Confederate–Republic peace conference

A peace conference took place around the second year of the Clone Wars on the neutral planet Mandalore between representatives of the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems in an effort to end the pan-galactic conflict. The conference was presided over by Duchess Satine Kryze within her royal palace in the New Mandalorian capital, Sundari. At the beginning of the meeting, Naboo's Senator Padmé Amidala opened up the discussions, leading the Republic senators in the peace negotiations, but she was quickly rebuffed by Senator Voe Atell, who called for the Republic to declare the Separatist Alliance legitimate. However, before the delegates could further discuss their terms of peace, Lux Bonteri, son of the late Onderonian senator Mina Bonteri, interrupted the summit. He announced to the politicians that it was Count Dooku, Head of State of the Confederacy, that had his mother murdered. This led young Bonteri to soon afterward be escorted out by Separatist security droids, allowing the discussion to continue. Shortly after his escape, however, the negotiations fell apart completely.
