New Separatist Confederacy

The New Separatist Confederacy, formed in 172 ABY using the same ideals as the Confederacy of Independent Systems. It is led by a group of powerful corporations and businessmen who don't want to pay the excessive taxes under the Alliance. Many Alliance worlds join the Separatists.

The first Separatist President is Valentin Sator, Julian Sator's father.

The invason is successful and the royal guard, marking the battle a Separatist victory.

Battle of Kashyyyk
The Separatist Confederacy attacks Kashyyyk several weeks after annexing Naboo. The Separatist army is led by a cyborg general, the dreaded Sith Saliceran, a young Sith named Shazane Relin, Kraujas Nalju, Tyrro Kasari and Atrocither. The NSC commits mass murder by killing every active Alliance stormtrooper on the planet. Admiral Bail Onasi is smoked out of his base and captured. He is imprisoned on Utapau.

Battle of Kuat
The Separatists attack Kuat with their recently built space station, the DS-4 battlestation. The NSC army, led by President Sator himself, Darth Atrocither and Tyrro Kasari is overwhelming the Alliance fleet, but the tide of the battle turns when Grandmaster Alix Zare Kiele, her padawan and Korso sabotage the separatist flagship despite Atrocither and Tyrro's efforts to stop them from doing so. The battle is concluded when the Grandmaster manages to destroy the fourth Death Star by using proton bombs after a long dogfight. President Sator is killed when the DS-4 blew up.

Tarkin's reforms
Howard Tarkin becomes the new President, bringing reforms to the Separatist Confederacy and changing it into the Galactic Confederation. However Julian Sator's brother Culverton protests and aligns many worlds against Tarkin. The planets against the Galactic Confederation re-create the New Separatist Confederacy.

New Confederacy of Independent Systems
The NSC merges with the Unified Nation sometime later, then with the Triumvirate, to form a massive faction called the New Confederacy of Independent Systems.
