  • Senator Mon Mothma is usually seen as a background character in the original and prequel trilogies, but she's played an incredibly important role in guaranteeing the survival of the rebellion. Without her the Galactic Civil War would've ended very differently.

    Given how the New Republic went in Disney Canon I almost wish Mothma had the same fate as Legends just to keep her from being responsible for the NR's many failures. (TLDR: an Imperial agent poisons her by throwing a drink laced with nanobots in her face during a peace meeting. She survived but was weakened to the point she could no longer hold office. )

Within a few decades you had new generations that grew up after the galactic civil war and treated individuals like Leia as war mongerers. It’s similar to how Europe was in between wwi and wwii.

      @@GenerationTech I get your point and comparison, but the in-between WWI and WWII was a bit different
      In both cases it was a continuation of the previous war, that much is true but for different reasons
      The Germans were punished too severely after WWI having to pay a big amount of gold, lost a seventh of their land and other things
      WWII and Hitlers rise to power was because the German people were sick of it and the Allies (mainly Brittain) took a bit of pity and allowed the Germans to rise up again and reclaim their former glory with the hopeful intention Germany could be an ally and a trading partner
      I don't know if this also happened in the books or comics but in the movies none of that is mentioned
      From what I understand is that the First Order is just a remnant faction of the Empire and is out for war and to reclaim the galaxy just for the heck of it, not because of some 'unreasonable' punishments or anything like that

      Ironically the Death Star united the entire Galaxy against Palpatine. When Tarkin destroyed Alderaan, he made it glaringly obvious that the Empire was a genocidal regime that posed a real danger to the public. The Rebel Alliance swelled with new recruits and the Imperial military faced widespread acts of sedition, defection and petty sabotage. Armed resistance had become a matter of survival.v

    I thought Mon Mothma wanted to hit the archive on Scariff because she realized what devastatingly effective weapon of terror the Death Star was, but she couldn't get a conscience and the rules she was working under didn't allow her to launch such a large attack unilaterally. Once Jyn got the ball rolling, Mon was able to send support to a battle already underway.

    Mon Mothma is both a hindrance and a helper to the Alliance. On one hand, she's entirely right to want things to change, and takes action to do so. But on the other, she wants to restore the Republic, a corrupt, broken institution. Despite having lived through countless years of Republic beauracracy, and seeing all those it failed to help along the way, she wanted it back. And it turned out the same way.

    It sucks that Mon Mothma in Disney Star Wars chose to restore the Old Republic in the wrong way aka returning it back to its terrible status quo pre-Palpatine and making it worse than before. While in EU Legends, the New Republic was truly a breath of fresh air that it managed to stand strong and prove itself to be a better successor than the Old Republic.

      @stevenbaumann5911 Před rokem +14

      That is debatable. The Old Republic lasted over 25,000 YEARS. The New Republic didn't even last a century in Legends. The New Republic was grossly incompetent when it at war with the Vong. Then after the defeat of Darth Cadus, it ceased being called the Republic and became the Alliance.

    • @ILLEGOmaniac
      @ILLEGOmaniac Před rokem +15

      The New Republic in Legends lasted only 20-ish years up to the Yuuzhan Vong: after the fall of Coruscant it disintegrated, and a new successor state was formed, the GFFA (Galactic Alliance), as a merger of the anti-Vong states and with a new form of government (e.g. a formal ministerial role for Jedi).
      Legends, inspired by the post-Soviet wars of the 1990s, consistently painted the NR as a flawed democracy undermined by ethnic tensions: aliens mistrusted humans, imagining them to be equivalent to the speciesist Imperials (not entirely wrong, as many Imperials defected to keep their power; and Luke and Leia turned out to be Vader's kids - to some nonhumans, the Empire/Alliance conflict appeared to be a purely intra-human political issue). In localities like Corellia, Koornacht and Bakura, the NR's legitimacy came under strain as cultural groups and species mistrusted each other and carried old grudges into democracy with them; at central level, events like the X-Wing series' nonhuman plague (I forget the name) and the Bothan/Camaasi crisis all undermined credibility of various key Rebellion-era cultures.
      Then, when the Vong arrived, their militarily inferior forces was able to conquer Coruscant so easily precisely because they sent advance agents to scout out simmering tensions, and stoke the existing ethnic rivalries to pull apart the Republic from within. Finally the victorious GFFA was formed precisely by and from the one truly multiethnic and meritocratic force in the galaxy, the only one effectively resisting: the Jedi.
      Personally I find that a far more interesting political background to the cartoonish crisis of democracy portrayed in Disney canon (as well as the dull obsession with superweapons and superpowers that other Legends authors focussed on). But anyone who thinks Legends NR was a strong, stable and noble democracy wasn't really paying attention.

    • @eddieram435
      @eddieram435 Před rokem +6

      Wrong...Even in the EU the Republic had many issues and it wasn't no beacon of hope as it lacked the centralized institutions that kept the Empire running on a day to day basis. They experienced plenty of unrest, aggressive alien advances in backwater worlds, the Empire remnants and their fleets wreaking havoc on NR systems, Thrawn, and the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy that crippled them. I'm so glad the EU stepped out of the bubble to also indicate the NR was weak and decentralized holding on a significant portion of the Galaxy. Authors decided to step out of the bubble of George Lucas' (black and white OT events) and portray both sides for having both great and bad people. Also another EU flaw is that the main Star Wars cast behaved like a Justice League (even with the fact that the main OT characters acted pretty much like that) during that era.

    Mon Mothma was a bigger threat to the galaxy than the rebel terrorists claimed that our beloved Emperor was .
    Let's not forget that the Galactic Senate was severely corrupt , some people might even describe it as evil .
    The Galactic Senate directly caused the the Clone Wars , and many other major problems for the Republic .
    And who exactly was a major member of that corrupt Senate ?
    Mon Mothma !!!!
    And when she lost the power that she craved , she started a civil war .
    Emperor Palpatine had just put a end to a Separatist War , and almost immediately Mon Mothma started another one .
    She was the leader of a terrorist army that openly declared war on the citizens of the galaxy .
    She directly ordered the deaths of millions of loyal Imperials .
    She wanted the Emperor dead so that she could have his power for herself .
    As soon as Emperor Palpatine died she immediately assumed control of the galaxy and 30 years later ( according to the sequel trilogy ) she still had control .
    Mon Mothma was no hero , she was in fact the biggest threat that the galaxy had ever seen .
    I ask one question of anyone who disagrees .
    How many times did Mon Mothma times did she actually pick up a blaster and engage the " enemy " herself ?
    The answer is none , she sent others to die so that she could fulfill her endless hunger for power .

    Cool videos. It would help if you do not change your tone of voice while narrating. The sound of a few words get really low, which increases the effor to understand what you are saying.
