Jedi Order (LAASWS)

The Jedi Order was an ancient order of force wielders who served as advisors and peacekeepers in the Galactic Republic.

History
During the rise of Supreme Chancellor Signet Mezzileen, the Jedi Order did nothing until the Chancellor was too powerful to challenge. So Jedi Grand Master Yoda arranged an alliance with Mezzileen in the hope of restraining him and preventing further bloodshed. However, after an uprisng on Coruscant, the Jedi were expelled from Coruscant and driven to Ossus where they were besieged. When the siege was broken by an alliance of worlds, the Jedi formed the Jedi Coalition agaianst Mezzileen, which sparked the Mezzilenic War.
