Occupation of Kashyyyk

During its reign of the galaxy, the Galactic Empire conquered and brutally carried out an occupation of Kashyyyk, the homeworld of the Wookiees, who were enslaved and used as laborers. The occupation was resisted by the Wookiees with repeated uprisings, but resulted in vicious retaliation by the Empire. Near the onset of the Galactic Civil War, a mission was sanctioned by Rebel Alliance leaders to reinforce the resistance fighters, dealing a heavy blow to Imperial leadership and ending a threat which plagued both sides. Though a large Imperial force remained on Kashyyyk after the Battle of Endor, the occupation of Kashyyyk was ultimately ended in 5 ABY when it was liberated by the New Republic.
