Task Force 131 was a multinational special operations unit composing of members from different Lucis Commonwealth nations as well as operatives from Quenmin, Bethausia, Joyonghea, Taoyuan, Esthar and Balamb, and other nationalities. The officer unit was composed of Second Europan War veterans while trained special operatives composed majority of the lower ranking members. Its overall commander was Field Marshal Daidoji Kitagawa until his retirement in 1975, in which he was succeeded by his son Arata Kitagawa, who in turn was succeeded by his son, Kiriya Kitagawa in 1986. It was the spiritual successor to the Special Operations Executive companies that operated during EWII and the early phases of WoLA.

The Task Force was first created in late 1957, when the War of Lorican Aggression escalated into a worldwide conflict, prompting several Allied planners to create counter special task force units that can carry out unconventional warfare behind enemy lines. The task of the creation fell to Field Marshal Kitagawa. The group performed well and was highly praised for its actions in helping Allied units achieve their objectives. The unit continued to carry out its functions well through the crisis until the end in 1994. The unit was disbanded in 1995 by then-Colonel Kiriya Kitagawa after several member states created their own special operations task force units. TF 131's role was continued by Colonel Kitagawa through the creation of the Special Operations and Airbourne Force that existed until 2012. In 2015, Kiriya would create Task Force 141, the spiritual successor to both TF 131 and the SOAF.

Task Force 131's legacy as the most active allied special forces unit made a mark that defined modern special operations tactics. Its legacy was passed on to its modern counterparts, Task Force 141, Task Force 219, and Task Force 853.
