Prequels serve as a warning against the rising tide of Fascism, The First Order is somewhat a warning against Neo Nazis. Right now in the Mandalorian sort of parallels "Project Paperclip" and reintegrating the "Little Nazis" while repositioning for what would be the cold war, but there's no reals third faction to face. If the Mandalorians serve as the image of the new and growing threat, despite not having any real expansionist goals, it could work. The Allies and former Nazis teamed up real fast to fight the Communists politically. The Mandalorians themselves may just offer a loose affiliation of former Seapartist systems a banner to organize with and to get help with local security concerns. Honestly a region of Mandalorians Protectorate seems like a cool idea, where systems more or less take care of their people, and the Mandalorians patrol for pirates and slavers.

There's also another problem that in both cases, both governments operate under very adverse circumstances. The NCR is operating in a post-apocalyptic world where most of the infrastructure has been destroyed and is very depopulated and is having trouble exerting authority over its territory. The new Republic is similar, the empire has collapsed and with it the bureaucracy and institutions that it inherited from the Old Republic. Which means NR has a weak foundation to build upon, forcing the NR into having to struggle with the burden of transitioning from a rebel organization to a government, which is always a major struggle that the real world as shown. The result is its struggling very hard to make themselves into a effective government and exert authority over its territories, With all the chaos of the empire collapse going on along with elements of the old regime doing everything in their power to stop them, with Thrawn behind the scenes Rallying and coordinate with them to instigate a resurgence. The NCR at least started small and grew slowly and steadily over the several decades. The NR situation is much worse.

Maybe that's the point where the Captain and some of his loyal men start to seek out like minded individuals who then under Princess Lea form the Resistance?

There's no fixing the sequels unless they're allowed to do a total retcon of things. The prequels had great characters and a great set up, just it was way to much for a movie format. The Clone Wars worked because there was so much for them to work with. The sequels issues run much deeper, the one of the biggest being Rey (which Ahsoka called out in season 2 of Mano). While I know to many people throw the term Mary Sue around without understanding it but Rey is a textbook example of one. She excels at everything with no effort, everyone loves her, no one can challenge her, she's better at doing things then established characters who put in actual work at that thing, and she's always right. In her first movie, without any training, mastered the force and took down her Darth Vader. Never used a light saber and just won because Kennedy is pushing some dumb progressive agenda (people should really look at where the progressive movement came from, they are not good ppl and were Hitler simps). Then there's the fact there is no plan, things just happen in these movies. The sad part was the only movie in the sequels that seemed to have a plan was The Last Jedi (I still hate that movie, but on at lest a technical level Ruin Johnson is more competent at making movies then JJ is).

It's unfortunate that they likely will be at odds given that Mandalore is located in the Outer Rim and could really benefit the New Republic as an ally. They could handle pirate issues and respond to things like smuggling and small time warlords much quicker, not even thinking about the bulwark they'd be in slowing down the Imperial assaults and act as an early warning system. Heck, there is so much Imperial and Rebel equipment being decommissioned and scrapped that they could offer Mandalore a carrier and fighters, or some frigates to help expand their ability to police the Outer Rim and let the Republic focus forces in other areas. Sadly it's more likely Thrawn will attack one of the locations where all the Imperial ships are awaiting dismantling and steal those ships for his forces, similar to how he acquired the Katana Fleet in the novels.

Captain Carson Teva is like Captain Rex. Rex should've been promoted to Commander a while back due to his combat experience and leadership. We can safely assume Rex is the leading commanding officer of the 501st Legion even though a Captain at a Legion size can't. It makes sense since Anakin doesn't care about the formalities. Also, it ties back to The Clone Wars movie where Rex said "In my book, experience outranks everything". Maybe Teva chose to stay as a Captain because he wants to be active out there in the field than sitting inside an office.

Thanks Alan👍🏼

A lot of the new Star Wars stuff is setting up justifications for the Emperor's return, but I notice a distinct lack of attention to the giant Star-killer in the room; when are we going to make some headway on the logistics of turning a planet into a super-weapon? We see enough about the logistics of the Death Star's construction, you can make a flip-book with the Death Star in its various states of construction, but Star-Killer base is just... suddenly there, and then it kills everyone, then it is destroyed.

