Background

It begins in earnest when Teal'c, Apophis's First Prime, accepts that his master is no god and defects to Earth in the pilot. Over the seasons more Jaffa join the cause, hidden at first and then openly. The decisive battle comes at Dakara at the end of season 8, after which the free Jaffa found their own nation with Dakara as its capital.
