#STAR WARS RESISTANCE SERIES#

Following the Mission to Sibensko, Leia was partially vindicated when she discovered evidence that a paramilitary faction called the Amaxine warriors was colluding with Rinnrivin Di's cartel to overthrow the Republic. Leia Organa had formerly been an influential member of the New Republic Senate, but lost almost all credibility with the legislature and was forced to resign following the public revelation of her father having been Darth Vader. She urged the Republic to take the threat of the First Order seriously once it arose, but was considered a warmonger. Princess Leia Organa, who had been one of the leaders of the Rebel Alliance during the war, argued strongly against the demilitarization policies and said that the Republic could not trust that the Empire would honor the peace. Meanwhile, the Republic carried out the demilitarization of the New Republic Defense Fleet, cutting down on much of its military force in the interest of pursuing peace and preventing a galactic war from ever occurring again. After the signing of the treaty, the Imperial starfleet disappeared into the Unknown Regions, where they quietly formed the First Order from the ashes of the Empire.

The once-powerful Empire signed a peace treaty with the Republic called the Galactic Concordance, which mandated that they keep the peace with the Republic and remain inside predetermined borders within the Core Worlds and the Inner Rim. The Resistance was founded by General Leia Organa, a hero of the Rebel Alliance, to monitor the actions of the First Order.Īt the end of the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire suffered their final defeat against the New Republic during the Battle of Jakku.

It's time for the Resistance to rise.' ―Leia Organa ' The sun is setting on the New Republic.

#STAR WARS RESISTANCE SERIES#

The victory of the Resistance inspired the people to rise up against the First Order, whose military rule crumbled under a series of attacks. Meanwhile, Rey sacrificed herself to destroy the Sith Lord, though she was resurrected by Ben Solo, who gave his life force to save hers. Together with the Citizens' Fleet, the Resistance defeated the Sith Eternal forces at Exegol. When former Emperor Darth Sidious revealed himself to be alive and bolstered by the Sith Eternal's armada of planet-destroying warships, the Final Order, the Resistance invaded the Sith redoubt at the Battle of Exegol.

With the help of the last Jedi, Luke Skywalker, and his apprentice Rey, the Resistance escaped the First Order's siege at Crait and lived to fight another day. The Resistance initially stood as a check against the First Order, but opposed them in open warfare when they moved in to seize military control of the galaxy. General Organa recruited veterans of the Galactic Civil War, like Admiral Gial Ackbar and other New Republic military personnel like New Republic officer Poe Dameron, while many others joined the Resistance as officers, soldiers, pilots, and in other roles. While still a Republic senator, Princess Organa founded the Resistance after she was sidelined from the Senate following a scandal that revealed her father to be the reviled Darth Vader. Members of the Resistance shared General Organa's views regarding the threat posed by the First Order. The Resistance was founded by General Leia Organa and was modelled to an extent on the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Yet despite their initial stand alone, the freedom fighters of the Resistance inspired rebellion all across the galaxy, and a Citizens' Fleet eventually assembled to reinforce them, sparking an uprising against the First Order. The Resistance fought against the First Order in a new galactic war after the First Order decapitated the New Republic in a surprise attack in 34 ABY and subsequently occupied large swathes of the galaxy. Unlike the New Republic Senate, the Resistance believed that the First Order posed a serious threat to peace and democracy in the galaxy. The Resistance emerged as an unauthorized military movement from the New Republic Defense Force during the Cold War. The Resistance was a private military force and resistance movement that opposed the First Order, a military dictatorship that arose from the Galactic Empire.