Every character is severely underwritten, Carson Teva included: if I were the Ladies Man Superior Officer, yeah I’d find his argument extremely thin too regardless of how terrible my own argument was on screen Favreau needs an investigator character, not a trooper like Cara Dune… it could be Teva, but he’s written like a frustrated beat cop; ironically they invested a stack of money for Elya Kain to look like Deckard, but the writing needs a Blade Runner to investigate all this

It's paper strength was about 3000 men, but between Sept 1943 and May 1945, over 10000 men served in the unit, which suffered more than 300% casualties.

We saw in the Clone Wars that Mandalore wanted to remain independent. They certainly have their reasons and are largely cultural.

With Bo-katan as the leader again, and the realization that her people are throwbacks heading for extinction, perhaps she will find the wisdom to seek a new path for her people that is satisfactory and yet not self-destructive. There are definitely plenty of other warrior cultures in the Galaxy to take notes on. How's that going for them? Probably about the same. Might be time for the Mandalorians to get with the times and provide value to their neighbors and allies, become productive citizens in the Galactic society.

Ah, so it WAS Mon Mothma. I called it 😏

De-commission most of the available naval assets was really stupid of the New Republic, but it's not the first time a Star Wars government has done something monumentally stupid. I personally still don't regard the sequels as canon, but I think this is definitely one step of reconciling them. One thing about them that I dislike is that they just feel like AI-generated Star Wars based on the original trilogy - they maintained the dynamic of the Rebellion fighting the Empire and just changed the names. Now, there's at least a reasonable explanation for that.

This right here is one of the things I love about star wars, politics! Personally I'd love if they managed to resecure and settle mandalore and establishing it as an independant world in the eyes of the New Republic with the help of Pleziure V (as per the royals agreement at the end of episode 6) as the mando's rebuild their planet, they deepen their ties with other independant worlds along the Hidian way, and eventually forming a sort of loose traders guild on the outer rim, with the mandalorians rising to become the protectors. As I don't care much for the Disney trilogy, it would be wonderful to see how this Alliance of Independant worlds would fair in a galaxy beset by the first order, and a New Republic that gets practically wiped out in the first salvo.

In a way, I hope the Ahsoka series will continue to the sequals, and perhaps rewrites the story.

The New Republic is finding out what the Galactic Empire and Republic that preceded them already knew: That running a galaxy is hard as hell. The Rebel Alliance as the underdog was tightly run, efficient, made every resource matter. They were creative. We've had many examples of how the large Republic and Galactic Empire acted slowly, clumsily. Not acting with threats as they should. The Rebel Alliance after taking over the galaxy, now has to worry about its administration, and probably, very likely now content. Coruscant is theirs. Palpatine and Vader are dead. They've continued to curbstomp the Empire. So now, as the New Republic, as far as they were concerned, all that being done, they won. You can let the foot off the gas pedal now. Except the Imperial Remnant hasn't thrown in the towel. Now working with less, the Remnant is being more efficient with what they have left. They're being more careful. The Imperial Remnant are now the efficiently run underdogs, like how the Rebel Alliance was when they were up and comers.

This is NOT manufacturers releasing a stock illegal product. For non thermoformed paddles (or anything where a delaminated surface is still anchored to the paddle) this just results in a dead paddle (which may he better for control actually). Really the ppa just needs on site testing so that if a player challenges a paddle, the paddle can be immediately disqualified from play. In tennisnit would be like if a broke string/cracked racket somehow benefitted a player. That racket should be removed from play as soon as someone notices it...

Imagine 3 days after 9/11 some Rebel group in the middle of no where called to get help. Everyone is so busy guarding their own borders nothing will get sent out or even acknowledged. Ep 9 meanwhile focuses on a still small resistance and organizing a fleet of small ships to take out the Last Order, because Lando is more Charismatic than Leia. The Fleet in Ep 9 has been widely criticized for just taking existing ship models at the time and randomizing assets. The identities of anyone isn't known, just that Lando called in a favor. Considering the size of the galaxy, they are a bit of a paltry number anyway. That had to be just the number of ships that could reach the rendezvous within 18 hours.

