- The Mandalorian Wars included some of the bloodiest battles in the Republic's history. Mandalore the Ultimate's relentless campaign to goad the Jedi into open conflict cost the lives of millions. Though the entrance of a Jedi splinter faction into the war is perceived as the factor that turned the tide against the Mandalorians, the perseverance of Republic soldiers and pilots like Carth Onasi cannot be underestimated. Jedi Master Gnost-Dural's historical investigation analyzes the conflict with the perspective of modern events, highlighting the implications for the war against the Sith Empire.
BTC 311 -- Too often, the Mandalorian Wars are characterized solely as a prelude to the Jedi Civil War, but the events surrounding the conflict itself bear close examination. When Mandalore the Ultimate called together the clans and began augmenting his armies further with Neo-Crusaders, his intention was to pull the Jedi Order into open conflict. As is the tradition in their culture, the Mandalorians sought to establish themselves as the most powerful faction in the galaxy by defeating the faction they considered to be their greatest rivals. Though the Jedi Council resisted the Mandalorian challenge, the splinter group led by Revan and Malak eventually joined the fray and won the war. Though there has never been a hint that the Sith were involved in the Mandalorian Wars, new analysis from Jedi Master Gnost-Dural suggests that the influence of the dark side was involved. The bittersweet victory in the Mandalorian Wars took a toll on the Republic for which the price is still being paid to this day...
Watch the latest Timeline holorecord, The Mandalorian Wars narrated by actor Lance Henriksen.

KoTOR Will never die, it's timeless story that Star Wars fans will cherish forever.
"I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming."
"You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business."
Nom Anor and Boba Fett
+Scarecrow I know this old but those are some fantastic quotes.
Goddamn I miss Nom Anor. The EU was uneven, but it was often ambitious
@@SonofSethoitae Nom Anor is a better villain than Snoke and pals
I love NJO anor was such a great villain
They should make a movie about The Mandaloian War
Darth Neo no I think like a Disney plus show
Pls no
Disney ll ruin it
A documentary type of movie could about the mandalorian war would be awesome
Mini series. Or animated like clone wars. Needs to be more morally grey than clone wars though. Honorable but murderous warriors vs corrupt but free republic.
Its fire
I find it interesting that this lore video, which is told from the perspective of a Jedi investigator, failed to mention who and most importantly *why* Revan activated the Mass Shadow Generator during that final battle. Revan's, and by extension the Exile's, descision to activate the Mass Shadow Generator was not simply meant to *only* destroy the Mandalorians. No, Revan's true goal was conversion. Revan created these events, these large-scale massacres to create a new Jedi/Sith order, an order capable of facing the *true* threat to the galaxy: the Ancient Sith Empire. This fact was one of Kotor 2's best contributions to Kotor's lore as a whole; Revan's true goals during the Mandalorian War questions whether Revan truly fell to the dark side and if instead they merely harnessed its potential for a greater good, for the galaxay's survival against its true enemy.
IMAGINE having all this lore and events already written for you and you Disney decide to make the dumpster fire that is the new trilogy
No need to imagine what has already been done.
ya and the trash fire that was the TV show the Mandalorian and the Book of Boba Fett. UTTER trash! Sooooo bad! All this history and lore to go on with the best warriors in the galaxy and what do they do.....Make up a bunch of PG random shit that makes 0 sense and say here you go, isn't this what you wanted? As well as making the Mandalorians look hoky and weak in the mean time. God Disney sucks soooo much dic. Oh and btw, FK grogu! that little green shit! He is legit worse than Rey....if that's even possible
Who cares, this is the tru canon and the true Star Wars
Blow me
Four minutes and one second that rocks harder than the entirety of the sequels.
I wish they made the Mando Wars its own game. Choosing which to play as.
I think that would be a good idea
***** That'd be great, that or have Kotor 3 take place when Meetra Surik (The exile from Kotor 2) saves Revan and tries to overthrow the emperor with him. Then you could swap between the two main characters of each game lol.
@@stormeth4624 that would be great I’m still sad we never got KOTOR 3
Thanks Admiral Hackett.
This actually Raiden fro the first mortal Kombat movie aka Harry Morgan.
Every time I watch that episode of Rebels where Kanan tells Sabine, "The Jedi won the war with Mandalore," I always say the same thing. That I have a *really* hard time calling the people that won that war "Jedi."
