Siege of Syst

The Siege of Syst was a battle in the Jedi Wars, considered to be part of the Systian Rebellion, as the Jedi, in part of the war, helped the Syst gained independence from the Sith by ousting them from the planet in the successive battle. It was the first battle since 366 SIE in the war, due to a stalemate. Jarn Durandu also made his return to the war effort in this battle.

While they were preoccupied with bolstering their large fleet near Korriban, the Sith were relatively unconcerned with the many planets controlled by their empire. The Jedi saw this as an opportunity to both inflict a grievous strike to the Sith and liberate the oppressed species. The Siege of Syst was the first of two later battles, the second being the liberation of Styaros VI, which essentially liberated the Syst and Stymphogian races from Sith dominance. Both races later signed a treaty with the Jedi and partook in the final battle of the war on Destudii.
