From its ancient founding in the aftermath of the Rakatan Infinite Empire to its final, tragic fall under the shadow of Darth Sidious, the Galactic Republic stood for over 25,000 years—a symbol of unity, democracy, and eventual decay.

In this full-length Star Wars Legends documentary, we explore the complete rise, golden age, and fall of the Republic. Discover the ancient battles against the Sith, the Great Hyperspace War, the Jedi Order’s complex role in galactic politics, and the slow, insidious corruption that paved the way for the Clone Wars and the birth of the Empire.

Key chapters include:
• The Republic’s founding and early expansion
• The Tionese War and first Jedi conflicts
• The Great Sith Wars and the rise of Dark Lords
• The Ruusan Reformation and Jedi militarization
• The Clone Wars and the Republic’s final days

With deep dives into lore, forgotten wars, and pivotal galactic decisions, this documentary uncovers how the Republic endured for millennia—only to be brought down from within.
