The battle of Shindra's Veil was the climactic naval engagement of the Unification War, Shey Tapani's campaign to unite the Twelve Kingdoms of the Expanse under one banner. Tapani commanded 150 starships at the battle against the Rogue Houses in Shindra's Veil in 7328 BBY, and the battle brought an end to the war before Tapani founded the Tapani Empire. Thousands of years later, the Unification Gala celebrated the battle with a reenactment.
