Follow the Tribal Trail Monuments
One of the event's challenges leads you to the Tribal Trial which consists of different monuments regarding the Minmatar Liberation. Every visited location contributes points to the chosen tribe and the Agency Campaign Rewards.
The Eternal Flame
Location: Pator 1.0
Build by the government shortly after the formation of the Minmatar Republic, the massive sculpture called "The Eternal Flame" is meant to symbolize the everlasting passion and resilient spirit of the Minmatar people. In particular, it has come to stand for the determination of the Minmatar to remain free and liberate all of their people from slavery.
Minmatar Mining Corporation Testing Facility
Location: Hagilur 0.4
The Scythe-class cruiser remains the oldest Minmatar ship still in use. It has seen many battles and is an integrated element of many Minmatar tales and the material heritage of the tribes. A significant number of Scythes found their way into the hands of the Minmatar resistance. Upgunned and armored by rebel crews, the Scythewas an important combat ship at the outbreak of the Great Rebellion BYC20.
Golgothan Fields
Location: Ennur 0.1
A few weeks after the start of the rebellion in BYC20, the Minmatar met with the Amarr in a fierce battle. The Minmatar eventually withdrew, but not before dealing heavy casualties to the Amarr forces, Most importantly, the Amarr lost many capital ships and were left with considerably reduced offensive power in the frontlines of their attempt to defeat the Great Rebellion.
Lord Bastion
Location: Hjoramold 0.5
Shattered remnants of a formidable space fortress built by Lord Basad, the governer of the Ani constellation in early BYC19, during the time of the Great Rebellion, to hold off the rebel forces. This fortress stood for two months in orbit of Hjoramold XII and its ruins act as a reminder of both the cruelty of the Amarr and the spirit of the Minmatar.
Battle Of Fort Kavad
Location: Odatrik 0.8
The Battle of Fort Kavad in BYC17 was the final blow by Minmatar freedom fighters that prevented an Amarr counter-offensive and secured the territories of what would become the Minmatar Republic. Catching an assembling Amarr taskforce by surprise, the massed strike by Minmatar forces destroyed the core of the battleship fleets committed to reconquer the Minmatar. After Fort Kavad, the Amarr Emperor called a halt to such attempts and the Minmatar had won their freedom.
Karishal Muritor Memorial Construction Site
Location: Auga 0.4
After his death in YC109, Captain Karishal Muritor has come to be seen within the Minmatar Republic as farsighted in his recognition of the reality that compromise with the Amarr Empire's expansionist ambitions is a trap the Minmatar cannot afford to fall into. His Actions may be seen as precipitate and rash by some but his cause is one the majority of Minmatar recognize as just.
Yulai Ship Graveyards
Location: Yulai 1.0
In YC110, in order to free the survivors of the Starkmanir Tribe still held under Amarr rule, the Minmatar-Thukker Elder Fleet unleashed their forces on CONCORD, incapacitating their ability to deploy peacekeeping forces at speed. This stroke left Amarr space vulnerable and the Elder Fleet turned to launch an attack on the Empire that would free untold numbers of slaves.
Ammatar Battle Site
Location: Jarizza 0.8
Highest priority among the goals of the Minmatar-Thukker Elder fleet in YC110 was a massive assault against the Ammatar Mandate system of Jarizza. The survivors of the Starkmanir Tribe had been revealed as hidden on the planet Halturzhan (Jarizza VI) and the Elder Fleet destroyed a hastily-assembled Ammatar Fleet before moving to recover their kin. Many Nefantar defected alongside the Starkmanir they had hidden for so long.
Tribal Council Orbital Caravanserai
Location: Pator 1.0
With the return of the Nefantar and Starkmanir to the Minmatar fold, it only remained for the Thukker Tribe to rejoin for the Seven Tribes of Matar to be once more united. After negotiations that favored the Thukker in every respect, the nomads officially joined the Republic in YC111, with full autonomy in Great Wildlands. The Tribal Council of the Seven Chiefs and the Sanmatar was established to govern the new Tribal Republic of the Minmatar.
