New Republic

The New Republic, originally the Rebel Alliance, is one of the most power factions within the galaxy. Created from the Rebel Alliance after the end of the Fallen War, the New Republic established the galactic government that was around before the formation of the Galactic Empire. Composed of territories lost by the Empire during the Galactic Rebellion and Fallen War, the New Republic continues to strive for galactic peace, though it is not afraid to use force.

Origins
The New Republic first began as the Rebel Alliance, a band of like-minded individuals spread throughout the galaxy that oppossed the Galactic Empire. Eventually, the Alliance gathered enough strength to go head to head with the Empire, beginning the Galactic Rebellion. At first the Empire won several battles during the rebellion. As the years passed, the Alliance eventually began to push the Empire back, gaining more support from defecting star systems.

When the Fallen War broke out, ending the Galactic Rebellion, the Rebel Alliance was quickly pushed back and lost several planets they had held for years. Nearing complete collapse, the Alliance offered a peace treaty to the Empire in exchange for forming an alliance to fight Fallen. The Empire agreed and the two factions eventually won the war.

Formation
After the Fallen War, the Rebel Alliance was more financial stable than the Empire. Honoring the peace treaty, the Alliance focused its attentions on rebuilding its devastated planets and the creation of a stronger government. In 17 BA, the Alliance officially became the New Republic.
