Battle of Giju

The Battle of Giju was a brief conflict fought on Giju shortly after the establishment of the Galactic Empire.
==The battle==
The Empire desired to nationalize the industry and infrastructure on Giju and subjugated the planet. This spurred a short, but violent revolt by the native Herglic, which was only ended after horrific massacres forced the Herglic to reconsider their resistance. They submitted completely to the Empire.
==Aftermath==
Because Giju surrendered so rapidly, much of the infrastructure remained intact throughout the Imperial Period and the Herglic become loyal Imperial workers. This lead to a rapid economic recovery for the Herglic after Imperial forces fled the sector.
