The Imperial vs. Gungan Battle was an ongoing conflict between forces of the Galactic Empire and Gungans loyal to the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War.
The Battle
- "It is such a tragedy. The Gungans are so peaceful, so cute and kind. Well, Jar Jar--I met him once. He's a bit annoying. Anyway! You can find the site of their most recent battle at the location I downloaded in your datapad."

The battle took place at a Gungan monument on the Mid Rim world of Naboo sometime after the Battle of Yavin. The battle involved at least one All Terrain Armored Transport, several stormtroopers, and many wetland assault stormtroopers against a horde of plainclothes Gungans loyal to the Rebel Alliance. By at least 0 ABY, the Gungans had succeeded in destroying the AT-AT and killing all the white armored stormtroopers, but fighting continued to persist between them and the many remaining swamptroopers.[15] An individual by the name of Montrus was situated close to the battle, at the base of the Gungan monument.[17] The Naboo noble Roric V`lia and his employee Vaik'anna Silverlight had activities related to the battle.[16]

- ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
