The Mandalorian Wars are a fictional event in the Expanded Universe of the Star Wars saga.
Origin
The Mandalorian Wars started after the hordes of Mandalorian tribes invaded Republic space. The Mandalorians first invaded Dxun, a moon of Onderon. The Republic would not not face the the invaders, so the Mandalorian leader Mandalore the Ultimate began ruthless attacks on helpless civilians on the planet Onderon. The Republic finally intervened yet the Mandalorians won planet after planet.
The Jedi Intervene
The Republic begged the Jedi Council to enter the war; however, the Jedi were slow to act. Revan and Malak called for support. Many Jedi Knights answered this call to follow the very charasmatic Revan. Many Jedi and Republic soldiers died in battle. The Jedi, however, pushed the Mandalorians back to Yavin, across Korriban, out of Dxun and Onderon and into Mandalorian space. Battles at Malachor I–IV were pushed through and the war ended at Malachor V in a bloody final showdown, in which the Mandalorian fleet was completely demolished by a mass shadow generator developed by Lieutenant Bao-Dur.
Aftermath
Revan and Malak returned as heroes, but also with the teachings of the Sith and a plan to conquer Republic space. The War of the Star Forge began.
