During the Clone Wars,[3] in 21 BBY,[4] a battle took place near[3] the planet[7] Dorin between Galactic Republic starfighter squadrons led by Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano, and Confederacy of Independent Systems military units[3] commanded by the Kaleesh Separatist Supreme Commander, General Grievous.[5] As a result, the Republic starfighter squadrons were able to rout Grievous's forces,[3] which in turn led to the loss of at least 131 Separatist units.[6] Following their successes at Dorin, Skywalker and his Padawan arrived at the[3] planet[8] Geonosis in order to participate in the Republic's second invasion of the world.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
