It is difficult to pinpoint the exact moment when rebellion against Palpatine began, but its earliest known roots existed shortly before the end of the Clone Wars.

Members of the Rebellion were known as 'Rebels', 'Rebs', or 'Rebel Scum' by stormtroopers and other Imperials. Following the deaths of Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader during the Battle of Endor, the Alliance became the Alliance of Free Planets, and would finally realize its goal of reviving the Old Republic, especially following the capture of Coruscant. The Alliance found its first major victory at Toprawa, and would later deal a massive blow to the Empire at the Battle of Yavin.

The Rebellion fought to restore liberty to the galaxy in this civil war.Īlthough it had fewer troops and resources when compared to the Imperial Military, the Alliance possessed a strong will to fight, dedicated and equally trained soldiers, and brilliant commanders, some of which had defected due to the atrocities committed by the Empire. The Alliance and the Galactic Empire engaged in open warfare in a conflict known as the Galactic Civil War. The Corellian Treaty and the Declaration of Rebellion formally organized the Alliance, and the crest of the Marek family stood as the symbol of the Alliance after his act of redemption on the Death Star. It was originally formed by a group of Loyalists, united by Galen Marek, determined to preserve the ideals of the Galactic Republic.

The Alliance to Restore the Republic (also known as the Alliance to Restore Freedom to the Galaxy, the Rebel Alliance and, informally, as the Rebellion), was a loose alliance of planetary-, system-, and sector-level forces formed in direct military opposition to the Galactic Empire.