All hail Revan, the true dark lord of the Sith!
All hail Revan, the true master of the Jedi. The only one strong enough to defeat the Sith Emperor
LukioAdoGaming Lol, what?? The Emperor wrecked his shit easily in every encounter they had.
then you didn't read his story good enough
How so?
AJ Rice lmao revan would force the emperor to be his apprentice
I still believe that Revan and Malak were in the right when they went against the jedi council to fight the mandalorians. But then again that's probably why i like the dark side/sith so much :D
The jedi in general are idiots they fail to see past there judgment that's why they always fail and Die. they are cut off from the universe entirely.just old fools watching the world burn
Whoever wrote this Mandalorian War must have had zero understanding of modern warfare. However, the Disney Canon version of the Mando war with "the fall of the Old Republic" was even worse. If this war was written realistically, the Republic Navy should have mopped up the Mandalorian in 5 years, and Revan's actions should have been Revan's folly.
@@thanghoang3198
How exactly? From my understanding, the Mandalorians had a massive army and had conquered a lot of the Outer Rim, fueling and repairing their fleet.
The Republic had more resources, true, but their army was getting their butt kicked all the same. It's basically what happened in Rome against the Huns, or England against the Vikings.
@@juanlaise1059 "modern warfare", period
@@thanghoang3198
Care to explain your reasoning "modern warfare"?
The basics of war never change, no matter the era. Army, Industry, Technology, Training, Lands, Economy, Politics, Alliances. All those are assets that matter in war, any war. Modern warfare is the same.
Revan fighting in the mandalorian wars? I smell a future prequel, that would be so awesome to play as revan again.
But... Revan didn't activate the Mass Shadow Generator. The Exile did.
He gave the order of activation, Exile obeyed.
That’s Meetra Surik to you
The details of the Battle of Malachor V are sort of hazy, it's possible the Order doesn't know it was the Exile, and assumes Revan must have done it
These archives aren't 100% accurate, which kind of makes sense. There is details missing in the Exar Kun and KOTOR one and probably all the others
Exactly, Revan was fighting Mandalore..
Revan embraced the Dark Side in order to save the Republic, not to destroy it. He never assaulted Republic worlds that were vital to its survival, he sought to assimilate the Republic into his empire so that, when the True Sith would attack, he could repell them. Period.
This would be a fantastic movie or series
What happened was the weapon drew upon the gravity of malachor and its planets. Almost every ship in both fleets was drawn in to the planet or vaporized by the intensive heat. Those on foot were also vaporized. The planet was rendered completely uninhabitable those being labeled as destroyed basically. Bao-dur made the weapon but wasn't killed in the blast nor in kotor 2 because you have the choice of making him a jedi. But anyway thousands died in the end.
The amount of genocides the Jedi have committed in the KOTOR timeline is disturbing. I know their enemies were viscous but the Jedi are supposed to be a force for the light. Great writing. Really shows the alliance between the republic and the Jedi really wasn’t good for their faction especially after the end when the Sith survive and create the Rule of Two.
Wait, what genocide did the Jedi commit here?
@@jamiengo2343 I think the destruction of Malachor V can be considered a genocide, but then again maybe he was referring about the Great Sith Purge which the Jedi spearheaded.
@@Imperial_Remnant can it really? I mean seriously can Malachor be counted as a genocide? If so it was a poorly executed one considering the fact that the Republic and Jedi also lost thousands of troops and hundreds of ships as well
haven´t you heard about serroco? or dxun? the genocide was commited by the mandalorians, but now people think they´re good just because one of them took a little green goblin as his child...
@@deiquimera9445 correct
am I the only one who thinks Carth Onassi looks like Tony Stark in this?
Or Tony stark looks like Carth Onassi.
Gruntasor Aww, like there might be some ancestral connection?
My mentors are new age jedi, Anakin and Mace Windu. I mastered both their techniques and became one of the strongest jedi in star wars galaxies, even making a hacker retreat and decline a duel challenge after it took him and 5 others to bring me down... Revan also is whom I was based off of in combat and knowledge of the force, Kiera is demented and deluded.
@NEMESIS1999 Actually it's already been placed in Revan's story that he never actually fell to the darkside but became a shadow of it to find seek and end a greater evil and threat than the sith. becoming darklord was just a master plan/part to fool everyone of his real intentions
It was the exile who activated the superweapon during the battle of Malachor V
Surik received the order from Revan, and gave the nod of approval to Bao-Dur.
