So far there had not been any Sith appearances in the High Republic (although an ancient Sith Lord could be featured in issue 7 of the High Republic comic series, as hinted by a variant cover). Unfortunately, it only took the true identity of Leia’s father to trash these principles and split the New Republic into two factions who deeply distrusted one another. Mon Mothma and Leia were both war heroes who had lost so much in their fight against the Empire, and they wanted to rebuild a democracy that that was not based on a single person, but where every planet and system had their own voice that was heard equally. She simply did what she thought was best for the galaxy and the people trusted her. ![]() Unlike many politicians who would come after her, it seemed that Lina Soh did not need intrigue or political backstabbing to rule the galaxy. It could take its time to heal its wounds, oblivious to a new enemy that was getting stronger day by day. The New Republic, on the other hand, had just defeated it biggest nemesis and was now seemingly free to recover. The threat of the Nihil might grow into such a foe, but they are not at that level as of yet. For now it seemed that the Republic was not facing a major enemy as the Separatists or the Empire. The story of the High Republic was still quite young and we do not know what threats will be presented in future publications. Of course, this would change only a few years later. Now that this Empire had been defeated and the Sith seemingly gone, those who survived the Galactic Civil War struggled to rebuild democracy and peace.Īfter the Rebel Alliance had finally defeated the remnants of the Empire at the Battle of Jakku, and the Galactic Concordance was signed, the leaders of the New Republic too saw no need to keep an enormous war machine that would only remind the citizens of the cruel past they wanted to leave behind. On the other hand, we had a galaxy that had been living under the tyranny of an evil Empire with its gigantic war machine, ruled by two merciless Sith Lords who would not hesitate to wipe out entire planets. On one hand, we had a galaxy at its peak, growing and prospering, with thousands of Jedi available to protect it. ![]() ![]() At first glance it appeared that the High Republic and the New Republic could not be further apart. The time gap between these two eras of Star Wars may only be a little over 300 years, only a blink in the overall timeline. To date, this is the most direct connection between the High Republic and the New Republic. They were searching for the Jedi Outpost from the time of the High Republic. In the second issue of The Rise of Kylo Ren, Lor San Tekka traveled to the world of Elphrona in the Outer Rim together with Luke Skywalker and his nephew Ben Solo, roughly a decade after Return of the Jedi.
