  Rebel Alliance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the fictional Star Wars universe, the Rebel Alliance, or more formally, the Alliance to Restore the Republic, was an interstellar political resistance force formed in direct military opposition to the Galactic Empire.
It is known exactly when the Alliance formed, but we do know it was established almost immediately after the Clone Wars during the onset of the upcoming Galactic Civil War, where Chancellor Palpatine transformed the Galactic Republic into the Empire with himself as the Emperor.
The Alliance suffered a setback on Hoth when one of their main bases was overrun by Darth Vader's forces, but eventually managed to mass a fleet to destroy the second Death Star in the Battle of Endor, where both the Emperor and Vader were killed.

 Galactic Alliance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
With Coruscant devasted and 'Vong-formed' beyond recognition, the government of the Galactic Alliance planned to relocate to Denon, a world in the Core that had escaped bombardment and occupation by the Yuuzhan Vong.
The Galactic Alliance was led by Chief of State Cal Omas and his High Council, comprised of Jedi, Senators and members of the Alliance's military and governmental leadership.
The term Galactic Alliance is also used as a shorthand to describe the coalition of every major power in the Star Wars galaxy, including the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances (New Republic), the Imperial Remnant, the Chiss Ascendancy, the New Jedi Order, the Hapes Consortium, the Centrality, and others united against the Yuuzhan Vong.

The Rebel Alliance is known mostly for it's small but herioc and resourceful navy, which uses such famous snub fighters as the X-Wing, Y-Wing, A-Wing, and Z-95 Headhunters as well as others.
The Rebel Alliance has no main HQ as it uses guerilla tactics, but there are rumours of a secret Rebel base on the planet of Corellia as well as many others scattered around the galaxy.

 STAR WARS: Rebel Alliance Insignia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
As with the insignia of the armed forces of the Galactic Empire, the uniforms and insignia of the Rebel Alliance must indicate the status of commissioned and non-commissioned members in an unambiguous fashion.
A realistic system for the interpretation of the insignia of officers in the Alderaan-sponsored faction of the Rebel Alliance must: describe the significance of the distinction of blue and red dots; and state what are the substantive characteristics of the plaques.
Rebel officers participating in the Battle of Endor and the briefing preceding it wore uniforms and insignia completely different from those of the Alderaan-sponsored rebels involved with the Battles of Yavin and Hoth.
