The Battle of N'zoth was the final battle of the Black Fleet Crisis, in which the New Republic implemented Operation Strong Hand against the Yevetha. In 16 ABY, the Yevetha had attacked and massacred all non-Yevethan colonies within the Koornacht Cluster during their Great Purge. Following a heated diplomatic offensive, the New Republic moved against the Dushkan League following the testimony by Purge survivor Plat Mallar and the beating of a captive Commodore Han Solo being released on HoloNet.
After a series of battles, the New Republic Fifth Battle Group arrived over the Dushkan capital N'zoth in 17 ABY and demanded their surrender and an end to all hostilities. Defiant to the last, Nil Spaar mustered a war fleet including the former Imperial vessels of the Black Fleet. However, the surviving Imperial captives led by Sil Sorannan's Camp Pa'aal Squadron used a built-in slave circuit to hijack all Imperial vessels within the Yevethan fleet including Spaar's flagship Pride of Yevetha.
With the Imperial ships in hyperspace en route for Byss, the remaining Yevethan warships refused to surrender. Despite being outnumbered five to one, they fought fanatically to the last forcing the New Republic to completely destroy the enemy fleet. With Yevethan military aggression halted, the New Republic fleet withdrew from the N'zoth system.
