      There was a comic with vader coming to punish sereno. Bring it back under imperial control.
      Vader ordered the deaths of all the political leadership and had their children do the deed , or all would be executed. And pledge their loyalty to the empire afterwards.

    A Capital is a location that has cultural heart for a government, perhaps it’s has a massive industrial complex that could supply refine resources for its people, or perhaps it geographical location is in the core territory of the government for its easy logistical support, or maybe it was simply the most important military structure that cannot be lost. So really many of these aspects could easier fit in the Raxus System importance in the Confederacy existence.

    One of these worlds is a Filoni retcon that had to be integrated into EU. All other examples include Aleen Minor, Skako Minor, Malachor, and probably many more. Instead of sticking to existing descriptions of planets they redesigned them. Then some EU writer had to keep continuity going by duplicating planets.

    Everyone who reads this, first of all I want to apologize. On that, the biggest peeve that I have with any of these historical reviews is the mentioning of the time periods, i.e. 25,000 BBY, 300 BBY, 100 ABY, et cetera. I wish that the Republic/Empire would have had a more centralized form of calendar including months and dates, and it can be correlated via Coruscant, as that world served as the central authority world for both the Republic and the Empire. But outside of that, PLEASE continue with these fine clips, because I REALLY enjoy them. Thanks.

    The Tion Cluster deserved better. The systems there should not remained inside the Republic against their wills. Speaking of which, will the Separatists be allowed to secede peacefully if Palpatine did not intentionally mess things up as part of his plan to turn the Republic into the Empire?

      You can thank the hutts for that.
      They raced a good chunk of the Tion cluster to the ground so many fled into the arms for protection and hope for a better life.
      It’s only by the time of the clone wars the hutts grew too fat and lazy to be a threat that the idea of Tion became reinvigorated

    So something occurred to me, if Raxus Secundus is the capital of the Confederacy of Independent Systems aka Separatist Alliance then how was the Republic able to send a strike force to Raxus Prime during the Dark Reaper Crisis if they are in the same system ?
    In the Clone Wars game I believe the strike force goes there early enough that the Republic Navy doesn’t have Venators. And the strike force is only made up of one or two Acclimators to land the troops. So if we consider that, how did Anakin and Obi Wan not be concerned that they’d be attacked by any fleet that would be protecting the Seperatist capital ?

    • @justjoking5841
      @justjoking5841 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It could have been part of a larger scale distraction, as some form of rapid strike force. The battles on Raxus Prime could not have been more than a couple hours at most.
      Dooku was there and the Force Harvester. I'd say that warrants some form of assault opportunity.
      In the game, the GAR was ambushed and decimated, and its suggested Obi Wan is one of the few survivors, after Anakin is taken prisoner.
