| - The Fourth Republic was, within weeks of its founding, the target of a string of terrorist attacks. The majority of them were in fact plotted by the Sith Lord Darth Wirlokk in an attempt to destabilize the fledgling government. However, most of the attacks were thwarted, and the Republic only emerged stronger from these early trials. A few months into the Republic's life, it formed the Omni Alliance with the Empire of that era. However, the Emperor himself betrayed both Republic and Empire to Darth Wirlokk, and nearly allowed the CIUS invasion of Omni Alliance territory. Luckily, Omega/Zaroc Blacket kept the CIUS forces occupied long enough for several key Republic and Imperial Admirals to prepare a defense. The Republic emerged victorious from the Battle of New Alderaan, and the Confederacy-Republic War began. Within a month of the outbreak of war, the Empire had been absorbed into the Republic, strengthening it greatly. Furthermore, the Confederacy-Republic War ended in 4130 with a Republic fleet nearly destroying the CIUS's capital. The Republic's reputation grew considerably from the war, and the CIUS lost face after having nearly been annihilated by a two-year-old nation. Throughout 4130, the Republic's territory grew as systems left the CIUS and joined the more reputable Republic. By the end of the year the Republic was the undisputed superpower, controlling fully 3/5 of the galaxy.