I believe Kreia said something about that when you gain enough influence with her and talk to her about Revan and the Mandalorian Wars.
It's amazing that they even mentioned Carth. Still, it'd be nice if the Exile got a mention. Usually they only mention her to appease the fangirls who are still bitter over the general being the male and one of his lackeys being the female.
Pretty sure even on a Female playthrough of KOTOR 2, you were still a General in Revan’s army; third only to Malak
Mandalorians are such badasses..
Mandalorians are not the spartans of SW they are the MANDALORIANS of SW
NO-ONE DARES TO TOUCH THEM! Unleash gra'tua cuun for all who challenge us!
Le' ColoredLetters the spartans, are the mandalorians of our world lol
Honestly, the jedi order of this era needed to be wiped out. Too much corruption, the Jedi Covenant for example, the high council was unsure what to do, the Jedi civil war, so many dark siders. Remember when the surviving members of the council nearly killed Meetra? This order needed a "cleansing," and while I am no supporter of the sith, the Jedi order had it coming really.
The Era between 3996 Aby - 3954 is some of the most dark lore in Star Wars history imo, and some of the best lore I have ever learned about in any sci-fi series.
I totally agree with you. It's even darker than the events between the revenge of the sith and new hope. It was also the start of the first jedi purge.
2:48 "He then activated a super weapon which destroyed an entire planet"
This is exactly what it is said, and we also see an image of said planet afterward. But indeed, it also says that it destroyed the mandalorian armies and thousands or Republic troops.
2:48 A weapon which destroyed an entire planet? Thousands of years before the Death Star?
Well, it seems like that when you reach intergalactic travel, technology just doesn't progress anymore.
There is mention of technological advancements in the Star Wars timeline, but they don't seem that great, mostly improvements to things that already exist, such as making hyperspace travel faster, improving energy consumption, among other things.
Still, the way in which the Mass Shadow Generator worked was vastly different to the Death Star. The MSG produced a very strong gravitational force that shattered the planet and pulled almost all the ships that were too close to Malachor V, crushing them and killing everyone.
I am going to play The Old Republic once I finish playing KOTOR. What class should I pick when I create my character? I love the Mandalorian culture, especially the Mandalorian Civil War and the Republic Commando heritage.
Raul Mejia Bounty Hunter. You get to become a mandalorian later.
Samuel Gillies Really? That sounds neat. In that case, BH it is.
Raul Mejia I know this is old but Ive played every class, not to completion, but enough of every class to say my personal favorite storyline was the sith inquisitor. Every chapter just felt like they blended smoothly, and you get into some really interesting dark shit.
Well unless u have the real money to buy mandalorian armor in game then I suggest bounty hunter but any class can RP as a mandalorian accept sorcerers that's imp side obviously. If you do join the Jung Ma server I am the Leader of Clan Ordo character name is Shartravice if u wish to join
Raul Mejia I hope you finished KOTOR 2 too
Glad they haven't forgotten about KOTOR 2.
It's a possibility. There's not a lot of info on Yoda's race, just examples of them existing. Very, very little in terms of their lore and history. Mysterious species indeed.
i HOPE they put all these into 1 video. i would definately buy it
I want ea to make a battlefront game set during the mandalorian wars
Why the fuqq EA?
No you don’t
EA??
Well at the time, EA had an exclusivity deal so I didn't think I had a choice, now I just want it made lol.
@TheAlinAngel I'd really doubt he foresaw malak betraying revan.
If you played darkside in KotoR 1, you found out alot about this during the training on korriban. The sith will bow to another only if they KNOW their 'master' is stronger than they are. They rule by power. If one sith, of ANY rank saw an oppertunity to advance, be it a random govenor, Malak, or a sith soldier, they would exploit their superiors weak point and try to destroy them.
And again from KotoR1. Bastila said it....
You make this interesting to learn. Thank you
they really need to make the old kotor 1 and 2 into books or movies. when i play it i cant tell which parts are cannon or fannon and it ends up confusing me in the end
Mandalorians are badass
anyone else notice that if the council had listened to them they would have informed them of the knowledge they got from the Mandalore regarding the Sith preventing them from going alone stoping their decent to the darkside preventing kotor 1/2 and accelerating swtor with less casualties
@50robin6 They were forced to because malak slagged Dantooine's academy.
