Blockade of Corellia

"If Corellia can be be brought to a heel, it sends the message that no single planet is bigger than the Alliance."

- Jacen Solo to Cal Omas

The Blockade of Corellia was a significant crisis that occurred on the during the Second Corellian Insurrection. Once talks between the Galactic Alliance and Corellia were going nowhere, Jacen Solo and Admiral Niathal proposed the blockade as a solution to the growing problem of Corellian terrorist attacks on the Galactic capital, Coruscant. Having no choice but to comply with this proposal, Chief Omas took action against Corellia.

Admiral Niathal took control of the operation while Colonel Jacen Solo along with Lieutenant Colonel Jaina Solo and Zekk commanded the Rogue Squadron. During the blockade Jaina refused to shoot at a Corellian freighter and as a result she was stripped of her rank while Jacen took the shot.

After the blockade of Corellia was established, the Alliance expanded it to the other four worlds in the Corellian system.

Later on Han Solo and Wedge Antilles joined the war as part of the Corellian military, Solo as an Admiral and Antilles still holding on to his rank of General. As a result of the Han's and Leia's participation in the Corellian Alliance, his own son, Jacen, ordered the Galactic Alliance Guard to track down and arrest them both.
