As we step into uncertain times we must come together to defend our democracy lest it be taken from us again. It's up to us to make a stand for what is right and just. Let us bear in mind the grave failures of our predecessors and strive to be better.
—Supreme Chancellor Errol Lassic
The Galactic Republic, also known as the Republic, was the restored Galactic Republic. It formed from the Resistance and the remnants of the New Republic in the aftermath of the First Order Insurgency. It functioned as the continuation of the older Galactic Republic, now the Old Republic, governed by a newly reformed Galactic Senate made up of representatives from its member worlds..
It was founded in 41 ABY on Chandrila as a political reformation of its earlier predecessor. It enforced a strict policy of requiring a majority vote from its member worlds before all major decisions. It enacted the Palpatine Act to bind the Supreme Chancellor to the oversight of the Galactic Senate giving it the power to veto any act of a Supreme Chancellor if it was found to be against the best interests of the Republic. It employed Order 65 as a precautionary measure to guard against corruption.
The first worlds to rejoin the Republic were Naboo, Chandrila and Corellia. A deep distrust and weariness kept many worlds from joining reducing the reborn Republic to a relatively minor galactical government.
