With the the same mindset the CIS could claim victory. They prevented the Republic from taking the mines and having more resources. The CIS prevented another planet from joining the crumbling Republic.

One might be forgiven for not remembering that the Galaxy is a unpredictable place that no doubt will surprise everyone. This is just example that the Republic and the Confederacy will suffer defeats from independent powers during the Clone Wars, and no doubt the Sith didn’t take into account during their great plan. It would be interesting to have seen this campaign during the Clone Wars Show, as a arc that perhaps no sides win the battle and a futility of war.

Given how the galaxy felt about the Jedi and the Sith, I’m surprised that more systems didn’t fight against them since, you know… force users usually never cared about the common people of the galaxy 🤷

[@derrickstorm6976]

You are partially mistaken, since even thought the Jedi Council had grown very stagnant in the centuries after the New Sith War, there were still many Jedi like Qui-Gonwho sought to help desperate people, and on many worlds these were the only kind of Jedi the people would ever see

[@twalls792]

Dude Jedi care about common people

[@CoolMyron]

the whole point of the jedi is to fight for the people

[@AverageAwesomeDude]

In the end of the day it’s actually quite hard to convince a lot of people to fight space wizards that move stuff with their mind. That stuff is probably pretty terrifying as a layman looking in from outside

The Noghri were neutral I think, they didn't fight in any battle but the Republic and Seps fought over their world which lead to the poisoning incident.

[@matthewlee3868]

The Noghri did not participate in the Clone Wars as active combatants, at the time they were A Primitive species without spacefaring capabilities and witnessed a space battle between the Republic and separatist, which I believe in the thrawn trilogy the second one dark force Rising, they mentioned it something being akin to watching Gods fight. It was also from that battle that one of the crashed ships cause the irreversible damage to their home planet ecosystem, in which the Empire would use to force them into indentured servitude for decades. Promising that they would fix the environmental damage.
