The placement is based on the premise that Ben Skywalker, Luke and Mara's son is in his late teens at the time of the story. There is a continuity flaw with the narative, it is written under the idea that the lightsaber Luke lost at Bespin in ESB drifted from owner to owner over the years until Ben shows up in this story and reclaims it. The problem is that it has been documented in more than one source that Vader retrieved both Luke's hand and saber after their fight and that the saber was eventually given to Ben's mother Mara at the end of "The Last Command" 10 years after The Battle of Yavin.

Gen.Vader Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 wait, hperdrive, the republic and jedi were founded in the same year? please clear up? I've have you now - Lord Vader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 wait, hperdrive, the republic and jedi were founded in the same year? please clear up? The order was established around the same time the Republic was formed. They were originally a military arm of the Republic and the Knights had their own rank system. At least according to one of the more popular games which thanks to LA has become canon something which the books lack. As for hyperdrive, it wasnt so much invented as rediscovered around that same time. Since there is no real date system for each of these events its all lumped together into one year. Some stuff to add to your timeline http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBY#Timeline_of_Star_Wars_History Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foshjedi2004 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 Here is Wikidpedia's History Before the Battle of Yavin (BBY)c. 5,000,000,000 BBY The Star Wars galaxy is created. The first star in the Cularian System, named Morasil, is formed. c. 3,000,000,000 BBY The Sharu race begins to evolve in the Rafa System. c. 2,000,000,000 BBY The Oseon System is created. A rogue star is believed to have passed too close to the system, disrupting the planet formation and creating an abnormally large asteroid belt. c. 100,000 BBY The planet Coruscant is now covered entirely by its principal city, later known as the Galactic City. The ancient Sith civilization begins to develop on the planet Korriban. c. 49,000 BBY The Infinite Empire of the Rakata is established. c. 28,000 BBY After a protracted civil war, a plague affecting only the Rakata causes the Infinite Empire to collapse. c. 27,000 BBY The first human colonists land on Alderaan. c. 25,200 BBY The Force is discovered by many groups across the galaxy; many dismiss them as mystic crackpots. c. 25,130 BBY The reign of Xim the Despot begins. c. 25,100 BBY Xim the Despot is killed while battling the Hutts at Vontor, ending his tyrannic reign over the Tion Hegemony. c. 25,000 BBY The Hyperdrive is invented. The Unification Wars are fought. The Galactic Constitution is signed. After the signing of this constitution the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order are founded. Coruscant becomes the Republic's capital. c. 24,500 BBY The first war between the Jedi, the Great Schism, begins, when some of their number are drawn to the dark side. c. 24,400 BBY The Dark Jedi lose the war and are exiled from the Republic. In the realms beyond the Republic's reach they found the Sith Empire, which remains unknown to rest of the galaxy for almost twenty thousand years. A prophecy tells of a Chosen One who will bring "balance to the Force". c. 9,990 BBY Lightsabers are invented. c. 8,000 BBY The Republic colonizes the planet Malastare. Gran colonists arrive over the following centuries and begin to displace the native Dugs. c. 7,000 BBY The Hundred-Year Darkness. c. 6,900 BBY The Hundred-Year Darkness presumably ends. c. 5,500 BBY The first leg of the Rimma Trade Route is established by Tapani Sector merchants. c. 5,000 BBY The Great Hyperspace War. Gav and Jori Daragon accidentally lead the Sith Empire to the Republic. The Republic wins the following war, but Naga Sadow escapes to Yavin 4. The planet Tatooine is discovered by the Republic (approximate date). It had formerly been a part of the Infinite Empire. c. 4,400 BBY The Jedi Knight Freedon Nadd falls to the Dark Side, learning the secrets of the Sith from the Dark Lord Naga Sadow. 4,250 BBY The Vultar Cataclysm. 