Resurgent Sith Order

The Resurgent Sith Order is the most powerful order of Force users in the galaxy following the destruction of the Republic Jedi Order. The Sith Order was a key player in the First Order-Republic War due to rallying support from the common people of the Outer Rim. The Sith Order was formed on the values of the Beniko Family, with Darth Amorosa overwhelmingly focused on the liberation of the downtrodden and opposition to corrupt and tyrannical politicians.

=History= The Resurgent Sith Order was formed after the death of Darth Mayrik, when Aliana took up the mantle of Dark Lord of the Sith and adopted a policy of unapologetic Sith pride. As secrecy had only led to Mayrik's death, Aliana reasoned that the Republic would try to kill her regardless of how friendly she was and adopted a policy of confrontation.

The Sith were largely an order of one for a very long time, until the First Order-Republic War when Amorosa gained several apprentices: The Dark Jedi Rey Beniko, the Rangers Finn Dameron and Jannah Tico, and the Sith Apprentice Talon. They formed the bulk of the Resistance's Force Users and were eventually under Amorosa's direct command after Leia Organa promoted the Sith to General.

Though tentative allies with the Galactic Republic, the alliance was plagued by near-constant hostilities and escalation from the Republic which resulted in them ending the war as enemies.

Following the war and a brief vacation with her wife, Amorosa waged war against the Hutt Cartels and disrupted their business. The Sith also attacked the Confederacy of Corporate Systems and toppled it's governments. The now free planets would eventually band together for mutual advantage and form a new galactic government. In the spirit of honoring Amorosa's efforts to free them, and to antagonize the Republic, this new organization was dubbed the Sith Empire. Not every free system chose to join the Empire, but the Empire worked to maintain good relations with them regardless.

Amorosa kept the Sith separate from the Empire for quite some time, preferring to operate the Sith as an independant organization. She and her apprentice continued to operate a strike force throughout the galaxy, liberating words from the chokehold of the Confederacy and the Hutts.

The Republic attempted to strike out against the Sith, but the goodwill from the free systems, the Jedi Order and the Empire made those attacks unsuccessful.
