A clash took place on the world of Thyferra, which is also a planet. This confrontation was part of the New Republic's effort to achieve liberation following the Battle of Endor.
Following the combat within the Yag'Dhul system, specifically the battle there, the New Republic opted to advance their campaign by setting Thyferra free.
Although Thyferra gained its freedom, the New Republic did not establish a permanent presence there. The planet remained officially neutral in the conflict. Thyferra faced internal issues due to considerable conflict between humans and Vratix, as well as disputes involving the Xucphra and Zaltin Corporation.
