In the fictional Star Wars universe, the Confederacy of Independent Systems is an organization that existed in the latter years of the Republic. The organization was made up of organizations and Star Systems that wanted to leave the Republic, numbering "thousands" and with at least "ten thousand ready to join". Several corporations such as the Trade Federation, Techno Union, Commerce Guild, Corporate Alliance, and Intergalactic Banking Clan, among others, also joined. The organization's main goal was to split from the Republic and form their own republic, saying the Republic had become too corrupt. The members of this organization are called Separatists.
The tension between the Republic and the Separatists eventually lead to the Clone Wars. After the Battle of Geonosis, the Separatists seized Rhen Var, but that planet was later retaken by the Republic. The events depicted in the video game, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, turns the tide of the Clone Wars. Other major engagements include Jabiim, Muunilist, Duro and other worlds.
The political head of the confederacy is Count Dooku, a former Jedi Master. The military leader of the confederacy is the mysterious General Grievous.
