In ancient times, the Jedi fought the Sith in a massive war. Here's everything that we know about this Force-war in Star Wars canon.

The origins of the Sith can be traced back to a schism within the Jedi Order 5,000 years ago, leading to a conflict between the Jedi and the Sith.
The Sith-Jedi Wars began roughly 3,000 years ago, with a significant battle taking place at Malachor, resulting in the death of both Jedi and Sith.
Darth Bane established the Sith Rule of Two, with only two Sith at a time, and operated in secrecy until their revenge on the Jedi. This era lasted for a thousand years until the rise of Palpatine.