3,996 BBY The Great Sith War. Fallen Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma and Exar Kun lead a war against the Republic, but are defeated by the Republic and light-sided Jedi. 3,986 BBY Ulic Qel-Droma is killed. c. 3,983 BBY The Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders begin to conquer worlds in the Outer Rim. The Jedi Council forbids involvement by the Jedi until the problem has been assessed. 3,963 BBY The Mandalorian Wars begin. The Jedi Revan and Malak defy the Jedi Council and lead the Republic forces against the invaders. 3,960 BBY The Mandalorian Wars end. A Jedi serving Revan as general, later called the Exile, willfully severs all ties to the Force to end the pain caused by the thousands of deaths at the Battle of Malachor V. The Exile is called to Coruscant to answer for defying the Jedi Council, and is banished when the Council learns of the general's willful abandonment of the Force. Revan and Malak disappear. Shortly after this time, Revan and Malak fall to the Dark Side, each assuming the title of Sith Lord and adding Darth to their names. The tradition of using "Darth" as a prefix for a Sith name is used often, but certainly not by all Sith Lords for the next 3,000 years. HK-47 is built by Revan. 3,959 BBY Revan and Malak, who have been seduced by the Dark Side, declare war on the Republic. Only the Battle Meditation of Bastila Shan staves off certain defeat. 3,956 BBY Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic The Jedi Civil War concludes with the redemption of Revan, the death of Malak, and the destruction of the Star Forge. 3,955 BBY Revan disappears into the Unknown Regions to destroy the ancient Sith Empire. 3,951 BBY Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords The Exile is discovered aboard the Ebon Hawk, Revan's ship, by Darth Traya, a Sith Lord trying to kill the Force by manipulating the life-threatening echoes caused by the Exile's willing abandonment of it. The Exile reestablishes connection to the Force, then kills Darth Traya, Darth Nihilus, and Darth Sion, who have spent the last five years murdering Jedi, and a new Jedi Order is built. c. 3,900 BBY The planet Naboo is colonized by settlers from Grizmalt. c. 2,000 BBY A rogue Jedi absconds from the order with a stolen Holocron and starts a new Sith Order that engages the Jedi for the next thousand years. The New Sith War begins, lasting for over a thousand years. c. 1,000 BBY The Battle of Ruusan. The remaining Sith are exterminated on Ruusan, with the exception of Darth Bane, who starts a new Sith Order with only one master and one apprentice at a time. Furthermore as part of his own reformation of the Sith Order, Darth Bane institutes the tradition that all Sith names shall begin with "Darth", a previously common but not universal appelation. The site of the final confrontation of the battle becomes the legendary Valley of the Jedi. The Senate passes the Ruusan Reformation, setting the year of the Battle of Ruusan to the year zero. 896 BBY Yoda, arguably the greatest Jedi Master ever to exist, is born on an unknown planet. He is discovered by the Jedi, and begins his training in infancy. 596 BBY Jabba Desilijic Tiure is born. 490 BBY The Corporate Sector Authority, a free-enterprise fiefdom of the galaxy, is founded to free the Senate and corporate moneymakers from each other. 350 BBY The Trade Federation is founded. 200 BBY A Wookiee named Chewbacca is born on Kashyyyk. 102 BBY Count Dooku is born to an aristocratic family on Serenno.

Zam Wesell is born on Zolan. c. 50 BBY Jar Jar Binks is born on Naboo. 46 BBY Padmé Amidala is born to Ruwee and Jobal Naberrie on Naboo. c. 45 BBY The Katana fleet, the first attempt by the Republic to rebuild a standing military after Ruusan, is launched. 44 BBY The Stark Hyperspace War (no relation to the Great Hyperspace War). 41 BBY Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One who will bring balance to the Force, is born to a slave named Shmi Skywalker. 40 BBY Finis Valorum is elected Chancellor of the Republic. 39 BBY Shmi and Anakin Skywalker come to live on Tatooine when they are purchased by Gardulla the Hutt. However, the Hutt ultimately loses her prize to a junk dealer named Watto. 35 BBY The Great Resynchronization occurs, in an attempt to harmonize different Galactic calendars. 34 BBY The Mandalorians are destroyed by a Jedi task force led by Count Dooku in the Battle of Galidraan.

