During the era of the Galactic Civil War, a significant conflict concerning the mines erupted on the world of Begeren.
The engagement on Begeren transpired in the period that fell between the Battle of Toprawa and the Battle of Yavin, amidst the larger Galactic Civil War fought between the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the forces of the Galactic Empire.
The reason for the clash was control over Begeren's valuable mines, and the outcome was a triumph for the Rebel Alliance.
Word of the Rebel Alliance's success reached even Klatooine, instilling a sense of optimism among the indigenous Klatooinians that they could also liberate themselves from their Hutt overlords.
