Old Republic (SWRP)

The Republic, commonly known as the Old Republic in the centuries after its fall, was a galactic trade and political union that covered the Core Worlds through parts of the Inner Rim for thousands of years. The Republic governed in relative peace for over ten thousand years, before the rift in the Jedi Order that led to the rise of the Sith Empire and the Hundred-Year Darkness. This was the beginning of many wars between the Republic and the Sith Empire, with the Jedi Knights fighting to end the wars with the Sith alongside the Republic. After the fall of the Sith Empire, the Republic enjoyed a century of peace until the Sith Brotherhood emerged from the ashes of the Sith Empire. Though the Sith posed a threat to the Republic, the Galactic Senate chose not to take action, leading to the northern worlds in the Republic banding together to form the Border Alliance and combat the threat of the Sith.

The legacy of the Old Republic lived on a millennium after its death; after the rise of the Empire, the Galactic Republic was also referred to as the Old Republic. When the came to power at the end of the, it took inspiration from the Old Republic, including basing its capital on Chandrila.