Anakin Skywalker is discovered by Qui-Gon Jinn on the planet Tatooine. After Jinn's death, Skywalker begins training to be a Jedi under Obi-Wan Kenobi. The Battle of Naboo takes place when the Trade Federation, under the influence of Darth Sidious, blockades, and eventually invades Naboo to protest a shipping tax. Queen Amidala fights back when the Galactic Senate refuses to act: she unites her people with the Gungans and together they successfully overturn the Federation, despite the Naboos' and Gungans' mutual dislike for each other. In the battle, Darth Maul kills Qui-Gon Jinn, and Obi-Wan Kenobi kills Darth Maul. Daultay Dofine is killed when the Droid Control Ship is destroyed. The droid R2-D2 distinguishes himself by saving Amidala's ship when it was running the blockade. On Tatooine, R2-D2 meets his future counterpart C-3PO. Following the Naboo crisis, Senator Palpatine of Naboo is elected Chancellor of the Republic, replacing Finis Valorum. Count Dooku leaves the Jedi Order and disappears, secretly joining Darth Sidious. Bail Organa is elected to the Galactic Senate as Senator of Alderaan. A clone army is created on Kamino in secret, supposedly commissioned by Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas. The source of the clones, Jango Fett, demands, in addition to his considerable pay, an unaltered clone for himself, whom he raises as a son and names Boba. 29 BBY Raith Sienar presents the original concept for the Death Star to Wilhuff Tarkin. Han Solo is born on Corellia. 27 BBY Yarael Poof is killed. He gave his life saving Coruscant from a band of terrorists who had secured a weapon powerful enough to destroy the entire planet. 24 BBY Count Dooku reappears on Raxus Prime and alledges that the Republic has become too corrupt and pushes for citizens to break from the Republic and form a new government of their own, the Confederacy of Independent Systems. 22 BBY Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones An attack is made on Senator Amidala's landing platform, on Coruscant, by bounty hunter Zam Wesell, killing eight Naboo officers and Amidala's decoy, Corde. After a second attempt to kill Senator Amidala, Jedi Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi chase Zam Wesell through Coruscant. Jango Fett silences Zam Wesell with a poison dart, killing her instantly. Anakin Skywalker returns to his homeworld of Tatooine and meets his stepbrother Owen Lars. C-3PO is reunited with R2-D2. Shmi Skywalker is killed by Tusken Raiders, driving Anakin Skywalker toward the dark side of the Force. Obi-Wan Kenobi discovers that Nute Gunray has been attempting to orchestrate Padmé Amidala's death in revenge for foiling his plans ten years before and that Count Dooku's Confederacy of Independent Systems is preparing for war. Palpatine is given "emergency powers" by the Senate and adopts the clone army as the Grand Army of the Republic grown on Kamino to fight the Confederacy. The Clone Wars begin with the Battle of Geonosis. Mace Windu kills Jango Fett in the fighting and Boba is left an orphan. Poggle the Lesser passes the later concept for the Death Star to Count Dooku, who in turn places it under the protection of Darth Sidious on Coruscant. Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala fall in love and marry in secret on Naboo. 22 - 19 BBY Star Wars: Clone Wars Aayla Secura and Ylenic It'kla track down a Techno Union scientist on Corellia. Durge reamerges from hibernation and joins the Confederacy. He fights in the Battle of Muunilist against Obi-Wan and apparently is killed. However, he survives and after Asajj Ventress is defeated by Anakin Skywalker he fights with her against the Jedi. He is ultimately killed by Anakin Skywalker. A Dark Jedi named Asajj Ventress meets Count Dooku and proclaims herself as a Sith. However after fighting with Count Dooku she understands that she is far beyond their power and wishes to join the Sith, so Darth Sidious and Count Dooku use her for their dark plan against Anakin Skywalker. Once she finds Anakin Skywalker, they engage in battle, and Ventress is defeated, but survives. Trandoshan mercenaries capture the Republic Assault Ship Prosecuter and try to sell it to the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Republic Special Forces recapture it. c. 21 BBY Mara Jade is born on an unknown planet. 19 BBY Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith General Grievous, leader of the Separatist Army, invades Coruscant, kidnapping Chancellor Palpatine. The Clone Wars end with the destruction of the Confederacy at the Battle of Coruscant, Mustafar, and Utapau. Chancellor Palpatine is revealed to be Darth Sidious, kills Jedi Masters Mace Windu, Saesee Tiin, Kit Fisto, and Agen Kolar, and creates the Galactic Empire with himself as Emperor. Anakin Skywalker turns to the dark side, and becomes Darth Vader, Palpatine's ruthless second-in-command. The Great Jedi Purge is orchestrated by Palpatine and Vader and almost all Jedi are hunted down and killed including Ki-Adi-Mundi, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon, Stass Allie, Luminara Unduli, and Barriss Offee; only a handful of Jedi Knights survive. Darth Vader kills the Seperatist Council in cold blood on Mustafar. Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi then duel. Vader loses both his legs and his left arm in the battle, then burns alive. He is rescued by Darth Sidious and rebuilt as part-man, part-machine. Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa are born to Padmé Amidala, who dies in childbirth. Obi-Wan Kenobi, a survivor of the Great Jedi Purge leaves Luke with Anakin's step brother Owen Lars and Leia with Bail Organa, so they cannot be discovered by the Empire. Two Jedi Masters, having escaped the Great Jedi Purge, go in exile. Obi-Wan Kenobi in a remote desert on Tatooine, Yoda in a swamp on Dagobah. They will await the coming of age of Luke Skywalker. The first resistance to Imperial rule comes up. All of these events set the stage for the Galactic Civil War. Construction of the Death Star secretly begins. 15 BBY - Star Wars Animated Adventures: Droids C-3PO and R2-D2 have even more misadventures together with their masters Jann Tosh and Mungo Baobab. 13 BBY Firmus Piett is a lieutenant at age 26. 5 BBY Han Solo, now in a military academy, saves Chewbacca, now a slave, and is subsequently drummed out of the Imperial Navy.
