Republicanization

Republicanization, later known as Imperialization, was the process of integrating a sentient population into the wider galactic community through the spread of Core Worlds culture. Typically, Republicanization was considered to only be the spread of the Galactic Basic Standard language (in some cases, different localized Basic accents and creoles developed as a result of mixing interstellar languages with their local language[s]), though some considered Republicanization to also include the spread of "Republic culture", which itself was a hegemony of hundreds of different cultures. By the time of the Clone Wars, almost 10,000 Human-populated planets had undergone Republicanization to some extent.
