New Republic

The New Republic

Origins
The New Republic rose from the victory secured during the Battle of Endor, its era coming a generation after the Clone Wars fought between the Separatist Alliance and the Old Republic, and a generation before the Resistance against the First Order. The resurgent Republic followed the Galactic Civil War, though would see dark times to come.

Jakku and the Galactic Concordance
A year after the victorious Battle of Endor, the New Republic fought in the Battle of Jakku, and smashed the Imperial Starfleet. Downed weapons of war from both sides of the conflict littered Jakku's surface, and were scavenged over the years to come.

R2-D2 was modified and upgraded by New Republic technicians, as he had been by Rebel Alliance techs previously, during the period of the resurgent Republic before what he considered to be the dark times. He would later recall seeing Leia Organa smiling as she nursed Ben Solo] in this period, as [[Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca watched on.

Rise of the First Order
The generation following the Battle of Jakku saw the First Order rise, and the Resistance fight to oppose it. As of this period, Chancellor Villecham led the Republic, though some believed him to be a hypocrite, and refused to consider him their chancellor.

Politics
"Believe me, Captain, you don't have to lecture me on the hypocrisy of the Villecham's leadership. Not my Chancellor."

- Ardanna Glie, to Grummgar

The New Republic was led by a Chancellor, such asVillecham. Some disagreed with Villecham's leadership, accusing him of hypocrisy. Its government contained bureaucrats capable of being convinced by seductive females.

Defense
The New Republic Starfleet was mostly stationed in the Hosnian system, although kept the peace well enough that pirates and smugglers were considered things of the past.

Astrography
New Republic space contained the Hosnian system and Hosnian Prime, as well as other worlds including Bar'leth. Takodana and Ponemah Terminal existed beyond this border, though transit and safe passage was easily secured between these worlds and New Republic territory.

Education
"Not all females of my species are sex workers. And besides, after all that effort I went in applying for a research grant from the New Republic Historical Council for travel expenses, I would feel horribly unethical not putting it to its proper use."

- Ardanna Glie, to Grummgar

The New Republic Historical Council gave research grants to its students. Ardanna Glie, a Twi'lek graduate of the University of Bar'leth, secured one such grant to study the ancient ruins left by an extinct civilization on Dantooine, Tatooine, Manaan, Kashyyyk, and Rakata Prime.

Entertainment and pastimes
Beings of the galaxy could enjoy circuses and big game hunting preserves during the New Republic era. Rancors were a common sight as circus animals, pets of the ultra-rich, terror-beasts used by crime lords, or occupants of preserves maintained by wealthy hunters who preferred not to leave the safety of the Republic.

Philosophy and ethics
Some individuals such as the big game hunter Grummgar believed members of the Republic spouted nonsensical feminist views, and argued over the subject with Ardanna Glie, who accused him of misogynistic opinions.
