The Alliance to Restore the Republic, known as the Rebel Alliance, Alliance, the Rebellion, or the First Rebellion was an alternative government of pro-democratic revolutionary factions and clandestine cell systems who sought to restore the Galactic Republic and free the galaxy from the Galactic Empire. It formed from the rebellion, an umbrella term for the various rebel cells before uniting. The Alliance was publicly and formally declared with the Declaration of the Rebel Alliance and the document of the Declaration of Rebellion.

As opposed to waging all-out war, the Alliance waged a war of attrition against the Imperial government, establishing small bases across the galaxy instead of controlling an entire planet.

When the Alliance successfully stole the plans for the Empire's ultimate weapon, the Death Star, and destroyed the space station in the Battle of Yavin with the help of Luke Skywalker, the tide of the war began to change and the Rebel threat began to prove a severe thorn in the Empire's side, and continued to engage in battles with the Empire in the Galactic Civil War. However, under the command of Darth Vader, the Imperial forces succeeded in defeating the Alliance on Hoth, forcing the Alliance to scatter their forces in order to survive.

Eventually, the Alliance prevailed against the Empire and critically damaged it when they launched an attack against the second Death Star during its construction in what would become the Battle of Endor. Not only did the Alliance manage to destroy the super weapon, but the Imperial Navy was severely crippled by the loss of one of their Super Star Destroyers, and Luke Skywalker managed to redeem his father, Anakin Skywalker, who killed Emperor Sheev Palpatine, before dying himself in the battle. The Alliance was soon reorganized into the fledgling New Republic which would later defeat the Empire at the Battle of Jakku, and force the Empire to surrender by signing the Galactic Concordance, effectively ending the war.
