A
Brief History of the JEDI REPUBLIC; PART VI
The Clone Wars lasted many, many years, but
finally, two generations after its start, the
Clone Wars ended as suddenly as they had begun.
In a reletivly small battle, the high officials
from the Confederacy were killed and the war was
won.
After the end of the war, the Senate asked
Palpatine to hand down his powers and retire in
glorious victory.
Palpatine had other plans.
During the many battles of the Clone Wars,
Palpatine was slowly seduced by the Dark Side.
In secret meetings he met with Sith Lords and
plotted the demise of the Republic, and his rise
as Emperor of the galaxy.
The Republic was doomed.
In one quick raid, Palpatine's Royal guards
stormed the Senate Chambers and arrested all the
senators. They were later executed, and
Palpatine announced to the galaxy that the
Republic was no more.
In its place he created the Empire. An evil
government with harsh restrictions and a simple
way of keeping control. If you refuse you die.
This method was very efficient and fear kept the
planets in line. Fear of the massive battleships
called Star Destroyers that Palpatine had
constructed immediately following his rise as
Emperor.
The rise of the Empire also brought about the
near genocide of the Jedi. Palpatine ordered
that his biggest threat, the Jedi, be sought out
and exterminated. And so began the Dark Times.
Thousands upon thousands of Jedi were murdered
by Palpatine and his Sith Aids. Very few Jedi
escaped the Dark Times alive, including Master
Yoda, who survived the Dark Times on the planet
Dagobah. Yoda used a cave where a Sith Knight
had died to mask himself against detection. The
Dark energies emited by the cave cancelled out
his Light Force energy. This is how Yoda
survived the Dark Times. We know now that many
others lived, including the Jedi Master Echuu
Shen-Jon.
There was hope for the galaxy yet...
A New Hope, COMING SOON....... |
