During the Clone Wars, New Mandalorian Prime Minister Almec initiated a conspiracy to use the black market to smuggle supplies onto Mandalore.[2]
Background[]
When the Clone Wars broke out, the New Mandalorian Government declared that their world, the Outer Rim world Mandalore, would remain neutral.[6] Under the leadership of Duchess Satine Kryze, Mandalore became the leader of the Council of Neutral Systems.[2] Unfortunately, Mandalore's neutrality left it isolated from both the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy. Prime Minister Almec and several of members of Mandalore's secret service contacted smugglers and established a black market.[7]
Activities[]
Tea smuggling[]
Several Moogans under Tee Va bribed a Customs official to import tea. They then diluted the tea with slabin to increase their profits. The Moogans sold the tea to Siddiq's shipping company, who bribe Sundari's school superintendent to allow the tea to be served to the children. Unfortunately, the tea's slabin caused an outbreak among the school's students. Duchess Satine and Senator Padmé Amidala investigated the outbreak. Together, they were able to convince Mandalorian Guard Captain Patrok Ru-Saxon to aid them in shutting down the Moogans' operations. After firefight, the Moogans and their compatriots were arrested and the tea was destroyed.[2]

- ↑ Star Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide states that the Onderonian Civil War began 22 years before the Rogue One mission. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Rogue One mission to 0 BBY. Therefore, the Onderonian Civil War began in 22 BBY, while its end, depicted in "Tipping Points," must occur in 20 BBY; Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of "Water War" to 20 BBY, while Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle! dates the events of "The Gathering" to be 20 years before the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 20 BBY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. As Star Wars: The Clone Wars Chronological Episode Order on StarWars.com (backup link) establishes that the events of "Tipping Points," and therefore the end of the Onderonian Civil War, occurred between the events of "Water War" and "The Gathering," the war must have ended in 20 BBY.