They made dantooine secret if coruscant got attacked yes, but after a jedi who went evil (Read: Malak) knew about it, and blew it (mostly) up.
So out of desperation they had to move it back.
My favorite planet from KOTOR was Taris. I can't wait to go back there in this game! :)
@hotshot10100t
It was said on KoTOR 1 that the council on Dantooine was the one who warned revan not to go into battle with the Mandalorians so it only makes since that is master dorak and if you look closely all four of the Jedi Masters from KoTOR 1 are in that picture Master Dorak Master Vandar Mastor Jork (sorry if i spelled his name wrong) and Master Vrook. All of them are in that frame shot in this timeline
In the new clone wars season the should walk past a statue of darth reven in a mandalorian helmet easily making the mandalorian war and the old republic cannon
I love this game.
Somebody should make a Mandalorian Wars video game
First Last f that, we need a movie about this
KOTOR
@Kamikazeesouled There is some things even the greatest of teachers do not know..in this case Kreia
Kreia was by far the greatest teacher and after playing kotor 1-2 20+ times she is still my greatest teacher.
nothing makes me more excited for a game then a slideshow...
Jeez a comment from 2010, how ya holding up these days
Exar Kun had nothing to do with the Mandalorian Wars; he was mostly a late comer in the war that preceded it!
The Krath Holy Crusade and the Great Sith War are considered separate conflicts. Exar Kun was, along with Ulic Qel-Droma, the instigator of the latter, not a latecomer.
how come there is always a yoda-like creature on every jedi council? WHY?
Once his species finds out that one of them are force sensitive then they are exiled usually to the jedi.
@TheAlinAngel lol.
I dunno, the strive to have more power than everyone else is bad for the sith as a whole, but as a singular person, its immensely powerful.
Thats exactly why Bane created the rule of 2 thing, so there was only 2 sith to worry about their power becoming unchecked.
Give it up for Lance Henriksen, badass voice actor extraordinaire.
I really miss waiting for this to come out.
If you played star wars knights of the old republic for XBOX or PC you should understand some back ground of Reaven and Malak, and Carth. sick twist near the end of the game too
favorite mandalorian would have to be kelborn or candorus ordo
STARCOM CLAN Canderous Ordo wasn't a real Mandalorian ( for me )
Great video, i just have one problem...
2:15
I'm about 100% sure mace windu wasn't alive during the mandolorian wars, and the archivist-dude was on Dantooine.
Boba fett was a mandolorian right?
jo
Yes
Not anymore
@50robin6 "They were forced to because malak slagged Dantooine's academy" @ The Coruscant Council/Academy.
@"They made dantooine secret if coruscant got attacked yes, but after a jedi who went evil (Read: Malak) knew about it, and blew it (mostly) up." @ Why they had the academy in the first place on dantooine/ Why it got moved in Kotor 2.
dont you remember in Kotor 1 when malak said they allready destroyed the academy on Dantooine/ Kotor 2 when you go back to dantooine and pilfer the ruins?
@CommonSense8102 You are confusing the Mandalorian Wars and the Great Galactic War that leads to the Treaty of Coruscant, they are two completely seperate wars that are 300 years apart. The Timeline even states that The Emperor had no part of Mandalorian Wars, it just set the stage for the fall of Revan and Malak
only just started playing SWTOR, i loved KOTOR 1 and 2, have always wanted to see the trilogy ended. We see the legacy of Revan, why not the Exile's as well? And for the love of Kad'Harangir, GIVE US MORE MANDOS!
Ah, KotOR. Such brilliance.
2:48, Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it Bao Dor (misspelling) that activated the Mass Shadow Generator?
Yeah, but Revan ordered it. Bao-Dur is a no-name engineer in grand scheme of things.
@kamikazeesouled well that is what bioware is saying revan and malek met the emperor and was sent by him to find the star forge
i always wondered about the war previous to the kotor always wished they would tell me more.
Only now did I realise maul was attempting to recreate this during the clone wars in order to eventually defeat sidious or rule by his masters side
Bois Kanan said this history in just a sentence!
Of course they leave out the mass butchery of the Cathar, can't go offending Mando fanboys with inconvenient truths.
MrBranagain That reminds me but why did they do that anyways.
