Battle between a Republic and Separatist fleet
Canon Linked from 3 articles
During the Outer Rim Sieges of the Clone Wars, a battle broke out in space between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems in 19 BBY. The battle occurred following the outbreak of a massive offense across the Outer Rim Territories by the Kaleesh Separatist Supreme Commander, General Grievous, which led to the sieges.
During the battle, a Separatist fleet of at least six Providence-class Dreadnoughts under Grievous's command engaged a Republic fleet of at least six Venator-class Star Destroyers. As Grievous watched from one of the Providence's bridge, which was crewed by several B1-series battle droids, Separatist droid tri-fighters and Clone Z-95 Headhunters engaged one another in dogfights around the capital ships, while at least two of the dreadnoughts sustained extensive damage to their hulls.
