The New Republic Era of Star Wars Explained in Under a Minute | Star Wars Explained

Report from the Holocron of Xela. Description: The New Republic era begins after the Rebel Alliance transitioned into an official government called…the New Republic, and lasts for over two decades. Although the Galactic Civil War has ended, undoing the damage done by the Empire proves challenging. Outer Rim planets fall into lawlessness, and the Imperial Remnant is allowed to thrive in the distant reaches of the galaxy. New Republic outposts try to warn their leaders of a growing threat, but high ranking officials turn a blind eye, hoping to avoid another war. Instead the responsibility largely falls on citizens of the Outer Rim, like several Mandalorian clans, New Republic soldiers willing to defy orders, and a Jedi survivor named Ahsoka Tano who fails to prevent the return of a brilliant Imperial Grand Admiral named Thrawn. His homecoming will likely unite the Imperial Remnant under his leadership to mount one final campaign against the New Republic. During this time Luke Skywalker begins a Jedi training academy and takes on his nephew, Leia’s daughter, Ben Solo as his first student. This section of the timeline is where many of the Star Wars streaming series take place, including The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and the upcoming series, Skeleton Crew. #starwars
