Coruscant Insurrection

The First Battle of Coruscant, sometimes referred to as the Invasion of Coruscant or the Coruscant Insurrection, was a battle in the Clone Wars that took place in 21 BBY.

Count Dooku and one of his Dark Acolytes, Trenox, infiltrated Coruscant with a small force in a mission to destroy the Jedi Archives in the Jedi Temple. Anakin Skywalker confronted and killed Trenox within the Temple, but was delayed long enough for Dooku to steal at least one Holocron and escape.

General Obi-Wan Kenobi was wounded by Dooku during the battle. A trooper called Rom Mohc fought the droids in personal combat and was later touted as a hero all over the HoloNet.

This battle, coupled with the Sarapin blackout, meant Coruscant's citizens no longer felt safe from the war's ravages.
