Summary
|
The Clone Wars (22–19 BBY) was the name given to the major galactic conflict fought between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The war was named after the clone troopers utilized by the Republic against the battle droid forces of the Separatists. These armies, the Grand Army of the Republic and the Separatist Droid Army, were two of the largest ever pitted against each other in galactic history, and the fighting between them rapidly spread to countless inhabited worlds.Beginning with the Battle of Geonosis | Battle of GeonosisEventThe Clone Wars | , both sides scored significant victories over the other, and at different times during the war either seemed likely to triumph. The first two years of the war saw both sides skirmish with and raid each other, while fighting a handful of significant battles and trying to gain allies while they built up their respective war industries. A series of Republic defeats in the war's second year culminated in Operation Durge's Lance, a major strike into the Core Worlds led by the Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies, General Grievous | Grievous(Kaleesh)CharacterMajor Characters | . After the defeat of Grievous' forces in the Core, however, the Republic gained traction when it mobilized its greater industrial base. Using superior numbers, the Republic drove Separatists from the Core and Colonies and engaged them in their own territories, a series of attritional campaigns known as the Outer Rim Sieges. In an effort to reverse the course of the war, Grievous launched a massive strike | Battle of Coruscant (ROTS)EventThe Clone Wars | on Coruscant | CoruscantPlanet | through the Deep Core. Much of the Confederate fleet was lost and their Head of State Count Dooku | Dooku(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | was killed over Coruscant. General Grievous was subsequently killed at the Battle of Utapau | Battle of UtapauEventThe Clone Wars | . The issuing of Order 66, which forcibly turned the Grand Army of the Republic against the Jedi Order | Jedi OrderOrganizationGalaxy-Wide Organizations | , and the deactivation of the droid army, brought an end to the fighting.
