Battle of Farstine

A battle took place in 19 BBY between the Galactic Empire and the resisting portions of the company known as the Trade Federation, under the command of Customs Vizier Marath Vooro, at the planet Farstine. The battle was part of the Five Veils Campaign, an Imperial campaign launched against members of the Trade Federation who refused to acknowledge the treaty signed by Neimoidian Federation Viceroy Sentepeth Findos giving the Empire control of the Federation's resources. During the battle, Imperial Grand Moff Octavian Grant and his fleet smashed Vooro's forces, which consisted of Trade Federation Defense Fleet units and battle droids. The Imperial victory at Farstine was followed by Grant capturing Vooro in the Outer Rim's Hook Nebula.
