The Ylesian Republic was the authority established on Ylesia after it was granted to the Peace Brigade by the Praetorite Vong, following the capture of Ylesia, the Ylesian Republic had nominal independence but the Yuuzhan Vong exercised a great deal of influence and it was effectively a collaborationist government. It was led by a President, and governed by a Senate.[1]
History[]
- "I'm not willing to speculate why the Peace Brigade and their ilk chose to work with the invaders. Maybe some are simply cowards, maybe some were bought, maybe some were given no choice. I suppose most of them are opportunists who think they're on the winning side. But I know this -- up until now there's been no real penalty for being willing to betray the New Republic and work with the invaders. I propose we inflict a penalty. I propose that we strike the Peace Brigade right in the center of their power. I say we raid Ylesia, their capital, destroy the collaborationist government, and show everyone in the galaxy that there is a penalty for collaboration with the Yuuzhan Vong, and that the penalty is a dire one."
