The worst year in Star Wars history

Ойын-сауық

This was the worst year in Star Wars history, at least if you were within the New Republic. We'll take a look at the Thrawn Campaign, which was immediately followed up by Operation Shadow Hand and the Dark Empire. We'll talk all that for today's Star Wars video!

    In Legends, I always thought it was 27 ABY during the Yuuzhan Vong War, when the Vong conquered Coruscant. This wasn't just bad for the New Republic, it was bad for everyone in the galaxy, New Republic or Imperial Remnant. Remember, 365 trillion beings died in that war.

    The war was terryfying, but I think this "absolute worst" statement is a bit over the top, yes almost 400 trillion died, but the Galaxy contained more than 100 quadrillion (not every planet was conquered, likely not even in the Vong territory, they had limited amount of ships & warriors). Also, it was never confirmed if that number outclasses other galactic conflicts of the past, which were never provided with a specific death toll. Imo for galactic civilisation as a whole the worst moment came nonetheless in 19BBY, when 25 millenia of democracy and the ancient Jedi order protecting it were wiped out in favour of brutal Sith dictatorship, marking the peak of imbalance in the Force.

    The first year after order 66 must've been rough though, at least for a Jedi. The order you devoted your life to that had lasted for thousands of years was mercilessly taken away from you in an instant by the soldiers you once trusted with your life, those who survived were cursed to see the galaxy they swore to protect be corrupted by the dark side. Every day you wake up in an unending nightmare wishing you could have just died in the initial culling instead of living your life in hiding from the new Empire and their inquistors. The saddest part, and probably the reason it isnt the saddest year in Star Wars history, is that its only really the saddest for the Jedi. The rest of the galaxy were so thoroughly convinced by Palpatine's words that they cheered on the Jedi Order's demise. Truly a dark time.

    @@LegendsLiterature That's the thing, you don't know that, the dark times were not properly fleshed out in the EU before the reboot. What we also do know is that the Empire controlled (almost) the entire known Galaxy for decades while the Vong claimed a vast portion of it for 2 years (some areas for 4) but did not directly affect every planet within their terriroty. Vastly more individuals experienced the Imperial terror than the Vong's (I'd actually say it was the Vong invasion that was felt more locally in specific areas of the Galaxy, in particular where the vongforming was utilised), yet unlike in the NR/NJO era they had far less access to information and contact beyond their home systems. And while it's rearly depicted, it is stated the Imperials were eliminating entire species', the only thing we're lacking is the numbers, that they were covering up anyway. Of course it's not to undermine the latter, the invasion was terryfyingly brutal, it's clear as day in the novels. But in the end it is Palpatine who's the main villan, EU writers never put that into question, thus his rule is supposed to be the darkest day for the Galaxy by design.

    Say Eck, I heard the Rishi Maze might have got a mention in Jedi Survivor. If that’s true, could you do a video on it on that clips channel of yours? Also with all due respect, I’m doubtful that the galaxy will have a new galactic government after Exegol. Even if some of the First Order survives to bide it’s time and even if the Resistance tries to create a new government, there will be serious doubt in a new government after seeing how quickly the New Republic fell after the First Order destroyed Hosnian Prime. What was left of the military was divided up by surviving senators to protect their homes, leaving the rest of the galaxy to get conquered. And despite the Resistance being the first ones to fight the First Order and spearheading the attack on Exegol, it took a fleet of people from all across the galaxy to defeat the Sith Eternal. Basically I’m doubtful people really will have any trust for galactic institutions. They may decide that the galaxy never needed a galactic government and try to live on their own. Maybe some worlds sign alliances recognizing how working together allowed them to defeat a massive enemy, but otherwise there may be no galactic unity. Actually, that would be a cool story for the movie. After all, supposedly this new movie is about Rey rebuilding the Jedi Order, so maybe at the same time her friends from the Resistance are also trying to recreate a new galactic government, but they’re opposed by so many planets who don’t believe in living together anymore. Despite the intentions of these worlds though, there will be serious negative consequences. For one thing, any planet rich enough will be able to create superweapons or massive militaries and attack each other. Planets that are attacked may have allies, but otherwise may get no help unless the attackers prove to be a galactic threat. Maybe surviving members of the First Order manipulate worlds to stay independent of the new government, so that they can slowly take them over by infiltrating their governments. Or just like in the Phantom Menace, the bad guys are going to be corporations who will really thrive in this era. No galactic laws to restrict them. And planets will still be dependent on trade guilds. The happy ending for the movie would not just include the Jedi Order returning to the galaxy, but several worlds change their minds and join the new galactic government to bring the galaxy back to the thousand year peace preceding the Clone Wars.

    Well in current canon around the time of Empire Strikes Back when The Empire was pretty much kicking the shit out of The Rebellion for the most part and by the time they finally catch their breaths they find out about The Death Star II. And apparently there is going to be a droid rebellion in this time frame.

    Abeloth was a nasty piece of work, all right. But we still don't really know what the full range of her powers are, or exactly what the nature of her existence is, so it's hard to really compare her to anyone else. Also, the celestials may well have had good intentions. They do seem to have created The Maw specifically to imprison Abeloth, after all.

    I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Ancient Sith and their knowledge, or lack thereof about the Star Forge! Ajunta Pall alludes quite heavily to the treasure of the Ancient Sith from his era to be the Star Forge, but I have yet to see this referenced anywhere else. I don't believe anyone other than the Rakatta, Revan, and Malak had anything to do with the Star Forge, or even had any knowledge whatsoever about its existence, and yet Pall seems to state otherwise and the Star Map is located within Naga Sadow's tomb, which couldn't have been a coincidence.

You spend the vast majority of your life either in a war or under a tyrannical regime. Sometimes both. Clone Wars 22-19 BBY, The Empire 19-1BBY, First Galactic Civil War 1 BBY-19 ABY, Vong War 25 ABY - 29 ABY, Second Galactic Civil War 41-42 ABY. And probably more I forgot.
