Middle of the War

During the middle of the war, the Imperial Remnant gained support from crime syndicates, this lead to a Sith Empire being formed during the war's Battle on Ilum.

This empire would take children from the crime syndicates and train them in the ways of the sith. They were equipped with blood-red sabers or, ceremonially, the sabers of Jedi they ended. This became a serious problem for the New Clone Republic, and eventually they defeated this empire when reaching the end of the war, where the period of tranquility would rest.
