After restructuring the economy and production, the Kingdom of Dawn, which had long been in a state of war, saw its situation improve somewhat.

Moreover, compared with the Galactic Empire, the Rebel Alliance caused far less trouble within the Kingdom of Dawn, with most incidents remaining within controllable limits.

Although uprisings within the Kingdom of Dawn still continued one after another, they could basically be brought under control in the end. It was not like the Galactic Empire, where a planet might rise up and then suddenly go out of contact, never to be heard from again. Generally speaking, that meant either the Rebel Alliance had completely occupied the planet, or the Empire's suppression fleet had flattened it with Orbital Bombardment in a fit of rage.

At present, the uprisings within the Kingdom of Dawn were mainly concentrated on planets with large immigrant populations. But that could not be helped. After all, the immigrants who had been influenced by the Galactic Republic had fled the Galactic Empire precisely to escape its authoritarian and dictatorial rule.

Yet after struggling so hard to immigrate to the Kingdom of Dawn, they discovered that this place was just as authoritarian and dictatorial. Under such a psychological blow, many simply rose up and decided to fight the Kingdom of Dawn.

The most typical example was the Cyphar Planet Uprising that erupted on July 27, 10 BBY. It was also the most serious uprising to break out in the Kingdom of Dawn in recent times.

The uprising began because workers from an Engineering Corps were dissatisfied that all the planet's factories had been converted to produce energy-focusing systems for Paladin-class battlecruisers, items entirely unrelated to the planet's own civilian needs. Worse still, producing these components required overtime work, and they were not even paid overtime wages.
