The War on Corellia was a civil war that took place in the wake of the Nihil infiltration of the planet Corellia.[1] Following the destruction of Starlight Beacon, the Nihil took root on the planet, and a contingent of Corellians believed the only way to prevent the planet from sharing the same fate as Starlight Beacon was to embrace the Nihil's rule. They were opposed by Corellians such as Alys "Crash" Ongwa and Svi'no Atchapat. Two Jedi—Jedi Master Conithr and her Padawan, Ruu—chose to not to return to Coruscant after the Jedi Order recalled the Jedi there, instead choosing to remain on Corellia to defend the Corellians from the Nihil. During one incident, Conithr was killed, causing Ruu to fall to the dark side of the Force and stop operating as a Jedi.[2]
A massacre of Nihil forces occurred at the Greens[3] and marked the effective end to any major Nihil operation on Corellia.[4]
