Nikardun conquests

The Nikardun conquests in the Unknown Regions were orchestrated by General Yiv of the Nikardun Destiny in an attempt to conquer various states of the Chaos. Yiv was successful in subjugating or otherwise making allies of several factions, but the involvement of the Chiss Ascendancy driven by Senior Captain Mitth'raw'nuruodo hindered and ultimately ruined Yiv's manipulations.

After a Nikardun attack on a refugee starship in Chiss territory, Captain Thrawn began to investigate the situation with the help of Admiral Ar'alani, discovering forces of the Nikardun Destiny in the Rapacc system. Throughout several encounters with Nikardun forces or their allies, Thrawn gained information about General Yiv and his regime, managing to outmaneuver the Nikardun in a battle near the Vak homeworld of Primea. Thrawn captured Yiv, who became a prisoner of the Chiss Ascendancy. Following Yiv's disappearance, no successor to Yiv was able to consolidate power and repair the damage Thrawn had done to their empire. As a result, the Nikardun conquests fell apart.
