Battle of Trasemene

A battle was fought in 19 BBY during the Sy Myrthian Insurrection, at the world of Trasemene, between an Imperial task force made up of the 12th Sector Army, and a Separatist holdout fleet under the command of the Sy Myrthian Toonbuck Toora with her flagship, Defiance's Banner. During the battle, Imperial forces under the command of Admiral Adar Tallon and General Jan Dodonna triumphed after the Praetor-class Star Battlecruiser Battalion ripped apart the Separatist holdout fleet with its batteries.
==Prelude==
After the Clone Wars ended in a Confederate defeat in 19 BBY, Sy Myrthian ex-Senator Toonbuck Toora managed to gather an army of former Confederate forces and continued to fight on against the victorious Galactic Republic. That led to the Sy Myrthian Insurrection, when the Galactic Empire, the successor of the Republic, strove to destroy Toora's Separatist holdout army in the planet Sy Myrth's vicinity. After consecutive Imperial victories at the worlds of Diado and Metalorn, and later the siege of Sy Myrth itself, an Imperial task force of the 12th Sector Army under the command of Admiral Adar Tallon and General Jan Dodonna, led by the Praetor-class Star Battlecruiser Battalion, chased down Toora's flagship, Defiance's Banner.
==The battle==
After Toora's fleet was cornered at the planet Trasemene, the Battalion batteries ripped apart her fleet, resulting in an Imperial victory. Toora was killed during the battle.
==Aftermath==
The action at Trasemene ended the Sy Myrthian Insurrection, though Confederate followers still harassed the Empire from the Kreetan Narrows region in Hutt Space, which later led to the northern Hutt territories being annexed by the Imperials. Dodonna later won honors for his role in defeating Toora's resistance.
==Behind the scenes==
The battle was first mentioned in The Essential Guide to Warfare, an extensive guide dedicated to the conflicts in the galaxy, written by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart, and released in 2012.
