The Battle of Tibrin of 22 BBY was a failed Galactic Republic attempt to oust the Confederacy of Independent Systems' military presence from the planet Tibrin during the Clone Wars. The native Ishi Tib populace had previously welcomed the arrival of Separatist leader Count Dooku and his cadre of Dark Acolytes, who executed Suribran Tu&mdash;the planet's unpopular, pro-Republic premier&mdash;and overthrew his totalitarian regime. Consequently, the Ishi Tib aided the Confederacy when Jedi and clone troopers from the Grand Army of the Republic came to retake Tibrin. The result was a catastrophic Republic defeat, with Tibrin retaining its Separatist ties. Many of the clone soldiers who survived the battle, including Commander Gree of the 41st Elite Corps, adopted a hairstyle called the double stripe to honor their fallen comrades.
