Liberation of Cloud City

Canon Linked from 20 articles

The liberation of Cloud City occurred in 5 ABY during the Galactic Empire's Iron Blockade of the Anoat sector, when the planet Bespin was liberated from Imperial control. The fight began when Lobot, aide to the former Baron Administrator of Cloud City; General Lando Calrissian of the New Republic relayed messages to him and formed a resistance movement with the Bespin Wing Guard on the planet. Soon after, the Uprising in the Anoat sector, led by an individual known as "the Smuggler," liberated Bespin, basing the Uprising's operations in the Paradise Atrium of Cloud City.
