Work!Chris has been telling me for months that I should watch the last Firefly episode with the commentaries turned on because it "makes it a whole different episode". He's also said that there's a lot to be learned from the commentaries about the history of Earth-That-Was and
the colonization of the moons and planets.

Last night, I watched "Objects in Space" with Joss's commentary. While he discussed many interesting things about the theme of objects and their meaning that he'd been trying to portray in the episode, there wasn't a word about history.

Then I thought maybe I was misremembering Chris's recommendation and the history is in other commentaries. So I watched "The Message", with commentary by Alan Tudyk and Jewel Staite. Intermittently interesting, occasionally funny, but no new insights into the 'verse.

Which one is it that I should have watched? Anyone know?

I don't remember. But I've always found Joss commentaries to be amusing enough to watch them all.

What a horrible Firefly evangelist I am for not knowing the answer to your question off the top of my head. I'm going to have to watch all of the commentaries again now, in an attempt to redeem myself. :)
