Guardian Mandalorians

The Guardian Mandalorians were a faction of s during the who declared loyalty to Mandalore the Sentinel, from whom they drew their name. The Guardian Mandalorians controlled itself, as well as a number of neighboring worlds in, but lacked sufficient firepower to present a realistic threat to either of the galaxy's major powers that boxed them in: the  and the New Sith Empire. Mandalorian society was largely closed against outsiders as part of a larger plan to project more strength than Mandalore actually had, and thereby ward off challenges while the Mandalorians struggled to rearm and to decide whether to throw in their lot with either superpower.

The Guardian Mandalorians believed in a unified Mandalore as a society, and disdained Mandalorians who served as bounty hunters or mercenaries. This created a great deal of pride among their ranks, but also cut off one of the Mandalorians' largest traditional sources of income.
