Imperial Outland Federation

The Imperial Outland Federation was an Imperial splinter state formed in 4 ABY that operated in the Mandalore sector. The Federation's capital was based on Gargon and was initially controlled by former Grand Admiral Josef Grunger, though after his death in 5 ABY the Federation fell under the control of the Imperial Outland Federal Council, whose members each held the rank of Moff. The Federation's military, still referred to by its personnel as the Imperial Military (though this force was no longer part of the same command structure as thousands of other Imperial armies and fleets operating across the galaxy), was deployed onto Mandalore and its moon Concordia to continue the Imperials' mission of conquering the Mandalorians. This would not work out as planned, however, as the Federation's stormtrooper units began seeing heavy casualties. Despite this, Imperial holdouts remained active in the Mandalore system and on other worlds such as Concord Dawn and Draboon, which became a target of raiding by Supercommandos and members of the Mandalorian Protectors. The Federation collapsed and its military once again dissolved into independent holdouts that were gradually wiped out by Mandalorian raids. The Imperials would not remain absent in the sector for too long, however, as forces of Zsinj's Imperial remnant soon landed on Mandalore, Concordia, and Concord Dawn, once more plunging the Mandalorians into war with the Mandalorians.
