I can't fucking believe it you would promote this trash. I just finished reporting their disgusting borderline porn ads to YT, how can you endorse that?
Yeah I hope you can find some better sponsors... these guys make abhorrent ads. It's ok if you're in a financially sketchy position but these guys just shouldn't be the first choice
It's pretty curious that Alderaan wasn't directly destroyed by extremely powerful warlords like the Sith or the Rakata for military reasons, but by a common old man just to troll a poor 19-year-old girl.
*Fun fact:* During the "Old Republic MMO" Era, there was in Alderaan a bloody Civil War between the noble families House Organa (backed by the Republic) and House Thul (backed by the Sith Empire). Thousands of years later, after the destruction of the planet by Tarkin, both families would finally reconcile through the friendship formed between the Solo children (heirs to House Organa) and Raynar Thul (heir to House Thul and future leader of the Killiks) during their shared Jedi training at Luke's Academy
Fun Fact from Star Wars The Essential Atlas: A founding member of the Republic, Alderaan became a symbol of human culture at its best, with cities built to coexist with nature, and renowned universities. People across the galaxy enjoyed Alderaanian cuisine, spiced wines, and exhibitions of Alderaanian dance, theater, music, and poetry.
SWTOR game was the point where it truly made me care about the Alderaan, learning all its culture and beauty, feeling the music. It’s similar to how the clone wars made me care about Jedi that died in ROTS-expanding Star Wars truly made the franchise great.
I remember finding an image a few years ago that was from a Japanese manga that adapted the original trilogy. It shows a woman outside with her daughter and she's hanging up laundry to dry. In the distance you can see a huge half sphere and a long beam coming out of it. It's actually the Death Star's superlaser impacting the planet. The manga panel is a depiction of a woman and her daughter and their last moments on Alderaan.
Bail’s literally the best senator in terms of leadership, charisma, and where he stands with both Jedi, and clones (pre-order 66 & post, given he learned of the inhibitor chips and ofc knew about Keeli and his men’s sacrifice). Not to mention his stances on his politics in the show and his appearances throughout rebels as well just give him so much underrated credit. He even had the guts to try and see what was happening to the Jedi during order 66 as well. Just a spectacular leader, for a spectacular society in space showing (for a majority of the time) the best of humanity in Star Wars.
*Fun fact:* Years after the destruction of Alderaan, Jacen and Jaina Solo went to the remains of Alderaan and collected a very small piece of the planet, which they gave to their mother Leia on her birthday. It was a pretty emotional moment
@nomercyinc6783 - Then why is there a tear welling up in my left eye right now? 😪 And don't you dare say that it's just allergies, you hard-hearted monster!
I think when it originally came out, the destruction of Alderaan in Episode 4 was not meant to trigger an emotional responds like the destruction of Vulcan in the Kelvin timeline was meant to. Rather, I think it's purpose was simply to show how evil the Empire is.
I agree, but people retroactively giving extended histories of minor planets, characters, objects, and even abstractions is one of the things that makes Star Wars so based.
Speaking of Bail Organa, he curiously appeared in a couple of novels before the prequels. His first appearances were in the novelization of "A New Hope", based on one of George Lucas' many discarded scripts, and "The Paradise Snare", alongside a 10-year-old Leia in a welcome-to-Alderaan recording watched by a young adult Han
The ANH radio drama from 1980 has extended scenes set on Alderaan with Bail and Leia hosting Lord Tion boasting of the Empire’s new super weapon before Leia killed him.
@russellharrell2747 - Look, I don't know all the context, but that seems like a very terrorist thing for Leia to have done. I mean, she murdered someone just because he was proud of the Empire's new peacekeeping space station? That's just sick!
@@BugRib well there was a fight over Lord Tion’s gun (which he brought to table at dinner) when he drew it on suspicion of Leia being a rebel spy. So it’s not like she just blasted him out of nowhere. He totally deserved it tho.
