would slowly descend back into military dictatorship over the following years, until the Nomad War of 800 A.S. After the destruction of the infested Rheinland fleet that attacked Kusari, the house would finally begin rebuilding slowly, until being falling under the control of Chancellor Reinhardt in 813 A.S. only to be established under his boot as a fascist dictatorship.
