- "We didn't anticipate the Outer Rim Sieges would last this long."
"That would be why they call it a siege, Anakin." - ―Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala
The Outer Rim Sieges (19 BBY) was a campaign in the third and final year of the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The campaign occurred when the Confederacy was pushed back to the spiral arms of the galaxy. Although the Republic continued to keep the pressure on the Separatists in these territories,[16] the sieges also encompassed when General Grievous,[1] the Supreme Commander of the Separatist Droid Army,[13] launched an offensive, pushing the Republic Military to the brink. In response to the assault, Jedi Generals were deployed to help the Grand Army of the Republic.[1]
The sieges continued to take place until the final days of the Clone Wars.[4] Battles that took place during the Sieges included the Battle of Anaxes,[2] Siege of Saleucami,[8] the Fourth Battle of Mygeeto,[9] the Battle of Felucia,[11] and the Battle of Yerbana.[1] Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker fought in the Outer Rim Sieges before being recalled for the Battle of Coruscant.[4]
