The Sith Empire / SITHS

In the aftermath of the Great Hyperspace War of 5000 BBY, survivors of the original Sith Empire established a new Sith Empire in the galaxy’s Unknown Regions. This Empire, also known as the “True Sith” sect, was led by Darth Vitiate, a surviving Sith Lord of the old Sith Empire. The refugees wandered aimlessly through space in search of a new home. Twenty years after their departure from the original Empire’s territory, the Sith discovered the forgotten world of Dromund Kaas and settled it to begin the process of rebuilding. It was this Sith Empire which offered the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders their new crusade against their common foe resulting to the Mandalorian Wars.

During the war, Revan discovered and was turned by the Emperor before invading the Republic at the head of his own Sith Empire. Around three hundred years after the Jedi Civil War, the Sith Empire—still under *the command of the Emperor, his life extended through Sith sorcery—invaded the Republic, sparking the Great Galactic War. In 3653 BBY, the Treaty of Coruscant ended the Great Galactic War, giving way to the Cold War, the galaxy divided between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic.
