Summary

	Following the attack on the Endar Spire by the Sith battle fleet in hopes of capturing Jedi Padawan Bastila Shan, the destruction of Taris was an event that took place during the height of the Jedi Civil War. Intending to capture Bastila Shan, whose talents with battle meditation had been crucial to the Galactic Republic's effort against the Sith Empire led by Darth Malak, he set his fleet around the Outer Rim world of Taris. After successfully ambushing the vessel under Shan's command, Sith troopers boarded the ship, intent on seizing her alive. However, Shan, Carth Onasi and the amnesic ex-Sith Lord Revan were able to escape before the vessel's crashed down on the planet. Afterwards, Malak ordered the conquest and blockading of Taris in order to search for the Jedi. After some time Malak grew weary of the protracted search. Seeking to eliminate Shan, he ordered Admiral Saul Karath to thoroughly bombard the surface. Revan, Shan and others were blasted off for space in the Ebon Hawk, eluding a vanguard of attacking Sith fighters before fleeing into hyperspace. Despite their escape, the bombardment continued until the entire world was virtually scoured of life, killing billions of beings. However, Taris's ecosystem eventually recovered over the next three centuries, leading the Republic to resettle the planet. Read more...
