The Separatists Could Never Win the Clone Wars

The Clone Wars was devastating for many and caused three years of non-stop fighting throughout the galaxy. However, it was a losing battle from the start, as the Republic outnumbered the Separatists' worlds by a huge amount.

Separatist worlds believed that the Republic's corruption left it damaged beyond repair and that a new government was needed. In truth, the Separatists were led by both the Sith and a cabal of the galaxy's most unethical corporations, making the CIS far more corrupt than the Republic.

Sidious then issued Order 66 to his clone army. On planets across the galaxy, clone troopers turned their guns on their Jedi commanders, decimating the Order. Sidious sent Skywalker to Mustafar, where he slaughtered the members of the Separatist Council. The Separatist Alliance was defeated and the war was over.

The Confederacy of Independent Systems (also known as the CIS or Separatists) was an organization that appeared in the Star Wars movies. The CIS was led by the fallen Jedi Count Dooku. The armies of the Separatists had thousands of battle droids.

Palpatine never intended a victory for either side, after the Jedi figured out that he was the Sith puppet master and gave him an excuse to declare Order 66, the war was over with Sidious the only victor.

Palpatine himself headed both the Galactic Republic and, secretly, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which allowed him to prolong the conflict in order to gain more executive powers from the Senate.

❔ [Lore] Were the Separatists really all that bad? They were just rebelling against a government they deemed to be subpar (which it was) and they were fighting it.

The Confederacy won many battles in the ensuing war but was dissolved when they were betrayed by Sidious, who had the Separatist Council leaders massacred by his apprentice Darth Vader on Mustafar, allowing Sidious to reform the Republic into the Galactic Empire.

In 20 BBY, bounty hunter Moralo Eval, at the time under the employment of Confederacy of Independent Systems Head of State and Sith Lord Count Dooku came up with a plan to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine to strike a decisive blow against the Galactic Republic.

What happened to the Separatists after the clone wars? Darth Vader killed all of the main Separatist leaders on Mustafar, effectively ending any major resistance to Imperial rule. There were documented Separatist holdouts on various planets that were still active, and there were cases of droids refusing to shut down.

Did any of the Jedi Council survive Order 66? ›

Tholme died at some point and had a funeral pyre on Anzat. Beyghor Sahdett slaughtered the clones that attacked him, and a female Jedi was able to hide from her clones. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and Shaak Ti were the only High Council members to survive the initial purge.

Indeed he did. Dooku (aka Darth Tyrannus) knew his master's identity. At this point the Jedi thought Dooku was the Sith Master. The kidnapping was planned to reinforce public support for Palpatine while further confusing the Jedi about his true identity.

Separatist, any of the English Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries who wished to separate from the perceived corruption of the Church of England and form independent local churches.

Puritans were English Calvinists who sought to reform, or purify, the Church of England. Separatists were English Calvinists who sought to separate from the Church of England, which they felt was beyond reform.

A large portion of the cost of the Second Death Star was mapping out a route in an unmapped region. Separatists being allowed to leave would mean mapping potentially dozens of routes with the organization that had been maintaining them as an enemy for the Republic.

The definition of a separatist is someone who secedes or supports separation from an established group, such as a church or nation. Separatists want autonomy - they want to govern or control themselves, be independent, and make their own decisions. This is true of religious or political separatists.

Since Count Dooku's goal even as a Jedi was for the galaxy to “start over,” the Separatists would ensure that the Republic itself is dissolved, making them the dominant power in the galaxy.

These "diehard" Separatists were, however, more fanatical than other rebels and had a higher degree of willingness to undertake radical measures against the Empire than the politically astute leaders of the central resistance are restful for.

Though a significant amount of time after the First and Second Battles on Ryloth, the Separatists still committed war crimes on the planet, specifically regarding a set of civilians they had taken hostage in one of their mountain bases.
