Sith Uprising

The Sith Uprising was a several month civil uprising brought about by the Council of Kissai's attempted assassination of political activist and war veteran Rhea.

In the years prior to the birth of the Sith League, the Faith of Typhojem and its ruling council, the Council of Kissai,had exercised absolute control over Sith culture. With the signing of the Charter of the Sith League and the annexation of, the Council continued its casual dominance of the Sith, ruling through the Charter's vague and imprecise terms.

With the losses suffered in the Invasion of Felucia and War for Ossus, public support for the Council waned, as its judgment was called into question by activists like Rhea, a human/Sith mixedblood veteran of two wars with a significant public following.

Threatened by her calls for clear terms of governance, the the Council attempted a botched assassination attempt, with led to Rhea's infamous speech on the steps of their residence, the Temple of Typhojem Chirikyât in. The resulting uprising across the League continued until the Council agree to hold talks and draft the more precise Constitution of the Sith League. Rhea was grudgingly elected Tsis'ari or "queen" by the Council in an attempt to appease the masses.
