Neo-Imperial Organization

The Neo-Imperial Organization was a pro- group that formed soon after the shattered the Galactic Empire. It was comprised mainly of former well-off Imperial citizens and leaders in the at first, but would gain more of a following in later years as the Gray War began and it received funding from the. Its main rhetorical tactic would be pointing out the organizational, political and logistical failures of the as is struggled to establish itself. It was primarily a terrorist and insurgent organization, and would be directly responsible for the Second Battle of Coruscant and the Battle of New Alderaan.

Founding
Immediately after the Battle of Endor, there was a power vacuum in the Galaxy, and several factions formed in the remains of the Empire. Many of the smaller factions were soon swept up into the New Republic as it took the Galaxy and established its government. Alliances between factions became common, joining together to fight the forces of the Republic even as they claimed to be the heirs to the Imperial throne.

One of these alliances was led by the former grand moff Jarnas Velorax, who would rename his title to Imperial Consul in the wake of Endor. This alliance was defeated by the Republic in 6 ABY, but Velorax was able to negotiate a conditional surrender, which would allow him and his colleagues to continue life as normal citizens. These men would flee to Naboo, where they would form the Neo-Imperial Organization, planning to use insurgent tactics against the New Republic themselves, as the Rebel Alliance had done successfully against the Empire.

The Bombing of Theed
The organization was based on Nabbo, and would draw most of its support from this planet at first. by 8 ABY, the organization had swelled to about 20,000 members. One of the cells, based in the planetary capital of, became among the first to commit a major terrorist strike against the New Republic, though there had been several minor threats and bomb scares in the years prior.

A landspeeder with a droid driver, armed with a proton torpedo acquired from the black market, parked in front of the in the middle of the night. The next day, at peak tourist hours, the torpedo was remotely detonated, completely destroying the Royal Palace and damaging much of the city around it. The Theed Neo-Imperial cell would claim responsibility for the attack just an hour later.

Velorax denied all responsibility for the attack. In fact, he was extremely displeased with the cell, believing the attack would only damage the cause of the organization. He would have the perpetrators of the attack privately executed for incompetence a couple of days later.
