War for the Southern Thanium Worlds

The War for the Southern Thanium Worlds, often referred to as Freedom Reigns by the Republic, was a Republic incursion into the southern Imperial-controlled Thanium worlds. The campaign was devastating for both the Empire and the Republic, and neither could truly be considered the victor, though the Republic did manage to cause severe amounts of destruction with heavy orbital bombardments on the worlds of Columex and Belderone by the forces of Fleet Admiral Elijah Kooper.
