The **Mandalorian Civil War** broke out on Mandalore in the year 2 BBY, during the uprising of Clan Wren against the Imperial-backed government of Mandalore, as well as Clan Ordo's escape from the Battle of Dxun following their successful search for Mandalore's Mask. The War began when Governor Gar Saxon and his Imperial Super Commandos attempted to apprehend the rebels Sabine Wren, Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus and Jedi Padawan Ezra Bridger for their rebellion against the Empire. He also attempted to eliminate the marginalized Clan Wren, which had been tainted by association with Sabine and her friends. The ensuring skirmish at the Wren Stronghold on Krownest saw Governor Saxon's death at the hands of Sabine's mother, Countess Ursa Wren, and the uprising of Clan Wren.

After surviving their fight with the Empire, Count Raman Sohl and Clan Ordo allied themselves with Clan Wren to combat against Clans Saxon and Gedyc, the ruling clans of Mandalore. Despite the combined forces at their disposal, the Mandalorian resistance barely managed to maintain any captured territory due to the significant Imperial support to Clans Saxon and Gedyc. The aftermath of the Battle of Atollon saw the Mandalorian resistance receive help from Clan Kryze, the Nightsister Merrin, and various Jedi including Jarrus, Bridger, Jedi Master Jarik Shan, his adoptive daughter Mara Jade, and Jedi Knight Cal Kestis for a mission to save Sabine’s father Alrich. Nevertheless, Saxon's younger brother, Governor Tiber Saxon, rebuilt the *Duchess*, a superweapon Sabine constructed during her time as a cadet at the Imperial Academy of Mandalore, and tested it on Clans Wren and Ordo.

After destroying the *Duchess*, Sabine and Count Sohl passed on the Darksaber and Mandalore's Mask to Lady Bo-Katan Kryze, who became the next Mand'alor. Shan, meanwhile, was designated as the first Mandalorian Jedi since Tarre Vizsla, and brought the ancient conflict between the Mandalorian people and his family to a close in restoring Clan Ordo's honor and returning Mandalore’s Mask to its people.
