The Rebellion

The Rebellion

The Rebel Alliance does not begin as one unified military. Senators, intelligence networks, local insurgencies, pilots, workers, defectors, smugglers, families, and occupied communities gradually create a coalition capable of fighting the Empire and imagining a successor government. This hub follows the Rebellion from clandestine networks to open fleet warfare and political transition.
