Originally formed in 28 ABY by Archduke Christopher Tirk and the other Feudal leaders of the Jusadih System, the Jusadih Independence Coalition once took power of the entirety of Jusadih in an effort to gain power and make decisions without the shadowy overseers of Clan Plagueis. Joined by militias from each world, the Crimson Tide, and even Rogue Dark Jedi seeking a life of greater power and prestige, they attempted to receive a legitimate Senate presence in the Galactic Alliance but were blocked and then thwarted by Plagueis in the War of Ascension.
Today, with the Tide destroyed and the Feudalist ideals and structures long since gone, the JIC exists as a number of semi-affiliated and variably motivated splinter cells, with only the desire for their system's liberation from the iron grip of the Jusadih Military Regime uniting them. Though they still fight tenaciously and are a constant and often dangerous thorn in the side of the Ascendant House, without higher leadership, they hardly pose a real threat to the JMR's rule.
History
Information forthcoming.
Organization
Splinter Factions
At present, the JIC exists as many disunited splinter groups and hold-outs, lacking any deeper organization. While at times groups will discover one another and work together, overall, different cells operate on their own and are best known for performing guerrilla strikes or executing raids against government property or supply warehouses. While at times these raids succeed, overall their effectiveness is limited.

Kogron's Raiders
Originally part of a Regime Infantry Company, this group of soldiers defected during the War of Ascension when the Plagueis Summit gave them orders to plant makeshift explosives - cheap to make, but designed to cause gruesome wounds and horrific damage to those it hit - in the homes of citizens of Shintera. The attacks would be blamed on the JIC, which would increase anti-Feudalist sentiment and by effect increase the numbers of enlisting soldiers in the then-fragile JMR.
Before they could finish executing the order, their leader, Kogron Bast, and his most faithful troops gunned down their fellows and destroyed the explosives before they could be used. They then defected to the Jusadih Independence Coalition, no longer willing to fight for a Regime that would happily mutilate and murder its people for a bit of propaganda. Though Kogron was killed in the fight, his story became known to the entire JIC, and now serves as a source of inspiration for aspiring young rebels. Today, the original Company is diminished in number, but has attracted and trained many ready and willing bodies to help stave off and hinder Regime oppression.
While the Raiders don't have a higher command to follow or a goal in mind, their only choice is the one that they take: They fight against the target that has them down but not out. In addition to rebel forces, they have used stolen credits to purchase black market gear, weaponry, and even a group of refurbished and reactivated B1 battle droids from the era of the Clone Wars. These forces are concentrated into sharp guerrilla strikes against the enemy wherever they can attack, and while their equipment may be inferior when compared to their enemies, the training offered by the former troopers in their group often gives them an edge against enemies that lack a proper warning. This makes them a serious threat to Plagueian infrastructure if not painstakingly tracked, a difficult task as most of them know exactly how to evade enemy intelligence.

Trivia
- The JIC was originally created by Alaris Jinn di Plagia as the enemy of the War of Ascension, an event that he wrote.
- Since the Crimson Tide's destruction, the JIC has gone from being a stop-gap measure in competition creation to a very real and much-changed part of the Plagueian list of enemies.
- The first use of the red armband as the symbol of JIC membership was coined by Vessicant in a fiction written for a Plagueis competition; it has been adapted as the de facto symbol of the modern Coalition.
