Darkness era
The Star Wars wiki of fan invention.
The Darkness era marked the beginning of the collapse of the Galactic Alliance, leaving the galaxy in a state of anarchy. The Darkness Era started with the 50-year Darkness War, in 616 ABY.
Also in this Era, for the first time in over 500 years, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, or CIS, came back to try to take back the Galaxy as well as the Imperial Remnant, the Diablo Conferacy, the Sith and Sith Knights and the Mandalorians. G0-T0 reformed the Bounty Hunter Guild and the Exchange.
All peaceful ties between the Republic and the Imperial Remnant were broken once again. The end of the war brought the destruction of nearly all Force sensitive. Once the war ended, in 666 ABY, the rest of the era was spent in rebuilding the Republic and the Jedi Order, and secretly a Sith Empire. This era held the Galactic Bounty Hunt, which hindered the efforts to rebuild the Republic.
The DC returned near the end of the era, which caused more problems for the recently rebuilt Republic. Also at the end of the era, a group of Fallen Jedi, under the command of Darth Mavoc, set about a war of conversion, where thousands of Jedi rallied to Mavoc's cause.