The New Republic will fight the Mandalorians for one of two reasons, both possibilities engineered by Moff Gideon : 1) Gideon specifically hired Mandalorian privateers to do his prison transport break Or 2) Gideon's own forces rescued him and explicitly PLANTED a broken piece of beskar armor inside the shuttle that was explicitly not blown to smithereens so that it could be found and implicate the Mandalorians. Option #2 seems more likely for a Putin stand-in. As an intelligence officer planting misleading evidence for opposing forces to find was a critical skill. It is a skill that Gideon leans heavily on as an Imperial remnant leader opposing a much more powerful enemy in the unified New Republic. Gideon HAS TO guide, befuddle and manipulate the perceptions and actions of the New Republic precisely and constantly. To this end: allowing the Mandalorians to rescue him in the hopes that they would leave evidence behind implicating themselves is leaving too much to chance. The only way to ensure that the New Republic and Mandalorian factions fight with each other is to precisely orchestrate the frame job. Which points to my original inspiration for this theory: When have we EVER seen beskar armor fragment or leave behind pieces? Gideon has access to vast amounts of beskar that he made new armor with. It would be much more reliable for him to manufacture the evidence entirely himself thus ensuring that his masterful frame job actually works.

holy shit ima try the drumstick starter

Isnt that the guy who own a convince store? Its called Mr Kim's Convenience or something?

Chicken wings are good thow

We don't yet know yet if Carson knows more of the Ghost crew besides Zeb and may have heard of the imperial Mandalorians.

Sometimes it feels like the population of the entire star wars galaxy is about 100, 000 people

We see the writing on the wall...doesn't mean we can do a thing about it. That's life.

Captain Carson's greatest enemy is Disney Execs as this recap made me realize the people he tries to recruit keep ending up on the chopping block. :)

Can you or anyone else source the songs used in this video for me by chance?

Aw jeez, reading the smart comments, & feeling squeezed by the sequel movies, which I didn’t hate at the time. Dang. Wish we’d got this stuff first, sequels later. Retcon is just not as good as things might have been… Enuf said, on with the show. Which I do still love.

I think Jon and Dave will find a way to keep a Mandalorian conflict somewhere in the Mando Verse

Hey what generation tech video is it where Anakin asks if padmes an angel but they edited his face to look funny and his voice to sound funny

I love the Asian xwing dude. He's like the only sane man. I can't even imagine how exhausted his ass is dealing with idiots

(5:00) Bruh

It's a huge galaxy yet the same people keep bumping into the same people over and over.

It's like during the American Civil War George Armstrong Custer was a General and after the war he was demoted to Lt. Colonel.

New republic would see the mandalorians in their current troops numbers and fleets strenght, more as an anoyance, than threat, to galaxy-wide rule of new republic. My bet on solution (ending) of S03 is either some of main heroes taming actual mythosaur and destroying the underground imperial "pseudomandalorian" base. OR possibly wide interference/assistance by Bobba Fett.

It would be kind of ironic for another union of criminal syndicate and Mandalorian militant powers lol. This time with less Sith interference and more Mandobros Unity

I have issues with Kalevala. An entire plush planet with water, home to a single castle? Concordia? All the other habitable planets/moons. Untouched by the Empire, and yet seemingly lacking in Mandalorians. Obviously, not everyone was chased out of the system. Yet, no one notices anything going on. I think Mandalorians from the moons of Mandalore should show up to see what all is going on.

You're mistaken the Republic doesn't seek to rule the galaxy ,it's clear that in order to be part of the Republic you have to apply for your planet to gain membership and for a while the new Republic will see the mandalorians protection of plazir and Navarro as a great help and in the future the mandalorians may have more planets asking for protection.tge time of the Crusades has gone and some like plazir may prefer the order that the mandalorians may bring it's possible that the mandalorians will form a protectorate ,then the only possible way a conflict could occur is if a planet had a population that was split on who they should join for protection .with the mndalorians and Republic engaging in a proxy war

What i ment to tell is, that mandos in their current innumerable hundrets of troopers and tens of (light) ships are no match even for single usualy populated planet with tens of MILIONS people, actual army and actual navy backed by mediocre treasury. Multiplanetary government with unspeakable bilions of citizens and wealthiest single government in known galaxy are HEAVYLY out of their punching weight...

