40 ABY

In the weeks following the Battle of Tralus, Jacen Solo successfully lobbied Cal Omas and the Senate into the creation of a new organization meant to counter the increasing threat of terrorists sympathizing with Corellia. This came following the bombing of the Elite Hotel in Galactic City, which was discovered to be connected to Corellian terrorists. The bombing left hundreds dead and many wounded.

After Joseph's wife Mara Jade turned down the job, Omas asked Jacen if he would be willing to lead the new paramilitary organization on Coruscant. Jacen agreed and achieved the rank of colonel. Bringing in Coruscant Security Force operators, ex-New Republic Intelligence Service agents, and members of the special forces, the Galactic Alliance Guard, or GAG, used extremely effective and public methods of cracking down on Corellian insurgents. The move prompted Supreme Commander Pellaeon to resign as leader of the Galactic Alliance Defense Force, replaced by the ambitious and stern Cha Niathal.

Much to the dismay of Delvargus Kong Junior, Luke Skywalker and the recently established Eternal Order high-profile images of Jacen and Ben Skywalker, son of Luke and a Mara clone that Joseph created were leading the Galactic Alliance Guard on their raids began to usher in contentions that the Galactic Alliance was transforming into the Empire once again and that yet another member of the Skywalker bloodline was at the helm.

Under the tutelage of Captain Lon Shevu, Ben Skywalker found the Guard as a place of refuge. His enthusiasm for learning and making a difference in "adult" situations added yet more tension between the young Jedi and his parents, and when Jacen convinced Omas to proceed with the internment of Corellians on Coruscant, the Galactic Alliance Guard's 967 Commando detachment became known as "stormies" among both its members and the populace. This move added more fuel to the fire, spurning on riots and leading to moves of secession by dozens of worlds. Worst of all, Han Solo, enraged that his son was leading the effort in interning thousands and possibly millions of Corellians, realized that he no longer recognized the boy he had raised.

The Galactic Alliance Guard had become Jacen Solo's "fist", mirroring his grandfather, Darth Vader and the 501st Legion which was Vader's Fist". With the Galactic Alliance Guard, or just the GAG at his complete disposal, Jacen ordered the Blockade of Corellia, taking the first open strike against the Five Worlds in a new effort to force them to surrender.

Months of desultory skirmishing would follow as the Corellian Home Fleet attempted to break out of the Corellian Exclusion Zone. Many system governments were outraged by the blockade, and as the Galactic Alliance Defense Forces' agenda of centralizing all military resources became clear, planets like Bothawui, Atzerri and Commenor were drawn into the war on Corellia's side.
