Battle for Botajef

Canon Linked from 11 articles

A battle for Botajef occurred in 9 BBY, during the reign of the Galactic Empire. The battle was sparked by Governor Quesl's attempted secession of Botajef, which was a cover to steal the planet's valuable art collections for himself. Commodore Thrawn led the Imperial forces in the battle and exposed Governor Quesl's fraud. This ended the battle peacefully in the Empire's favor.
