Imperial Reunification

The Imperial Reunification was the final act of the Imperial Civil War. It resulted in the consolidation of the Imperial Army and Navy, and eventually the foundation of the modern Imperial Remnant.

Events Leading To Reunification
Following the death of Palpatine during the Battle of Endor, the Galactic Empire had slowly begun to dissolve, as numerous leaders worked to secure their own power, resulting the the creation of numerous fiefdoms. The turning point in this collapse is largely attributed to Ysanne Isard's defeat. With the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Empire enjoyed a brief period of unity, which ended after the Battle of Bilbringi.

The Empire was again united when the ressurected Palpatine reemerged, but this, too, was eventually put down.

In 11 ABY, Admiral Daala was forced to retreat to the Deep Core, one of the last remaining Imperial holdings. Pressed into the service of Warlord Harrsk, she was deeply disturbed by the squabbling between the remaining commanders, who were vying for what little power remained.

Placed in command of Harrsk's fleet, Daala made contact with Vice Admiral Gilad Pellaeon, Thrawn's protege, who was similarly dissatisfied with the state of the once grand Empire.

The Conference at Tsoss Beacon
''"I didn't want to rule. I had no intention of becoming a political leader. …but you have given me no choice. I cannot leave the Empire in the hands of fools like you." '' --Admiral Daala at Tsoss Beacon

Daala and Pellaeon established a meeting place on the Deep Core world of Tsoss Beacon. Hoping to convince the Warlords to cease their petty rivalries for the good of the Empire, the two convened a confernce of the thirteen most powerful warlords. Among those in attendance were Harrsk, Teradoc, and Delvardus.

Unfortunatly, it quickly became clear that there would be no cooperation. Disgusted at the behavior of the supposed leaders, Daala and Pellaeon executed them all with nerve gas.

Daala's Reforms
With the death of the Warlords, Daala became the Supreme Commander of the Imperial fleet. Amassing a huge fighting force of millions of troops, 45 Imperial-Class Star Destroyers, 112 Victory-Class Destroyers, and one Executor-Class Super Star Destroyer, the Knight Hammer, Daala's battle group quickly and quietly prepared for a brutal assault on the New Republic.

In addition to military consolidation, Daala removed many of the restrictions on women and aliens that had run rampant. For the first time, Women and non-humans made up a large part of the Imperial war machine. This boosted moral and earned daala the respect and loyaly of many imperials.

Aftermath
Although Daala eventually turned command over to Pellaeon, the events she set in motion would pave the way to the formation of the [[Imperial Remnant, whcih would continue plaguing the Republic for more than a decade.
