The Republic

The Republic is a newly formed galactic government and democratic union of sovereign systems in control of mostly the Core Worlds and Inner Rims formed from the United Protectorate in wake of very high tensions between the Mandalorians and the Sith Empire and outrage about it. The capital of the Republic is located on Alderaan in it's capital city of Aldera and is governed by the Supreme Chancellor, with Keira Zale taking the role as Acting Supreme Chancellor.

History

Centuries before the Hundred-Years of Darkness five-hundred years ago, the Republic was a democratic government, encompassing many worlds, mainly in the Core Worlds and the Inner Rim with billions of people under it's banner and had a prosperous economy. The Republic had it's challenges and rough times, but during the Hundred-Years of Darkness the Republic fought against the Jedi Exiles alongside the Jedi. The war brought devastation to Republic worlds and suffering war fatigue the Republic pulled out in the later stages of the war, but would not forget it's scars, as many of it's citizens would become very distrustful of Force users as a result.

Years after the Hundred-Years Darkness and during the shadow war between the Exiles and the Jedi following it, the Exiles under Alais Drast, better known as Andraste became the Sith Empire with Andraste as Empress. Eventually the Sith through clever politics, manipulating events, and superior forces; turned the Republic against the Jedi, in the after Jedi's last stand at the Battle of Coruscant after the Jedi Order was defeated, the Republic submited to the Sith Empire, and would then become Imperial Republica, a prefecture of in the greater Sith Empire with the throne on Courscant with a mockery of a senate that was only for show as the Republic ceased to exist.

Five-hundred years later the Imperial Republica (who championed Rule of Drast Blood) and the Old Empire (who championed Rule of the Strong), two Sith Empires declared civil war upon each other. The Mandalorians were revolting and the Jedi were rebuilding themselves in the shadows embedded in the Galactic Alliance. The Imperial Republica suffered defeat after defeat, and after a Kaggath (Sith rite of challenge, duel to the death) between Empress Lyanna Drast and the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Vrael which ended in Lyanna Drast dead and Vrael the victor, the empire would soon be united, although Vrael would not live long enough to enjoy his victory as he was vaporized by explosion by an assasination attempt by the Mand'alor Raz Solus herself.

Varyn Rask became Sith Emperor after Vrael's death. Although united, the Sith Empire still could not halt the Mandalorians growth, who's holdings breached even the Core Worlds. With this, Emperor Varyn was forced to the negotiation table with Mand'alor Raz, who agreed to form the United Protectorate in the former Republica worlds, a joint government maintained by the two to give freedom and safety to the people, although it was still in both faction's shadow.

The United Protectorate was ineffective as an entity for years, until new Sith Empress Aadya Drast came to the planet Mandalore with an armada at her hand, she would bombard the planet and have soldiers purge the planet of Mandalorians indiscriminately, launching huge outcry and sparking Mandalorian retaliation in the form of a Crusade spearheaded by the new Manda'lor Leandros Solous even in United Protectorate worlds that are Sith-aligned. And after Aadya's scandal on planet Atlas, there was major outcry and lost a lot of support.

One Protectorate senator, Keria Zale of Tirahnn, called for the dissolving of the United Protectorate and replacing it with a new and reborn Republic in an emergency meeting to get away from the Mandalorian and Sith influence. With an overwhelming majority of other senators behind her, the vote passed in favor of it, although the Senators of Coruscant and Anaxes, still Imperial-aligned worlds voted nay and wouldn't join. With the vote passed, Senator Zale taking the role of Acting Chancellor of the new Republic with the blessing of the other senators. Now the Republic aims resolves to be a free, democratic union and prosper.

The Army of the Republic

Although a new government, it's not lacking in protection as the planetary defense forces from the member worlds combined can make a sizable force as well as some leftover equipment from dissolution of the Sith Empire; still they don't have the forces that the Sith Empire had in it's prime and lack the inherent military prowess the Mandalorians have, still many citizens are being enlisted to keep their newfound democracy safe.
