Confederacy military

The military of the Confederacy of Independent Systems (CIS) operated during the Separatist Crisis and subsequent conflict. It had two main branches—the Separatist Droid Army, and the Confederate Navy—but consisted of an amalgam of military forces from the various allied organizations of the Confederacy, with battle droids as their infantry. The Confederate Head of State, Count Dooku, held supreme authority at a civilian level as Commander-in-Chief, while military authority was chiefly under the purview of the Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies, General Sev'rance Tann and her successor General Grievous. At the height of its power, the Confederate military was the most formidable military force in the Galaxy.

The military was dissolved when Darth Vader killed the Separatist Council on Mustafar at the order of newly-crowned Emperor Palpatine, and subsequently gave the command for most of the droid forces to shut down. Later, the droids of the former Confederacy would be reactivated for the duration of Gizor Dellso's rebellion during the Imperial Era.
