[edit] Background

Fearing the Galactic Republic's rule was becoming more and more absolute, the planet Acherin joined the Separatist cause early on.

[edit] The battle

The battle raged until the very end of the war, when the Acherin Separatist commanders began ceasefire-negotiations with the Jedi General Garen Muln.

Progress was going well, until Supreme Chancellor Palpatine issued Order 66, marking Muln as a traitor to the Republic. When the clone troopers came for him, commanders Raina Quill and Toma helped Garen Muln flee Acherin in secret.

[edit] Aftermath

Realizing the threat of the new Galactic Empire, the people of Acherin began a resistance movement, and would fight in yet another battle, that lasted almost a year.