Drum stick 🍗?!

Consider the show runners (Filoni and Favreau) and their biases and reasons for loving star wars. Consider the material they must inevitably work towards (the events of the sequel saga). Consider the involvement of the Mandalorians and Ahsoka in the conflict between the First Order and the Resistance (none). These clues suggest that either the Mandalorians are going to be wiped out (but the showrunners would hate destroying the Mandalorians permanently) or that the events of Ahsoka and The Mandalorian are going to fully alienate the Mandalorian people from the republic such that they refuse to come to the republic's aid in its final hour. Knowing how big of nerds the showrunners are, I can see them writing the Mandalorians back into a position of prominence in the outer rim. After the death of the republic by firing squad in Episode 7, it would not at all surprise me to see the galaxy fall into loose federations and galactigraphically aligned political clusters, and it'd be super dope to see the Mandalorians take up the old role of the Jedi as wandering galactic peacekeepers alongside Rey's Skywalkers.

I am thinking that once they retake Mandalore the Mandalorians will go silent, silently rebuilding and opting not to sign with the New Republic but rather forming an alliance with Navarro, Tattooine, and Pleasure. One ship that I want the Madalorians to get their hands on and take control of is the Gravestone, I want to back-tech it creating four more ships, one to be parked in orbit over Navarro, Tattoine, and Pleasure. There is not one ship in the known galaxy that can contend with the Gravestone, the ship that dispensed and destroyed the Eternal Fleet.

dude i just thought of something crazy what if moff gideon cloned himself like the clone army and jango fett. that would explain why we still see doctor pershing in season 3 why moff is still interested in his work

I love how the New Republic used it’s version of Project Paperclip just to fill mundane bureaucratic positions no one else wanted 😂

This is really close to what is going on today.

Carson Teva is the Robin Olds of the New Republic.

After Andor Mon makes my skin crawl.

Wish for new Earth 🌎🌍 in Star Wars videos soon.

More like Rick Blaine and Captain Renault than Romeo and Juliette

I wish they used the EU lingo like "hit and fade" instead of "hit and run" small difference but it would show they value the stuff that kept star wars alive

that's not the team up were going to get to see, boba and his new crew will show up with cobb vance and the people of freetown, Ahsoka will get involved after bo katan puts word out that grand admiral thrawn showed up in orbit over mandalore, now the best part is not when they save din jarin but also save mace windu who is in cell next to him and when baby yoda see mace windu he says his first word out loud, now the sad part is Fennec will die a hero, but she gets shot in the stomach, so she is in a coma till she is repaired.

I think Mandalore can be allowed to thrive, as they focus on rebuilding and securing their own corner of the galaxy. A new Mandalorian state like from the Clone Wars. Left alone by the Republic as they aren't at war, and left alone by the First Order as they were focused entirely on the core.

It occurred to me that your sign off line "my allegiance is to The Republic, to democracy" while s Start Wars quote and a good sentiment , technically this statement is a paradox. A republic is a government of representative and policy is decided by these few. Choosing them may be done democratically, but ultimately the decision making power rest in the hands of a few. This is juxtaposed to a democracy where every citizen has a say in choosing the governing law.

If the New Republic was more competent, Captain Carson Teva would be the Wing Commander of of several large squadrons stationed on a modified Venator. Several of these Venator's would function as mobile star bases in the Outer rim working with Outer rim governments. To barrow from B5, their job would be to create the peace, not enforce the peace.

The greatest threat to mandalore isn’t the empire or the new republic. The greatest threat to mandalore is bad writing possibility.

Kryze rhymes with "freeze." We hear Bo herself say it NUMEROUS times. This isn't even controversial; it's factual. Please quit saying it wrong on purpose.

We’ve heard about the first chicken wing, but what about the second??

Let's be real, would anyone view a resurgent polity of warriors as anything but a threat, especially when people are at best vaguely aware of threats on the horizon?
