During the Second Great Galactic War, the isolated planet of Ilum became a major flashpoint in the conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. After the Sith seized the world during the Great Galactic War, the Empire fortified its defenses there and undertook a mysterious project to exploit Ilum's natural resources, specifically Adegan crystals, which Imperial scientists could use to create an invincible stealth armada.

Seeing the Sith's aims as a threat, the Republic and the Jedi Order began efforts during the Cold War to re-secure the planet that once served as a sanctuary for the Order's members. They would not move on the planet, however, until the later days of the Cold War and the beginning of the Second Great Galactic War, when Darth Malgus declared his splinter Empire.
