Galactic Civil War (Earth-2042)

"The Galactic Civil War was not a battle for territory. It was a struggle for the hearts and minds of the galaxy."

- Wartime propaganda artist Janyor of Bith years after the war's end

The Galactic Civil War was a five-year galactic power struggle in which the Alliance to Restore the Republic waged a rebellion against the ruling Galactic Empire in an attempt to restore democratic rule to the galaxy. The origins of rebellion could be traced to the Clone Wars, when rebel cells were equipped by the Galactic Republic and the Systems Alliance to fight against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. After Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, secretly the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, transformed the Republic into the Empire and destroyed the Jedi Order, many rebel cells began fighting against the Empire. A number of these cells eventually joined together and became the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
