It's been decades and we sill have no good idea what the New Republic was or looked like.

And why was the Empire so terrible?
Well they blew up a planet, that alone is enough to justify unseating them
We never saw what was really going on on Alderaan!

lol I guess that’s true. But brah, whatever they were doing, it wasn’t worth vaporizing billions of people
I had always hoped to see the Empire hunt down every Jedi and every clone as a kid. Like when I was a kid I thought being a clone was probably illegal in the clone wars and it was a big, complex thing and the empire just solved it with brute force.
Oh well
Mass murder , genocide , executions without a trial , use of torture , a "join us or die" philosophy , construction of multiples WMD , ruled through fear and intimidation etc etc
They had a working system alright but it was pure fascism
I hit up Celebration earlier this year in Chicago, was pretty fun. Lots of amazing cosplay
Next one is in Anaheim. I’ve never cosplayed, but would love to dress as this, complete wth man-satchel just to ruffle some feathers

There seemed to be a lot of planets that didn't join them.
depends on where in the saga as well. if its during the events of the mandalorian then she will need to be what, late 30s or early 40s?
What if each Alderaanian had 4 child clone slaves they did horrible things to.
Correct and you gotta look at the canon material outside of the movies and tv series to see what happened to them (IE : The Lords Of The Sith comic and stuff like that). Ryloth , Mandalore and others all tried to resist imperial rule and it didn't end very well for them. Palps and Vader were not fucking around
Basically if the Empire wanted you , either you joined them or you were mass slaughtered. There was no in between
Gotta save the kids in my mind; empire bad
Sounds like the Empire got rid of the terrorist planets.
They were accelerated growth child slaves. They were going to die in a couple hours anyway.

I feel I could find a way to slow their growth and show them compassion. All children need is a good home, firm boundaries and not to be blown up by the Death Star
Terrorists if you're pro fascism
Freedom fighters and pro democracy if you're not
I'm all for the argument that Anakin murdered children and that was the wrong thing to do, but those clone slave kids on Alderaan were never going to make it. In the time between the battle of Scarif and the capturing of Leia at least 2 generations were born, abused, and died.
The Mandalore sounds like a Tyrant and a warrior culture doesn't sound peaceful at all.
