First Sith Civil War

The First Sith Civil War was a conflict within the Sith Dynasty after the end of the War of Revelations.

After the Tython Bloodbath, which saw the death of Evvret Darth, the surviving Sith forces retreated back to Korriban. His offspring, Hyst and Embak bickered over who should take the throne of the Sith. This eventually boiled over into a full scale war, with half the Dynasty being split over who should take control of the Sith. Ultimately, Embak would prevail as the winner after he killed his sister and took the throne. However, due to the combined casualties of the War of Revelations and the civil war, the Sith were too weak to begin conquest of the galaxy again. Combined with more infighting between Embak's rivals, the Sith were stuck in a continuous cycle of power struggles for the next few hundred years. up until the foundation of the Republic
