"How? It looked like they were rolling right over us.''" "That's how." "''Whoa!"

In 20 BBY, the Resolution was dispatched to the planet Drongar to evacuate the Republic troops on the world.

Description
The Resolution was a Venator-class Star Destroyer that was active in the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars, a inter-galactic conflict between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Galactic Republic.

History
As a Venator-class Star Destroyer, the Resolution was manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards. In 20 BBY, the ship was sent to the Outer Rim planet Drongar where Republic and Confederate forces fought against each other to gain control of the bota fields on the world. Bota was a native plant of Drongar with substantial medicinal qualities. However, when the bota mutated during that year and became useless, the Republic decided to pull out of Drongar and the Resolution was tasked to escort the Republic forces on the planet back to the Core Worlds. After arriving over the planet, the Star Destroyer fought off the Confederate troops and was able to evacuate most of the Republic clone trooper forces, the medicinal personnel stationed there. Also, the Republic saved two metric tons of non-mutated bota. Afterwards, the Resolution jumped to hyperspace with its destination being the Core Worlds.

Behind the scenes
The Resolution appeared briefly in MedStar II: Jedi Healer, the second novel of the MedStar Duology. Published in 2004, Jedi Healer was written by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry. Four years later, the ship received an entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia.
