Battle of Naboo

"The situation here is not what it seems. There is something else behind all this, Your Highness. There is no logic in the Federation's move here. My feelings tell me they will destroy you."

- Qui-Gon Jinn

The Invasion of Naboo, also known as the Battle of Naboo, Battle for Naboo, or simply the Naboo Crisis, was a significant galactic conflict that occurred on the planet Naboo in 32 BBY, where the planet's capital city, Theed, and surrounding regions were invaded and occupied by the battle droid forces of the Trade Federation.

The crisis would end with the capture of Viceroy Nute Gunray and the destruction of the main droid control ship. The dire conflict would lead to Senator Palpatine of Naboo taking the seat of Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Senate and rising tensions ultimately leading into the Clone Wars. The events of the Naboo Crisis are often depicted as a prelude to those of the Separatist Crisis.

The parents of Dax Olesa were killed in this battle.
