22 BBY

The following events took place in the year 22 BBY,Star Wars: Galactic Atlas also known as 3255 LY according to the Lothal Calendar and year 7955 in the C.R.C. calendar.
==Events==
*The Antar 4 schism occurs over whether to support the Galactic Republic or the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
*A border dispute occurs on Ansion.
*Zam Wesell and Jango Fett attempt to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala on Coruscant.
*The Separatist Crisis ends and the Clone Wars begin with the First Battle of Geonosis.
*Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala are married in a secret ceremony on Naboo.
*Anakin Skywalker is promoted to Jedi Knight.
*Concurrent to the early period of the Clone Wars, RA-7 protocol droids are created with plating from the 3PO-series protocol droid. One of the droids made during this time is 4-A7, establishes that RA-7 protocol droids that shared much of their plating with the 3PO-series protocol droid were created early in the Clone Wars. Because the issue also says 4-A7 had a full body of 3PO plating, he must have been created early in the war. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the start of the Clone Wars to the year 22 BBY. The Star Wars: The Clone Wars film shows that 4-A7's death was part of the Battle of Teth. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places the Battle of Christophsis and the Mission to Rodia to 22 BBY. Since the Battle of Teth takes place between the Battle of Christophsis and the Mission to Rodia, the events of the battle, including 4-A7's death, must have also taken place in the same year. Given that 4-A7 was created after the start of the war and died in 22 BBY, he must have been created in that year as well. who is actually assembled by Separatist allies within Arakyd Industries.
*The Battle of Muunilinst occurs; the Republic defeats the Separatist stronghold. However the victory comes at great cost: Muun cities were heavily damaged in the battle, and the engagement will lead the galaxy to face a financial crisis.
*Jedi General Tholme leads his forces in a major battle against Asajj Ventress and her battle droids. Ventress wins the day and murders Tholme.Dark DiscipleThe battle between Tholme and Asajj Ventress seen in Dark Disciple occurs during the Clone Wars, meaning the battle takes place some time after the First Battle of Geonosis seen in Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones, which the Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 22 BBY. Furthermore, establishes that the engagement was fought before the Battle of Christophsis, which is also dated to 22 BBY by Galactic Atlas. Therefore, the battle between Tholme and Ventress, including Tholme's death, must take place in 22 BBY.
*Mace Windu and his Jedi squad battles with the Separatists and the hired droid mercenary AD-W4 over the planet Hissrich.Jedi of the Republic – Mace Windu 1
*Anakin Skywalker destroys Admiral Trench's flagship above the Battle of Christophsis and delivers needed supplies to senator Bail Organa on the ground.

Star Wars: Battles that Changed the Galaxy notes that the Onderonian Civil War followed a Separatist invasion, and Star Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide establishes that the Civil War began twenty-two years before the Battle of Scarif, which occurred in 0 BBY according to Galactic Atlas. Therefore, the Civil War began in 22 BBY. As the invasion occurs between the First Battle of Geonosis and the Civil War, it must also take place in 22 BBY.

*Hadder Ponta on Skuhl.Star Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide states that Jyn Erso was eight years old in 13 BBY. When Erso is sixteen in Rebel Rising, Hadder Ponta states that Tanith Ponta died a decade prior, when he was seven. Using simple math, it can be deduced that Hadder Ponta was born on Skuhl in 22 BBY.
*Vah'nyaThrawn: Treason states that Vah'nya is twenty-two years old. The events of Thrawn: Treason take place shortly after "Rebel Assault" and before "Family Reunion – and Farewell." The epilogue of "Family Reunion – and Farewell" occurs after the end of the Galactic Civil War, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 5 ABY, meaning the epilogue must take place during or after that year. "A World Between Worlds" occurs prior to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which Galactic Atlas dates to 0 BBY, so it must take place during or prior to that year. Star Wars: Women of the Galaxy establishes that five years pass between when Ahsoka Tano is saved by Ezra Bridger in "A World Between Worlds" and when she returns to Lothal in the epilogue of "Family Reunion – and Farewell". Therefore, "A World Between Worlds" must be set in 0 BBY. Because "Rebel Assault" is set in the days directly preceding "A World Between Worlds", Thrawn: Treason must also take place in 0 BBY. It can then be calculated that Vah'nya was born in 22 BBY.
*Xea on Eriadu.As stated in TK-462, Xea died at the age of eight, in the same year that Wilhuff Tarkin was promoted to Grand Moff. According to the novel Tarkin, this occurred 14 years before the Battle of Yavin. Through simple math, it can be concluded that she was born 22 years before Yavin.