Because they're basically space ISIS, trying to goad the Republic into war. When Revan found a Mando helmet at the site of the Cathar massacre, that was when he decided the Jedi and Republic needed to take the kid gloves off.
MrBranagain ah I see none the less I'm still impressed with the fact they nearly beat the republic. Then I take great pleasure in watching the republic getting beat.
if they made these independent movies starting fromt he great hyperspace war to atleast the jedi wars 'revan & malak' it would make so mutch money and indulge the casual fans in star wars lore
White Fang Ive been begging forever for a movie that doesnt revolve around the newest timeline, something that takes place in the days of the old republic.
Funny how the newest timeline is 'long ago'
I wouldn't mind finishing the series off with a trilogy.
3:06 I hear Anakin's betrayl :)
The narrator's voice sounds familiar. I believe it's Lance Henriksen.
the voice actor for Admiral Steve Hackett of Mass Effect games too?
Daniel Williamson wasn't he also Bishop the Android from Aliens?
Yes he was.
Daniel Williamson It is. He fits perfectly in a narrative history video.
Is it just me, or did SWTOR stop adding time-lines. I thought they were going to have the latest one by Launch, but we are still several behind. We have the character progressions, ships, everything but this? Did Bioware forget about the precious timelines?
@allankles It is just to provide a quick general overview of the mandalorian wars its not ment to go into details about every specific person who had an impact on the war
If you were a Jedi would you have joined Revan Malek or obeyed the council.
Joined Revan.
But that's just because I know my personality.
OMG MY FAV LEGENDARY HERO FROM KOTOR!!
EXAR KUN!!
Does anybody know where you find these entries is it in game or elsewhere?
i already saw this on the website but its still awesome :D
mandalore the ultimate wasn't human he was a Taung who evolved on Coruscant. for century's they fought humans. but thanks to a volcano most of Coruscant was covered in ash. the humans drove the Taung from their home world and they became mandalorans though the fighting at Malachor V spelled the end of the race when the war ended to day the species is extinct
starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Taung
The taung was the founding race, but the mandalorians have many species.
its not Revan activated it but EXILE MEETRA SURIK thats why she cut herself thru force. cause she heard every scream who died AT
@NEMESIS1999 Mandalore (Canderous) said that in KotOR2 if you get 90% influence with him
@Gthang213 If it is, then thats a very odd place for him to be, as the council wasnt on Coruscant (the background of that picture is the jedi temple), and a *very* used amount of artistic licence.
Why doesn't Lucasfilm make a spin-off movie about this instead of a rumored Yoda movie.
WTF is that Lance Henriksen voice?
a kotor 3 would have been so much better. im not a huge fan for mmos, but i feel this is going to be great too.
@50robin6 But thats the point though, he wouldent be there unless dantooine was gone already.
You would think a chronicler would stay with his library.
@TheRealSimsMaster A long time after, yes. About 300 years if I'm not mistaken.
@ThomasPianecz the guy on 1:37 is carth onasi
KOTOR 1 was great, while KOTOR 2 was rushed. I say play them, as you can get them at a low price or free if you are creative/cheap.
Lol, Jedi Master Gnost Dural has the same voice as General Shepherd from Modern Warfare 2...
Man I would’ve liked carth way more if he looked like that in game
@abstract37 Nah Revan turned Carth's son back to the light
good !
Ya I forgot about blowing that planet up. I thought there was just Mandalorian murderers on it if I only knew about the Republic Troops and my Jedi brothers and sisters.
So, your saying that your a jedi, if so then you killed my mandalorian brothers and now I'm go in to take what's yours, and crush it.
Expressionless The Jedi way is peace but my Jedi way is bring it and you will not survive..
@Mastad9006 which is why i was a bit confused/annoyed if they were being lazy or not.
*Hears the narrator:*
Admiral Hackett?!!
@TheAlinAngel "What better weapon is there than to turn an enemy to your cause?"
lol the guy on 1:37 looks like a journalist with a gun
was that yoda?? when there talking about the councils refusal to enter the war.
the mandalorians are the spartans of star wars xDDDDDDDDDDD
They can't. Bioware and EA control the rights of the KOTOR series. And it's pointless because of the Revan book which already explains what happens to Revan
@bakingevan It's just backstory for those who are interested. If you've played the KotOR games, you should be.
I’m ready for tomorrow
