Galactic Civil War

The Galactic Civil War, also known as the Rebellion or the Revolution, was an large-scale insurgency in the galaxy between the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic. The goal of the Alliance to Restore the Republic was to restore the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order. It started in 4 BBY with the Action at Mustafar where the Rebels won their first major victory against the Galactic Empire, successfully rescuing Kanan Jarrus and killing the Grand Inquistor. Full scale fighting began after the Battle of Scarif where the Alliance to Restore the Republic won a very major victory against the Empire and successfully stole the plans to the Death Star they needed to destory it in the Battle of Yavin. Three years later, the Galactic Empire almost destroyed the Alliance at the Battle of Hoth with the capture of Echo Base and the main Rebel leaders being put on the run. The Galactic Civil War came very close to ending with the incredibly decisive Rebel Alliance victory at the Battle of Endor and the destruction of much of the Imperial leadership, including Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader. A year after the Battle of Endor the Galactic Civil War ended with the Imperial defeat at the Battle of Jakku followed by the Galactic Concordance. Much of the Galactic Civil War also overlapped with the Great Jedi Purge and some overlapped with the Mandalorian Civil War. Following the Battle of Jakku, the Galactic Empire was dissolved into various remnants and the New Republic successfully established itself as the true galactic government. Near the end of the war, Luke Skywalker reestablished the Jedi Order as the New Jedi Order.

Prelude

The Clone Wars began ending after the Battle of Coruscant where Count Dooku was killed and Sheev Palpatine was "rescued" by Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Confederacy of Independent Systems lost large amounts of its navy and one of its main leaders. Following this, the Siege of Mandalore resulted in Ahsoka Tano defeating Darth Maul on Mandalore and destroying the Shadow Collective. Then, the Separatist forces on Kashyyyk were defeated in the Battle of Kashyyyk. The majority of the Separatist forces on Mygeeto we eliminated in the Fourth Battle of Mygeeto shortly after. The Clone Wars truely ended with the Battle of Utapau, where all the Separatist forces there were defeated and the Separatist leader and warlord General Grievous was killed. After the death of Grievous, the Jedi discovered that Palpatine was Darth Sidious. This led to Mace Windu, Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar, and Saesee Tiin confronted Sidious in his office. Three of the Jedi were killed by Palpatine, but Mace Windu was killed after Anakin intervened on Palpatine's behalf. Shortly after, Darth Sidious executed Order 66 and began the Great Jedi Purge. This was opened with the Siege of the Jedi Temple, where hundreds to thousands of Jedi were killed by Anakin and the Grand Army of the Republic. Anakin, renamed "Darth Vader" by this point, went to Mustafar and killed all the remaining Separatist leadership. Obi-Wan Kenobi then confronted Vader on Mustafar and defeated him, leaving the Sith burning to death. Meanwhile, Yoda battled Sidious in building of the Galactic Senate on Coruscant. Yoda was almost defeated, but managed to escape. Darth Sidious then went to Mustafar and saved Vader from death, building him into a cybernetic warriror similar to that of Grievous. With Palpatine having no opposition, he proclaimed himself the Emperor and formed the Galactic Empire. Emperor Palpatine reformed the Grand Army of the Republic and various other components of the Galactic Republic's military into the Imperial Military to nominally combat the various Separatist holdouts. This began the early rebellion against the Galactic Empire with various pre-Alliance insurgents, Order 66 Jedi survivors, Separatist holdouts, and other groups rebelling against the Empire. Following Ezra's broadcast to the people of Lothal to fighting against the Empire, the rebellions escalated into the Galactic Civil War.

Aftermath

After the Battle of Jakku, the last holdouts of the Galactic Empire were crushed. Various Moffs and Imperial continued to exist afterwards. Some of these Imperial remnants, such as the one led by Moff Gideon, stayed within the galaxy and continued to actively fight and survive. Despite this, the majority of the Imperial remnants fled to the Unknown Regions and began organizing in secret as the First Order. The Alliance to Restore the Republic was disbanded after the war and the New Republic officially came to power with the majority of the Rebel leaders becoming politicians. Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker, near the closure or sometime after the Galactic Civil War, began finding and uniting the remaining Jedi in the galaxy and formed the New Jedi Order. However, the First Order would begin the threaten the New Republic over 20 years later and begin the Cold War.
