The Dawn of the Jedi Era of Star Wars Explained in Under a Minute | Star Wars Explained

Report from the Holocron of Xela. Description: The Dawn of the Jedi era of Star Wars takes place around twenty five thousand years before the events of Star Wars: A New Hope, or possibly earlier. We don’t have exact dates for this era, because it’s part of the timeline we know the least about. I would guess that it lasts for about five thousand years, bringing us to twenty thousand years before the Battle of Yavin, when the Old Republic begins to take shape. As the name suggests, this era surrounds the creation of the Jedi Order, which we currently know very little about. Fortunately, that story is on the way in the form of a film by James Mangold. For now, there are a couple of events we know happened for sure. Professor Huyang, the droid most recently seen in Ahsoka, was activated around this time, so he is old. It’s likely the first Jedi temples were constructed, like the one seen on Ahch-To. And that brings us to the Prime Jedi, who is said to be the founder of the Order, but they could be a mythical or metaphorical figure. As the Jedi Order grew in size, connected organizations like the Ordu Aspectu were created out of their philosophies. Seen in the Doctor Aphra comics, the Aspectu became a rival of sorts to the Jedi, leading to conflict. Since this story is a part of the Star Wars universe, I can’t imagine the creation of the Jedi Order will be completely peaceful and without struggle. #starwars
