galaxy forever the origin of the Clone Wars can be traced back to the creation of the separatist movement 24 years before the Battle of Yavin on roxas prime don't you two former Jedi Master announced his intention to secede from the Galactic Republic demonstrating to the people of the industrial world that the Republic had become a corrupt and unstable body rotting from the inside being consumed by the corruption much like a rocks and garbage worm so to do is secretly an apprentice to the Sith Lord Darth Sidious who was under the guise of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and was instructed to do this by his master he wasn't wrong about the state of things the Republic had indeed become a corrupt decaying ancient government in need of dire change and many systems saw this and rallied to Dooku and his new Confederacy of Independent Systems based on the ideals of a weaker central government and stronger planetary government the Confederacy of Independent Systems or CIS grew to around 6,000 members systems by 22 BBY once more Dooku is able to coach the six major industrial powers in the galaxy to join the cause with back Toit armor workshop producing battle droids intergalactic banking

peaceful coexistence between the two galactic governments the military Creation Act was the main topic of debate and when senator Padme Amidala the chief opposition to the proposed legislation survived an assassination attempt Jedi Knight obi-wan Kenobi tracked her would-be assassin to Kamino where he also discovered that an order had been placed for a clone army 10 years prior what 10,000 units of clone troopers ready to be deployed and senator Amidala absent the Senate folded up to the mounting pressure in the military Creation Act was passed in 22 melee why 200 Jedi and an army of clones ascended up on Geonosis and attempt to end the war in one battle however Dooku and the separatist leaders were able to escape and evacuate their forces the Republic victory of Geonosis kicked off the Clone Wars and the Republic could have pressed their advantage and overrun Confederacy space however the rewards and the clone troops are ready and a million more troopers were still in the final stages of training the CIS exploited this fact and deployed their forces along the major hyperspace lanes fortifying its defenses Republic forces invaded a tracking while the Confederacy invaded

second year of the war came to a close and with the CIS making substantial gains in the core as well as in the northeast quadrant of the galaxy it was clear that the Republic was on the losing side

dread-nots and a battle when a CI asleep and his assistants however the readily loyalists prevailed and assisted the Republican beating back defense after operations urgent lance and general Grievous's subsequent conquests the republic was losing the war and badly to counter this the republic deployed a new wave of clone troopers from Kamino along with clones secretly from sin tax to using the cloning cylinders acquired from car Te'o and also launched new warship of venator class with fresh troops warships and new technology the Republic launched a massive counter-offensive pushing the CIS out of the Corps and into the mid and outer rooms of the galaxy thus began the outer rim sieges [Music] realizing the errors of his ways and after disappointing Dooku on honniger Quinlan vos was hunted by Dooku and with help from obi-wan Kenobi he was rien doctrine aided into the order and his first assignment back with leading troops on Fela Kuti the Battle of sila Kumi would

the 5th leaders by surprise and all those human grievance managed to escape Ventress appear to be mortally wounded in the battle the Republic laid siege to the Citadel example believing that the techno Union Foreman wat Tambor resided inside though the Republic was victorious what tempore managed to escape Kenobi and Skywalker once again teamed up this time they took a small force of clones to adult count to the palace on room to hopefully capture the Confederate leader they were in over their heads however Andrew was a defeat two years and 11 months after Geonosis the duo along with Commander Cody assaulted the muy dia system the last CIS Bastion in the core world and the world of Cato Neimoidia dekho pneumonia and chloro no idea soon fell for the Republic it was at this time

would lead to vélodrome Kenobi and Skywalker x' open circle sleep lay in wait above the planet and after a short engagement Grievous and the fehb leaders managed to jump to hyperspace after mopping up CIS ground forces on a planet with the shield and city Kenobi and Skywalker were tasked by Palpatine to check out a planet called Melvin where General Grievous was supposedly seen traveling to and from Grievous was nowhere to be found but Anakin did manage to destroy a techno Union research lab experimenting on the native nelvana's freeing them and was at this moment three years after the Battle of Geonosis that General Grievous made his most audacious move yet and seized the Republic capital of Khorasan but the space and ground followed the ruse to capture Palpatine however he was thwarted by Kenobi and Skywalker who joined the battle as soon as they could with the Chancellor safe and Count Dooku dead Yoda literally forced to the recently invaded Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk
