Concordian Republic

The Concordian Republic was the government of Concord Dawn from 33 BBY to 16 BBY.

The Concordian Republic was formed during the Great Clan Wars (44-32 BBY), when many Concordians (a sub-nation of the Mandalorian "nation") revolted against the numerous Mandalorian clans that ruled Concord Dawn and formed their own government. Although they considered themselves culturally separate from the Mandalorians, they still relied on the Journeyman Protectors for law enforcement and military defense, as was the case with many populations across the Mandalore sector. Each settlement under the Concordian Republic was ruled by either a majordomo (synonymous with the title "mayor") or a chieftain, and the executive ruler of the Concordian Republic was known as the Governor of Concord Dawn. The official language of the Concordian Republic was Konkor'a, which was the Concordian dialect of Mando'a. When the final Governor of Concord Dawn sided with the Galactic Empire (who had been campaigning to conquer the Mandalore sector), most Concordians joined the Mandalorian clans in their resistance against Imperial forces; as a result, the Concordian Republic was disbanded in favor of the many pro-Mandalorian city-states that ruled Concord Dawn prior to the Concordian Republic's formation.
