The Battle of Kothlis was a battle in the Dark Order War between the Imperial Remnant forces under the Dark Order of Korr, and the New Republic for control of Kothlis. Dark Order General Persia had begun an incursion into Bothan Space. Previously captured reconnaissance information had revealed that the New Republic had moved most of its defending fleets further toward the Core Worlds, in order to eliminate remaining Imperial Remnant forces that had been raiding the Republic's infrastructure. As a result, many Republic planets in the Outer Rim Territories were left vulnerable. Using this information to his advantage, Persia took a fleet to Krant and captured the planet. It was then used as a staging ground, where Persia reinforced his initial fleet in order to continue the offensive. Becau
