Coronation of Volanus Xavier

The coronation of Volanus Xavier took place on Bastion, in the Imperial gardens, in 3 ADK. It took place only a week after the death of the empress and numerous Imperial knights. The majority of Imperial general and admirals arrived, and supported Volanus' coronation. The coronation was broadcast throughout all of Imperial space, and citizens were required, by law, to watch.Despite most of the Empire supporting him, many disagreed, and began plotting to eliminate Xavier and his allies.

With most Imperials recognizing the grand admiral as the Empire and supreme commander of all Imperial forces, Volanus was able to plan his campaign against the Galactic Interplanetary Alliance. However, at the same time, dozens of rebellious moffs, planned for his demise, and began marshalling their forces to remove Xavier from power.
