Devastation of Gibad

"We understand that the surrender deadline has now passed, with no undertaking from the Gibadan government. The Emperor has now authorized the use of force to restore order."

- A news reporter

The Devastation of Gibad occurred in 19 BBY. When the planet Gibad refused to cooperate after the Galactic Empire's given deadline, Emperor Palpatine ordered to unleashed on the world the FG36 virus, created by Separatist scientist Ovolot Qail Uthan, who was a native of the planet. As all the galaxy watched the destruction of the Human population of the planet, the Empire released a statement saying that the world would be ready for re-population within the year.
