Sith Empire (Jedi Civil War)

The Sith Empire was an Empire founded by Dark Jedis Revan and Malak in 3,959 BBY. Its purpose was to conquer the Galactic Republic in order to better prepare it for an invasion by the true Sith Empire.

The Empire had a large army, comprised mostly of rebel Jedi and former Republic forces. Military vehicles, such as starships, were created by the Star Forge.

The Empire was very successful in its purpose until Revan was betrayed by Malak. After this Revan sided with the Republic, and killed Malak during the Battle of the Star Forge, ending both the Sith Empire and the Star Forge.

After Malak's death, several factions attempted to seize power of the Empire, resulting in several minor civil wars on many planets, but none of these succeeded.
