Capture of the Colonies

The Capture of the Colonies was a campaign during the Triumvirate Civil War. Lasting several months, from late 253 ABY to early 254 ABY, the campaign saw the capture of the Colonies by the Dark Empire. The Alliance of Free Worlds took heavy casualties, which caused the poor defenses of the Core Worlds to fall fairly quickly to Imperial forces in the subsequent Capture of the Core campaign, culminating with the Imperial victory at Coruscant.