I’d say Alderaan was one of the Empires biggest blunders. While it did wipe out the rebels there, it also gave the Rebellion a huge martyr to rally behind with not just the loss of the Organas but an entire peaceful planet. Kind of hard for Palpatine to justify that one.
It was also because of Alderaan that the Empire was finally marked as the "bad guys." Before Tarkin destroyed Alderaan, the Empire wasn't believed to be that bad in comparison to the Republic as they still had a senate(until after the Death Star's construction was complete), and as seen in Star Wars: Lost Stars, people saw the Empire as a chance for a better life as the Republic was unable to provide for the people. In fact, people were encouraged to join the Empire as the Empire did provide a bit to its people. The only ones who really knew the Empire's true colors were the ones that established the Rebellion years before the Empire came to fruition. After Alderaan, the Empire lost its cover and all of its oppression unveiled to the eyes of the public which in turn allowed the Rebellion to not only gain support in overthrowing the Empire but also creating a new Republic to replace the Empire.
According to the "Princess Leia" comic book series, the Organa royal legacy continued after the destruction of Alderaan in two ways. One, of course, was through Princess Leia herself, but also through Leia Organa's companion, Evaan Verlaine, the only Y-Wing pilot to survive the Battle of Yavin. After the battle, Leia and Evaan set out on a mission to gather together as many Alderaan orphans as possible to protect them from the revenge-seeking Empire, as well as to search and establish a new home on another planet which would eventually become, "New Alderaan." Before embarking on their mission, Evaan would disclose to Leia that she (Evaan) had actually been personally mentored by Leia's mother, Breha Organa. When "New Alderaan" had been established, elections were held to choose a new monarch for the society of orphaned Alderaanians. The vote would place Evaan Verlaine as the first Queen of New Alderaan.
Don't buy in to the Rebels' terrorist propaganda. Alderaan had it coming. Taking out Alderaan probably saved trillions of innocent lives. Long live the Empire! Long live Palpatine!
I love this channel! It was recommended to me by the algorithm and it did not disappoint, the fact that you blend Canon and legends lore into these short videos makes it very interesting, also for someone who is kind of deep into star wars lore already. Keep it up :)
I never thought of it before, but the plague that severed the rakatans connection to the force makes sense with mitachlorians. They are said to be what gives a being their connection to the force, and to be organisms themselves. So if the plague killed the mitachlorians, it would seber their force connection. I never put that together before.
George Lucas has famously said that he wrote Star Wars for 12 year olds. My guess is that he probably thought that showing the destruction of Alderaan in all it's horrifying detail may have been a little too much for young theater goers. MPAA rating may have been a concern too. In the end, the scene served it's purpose by very simply showing the true evil and ruthlessness of the Empire.
You know, I don't seem to recall any of the Star Wars action figures I had as a kid ever being labeled for "Ages 32 and Up" on the package. But, hey, I could be wrong on that...@@nomercyinc6783
Western civilization had a place similar to Alderaan. The city-state was called Athens before the city-states were unified to become Greece. Also, Switzerland has a history of neutrality, but made a significant amount of income by providing mercenaries. Combine the two and you get Alderaan.
The amazing "Old Republic" trailer about the Battle of Alderaan perfectly shows in a few minutes what the sequels should have been like. A really powerful badass heroine that everyone loves (Satele Shan>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rey) against a terrifying and imposing Sith Lord (Darth Malgus>>>>>>>>>>Kylo Ren ) and helped by a useful memorable non-Force sensitive ally (Jace Malcom>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Finn/Poe). Watch and learn, Disney
I enjoy the enthusiasm but it’s a bit of a reach. It’s a flashy cinematic for a couple of minutes vs a 90 minute live action film that requires a narrative?
It was suggested in the "Aftermath" books that the refugees of Alderaan were donated quite a few large portions of both Death Stars. At first I thought they would assemble it into some kind of patchwork sphere but now I'm wondering if they build something more grand. Maybe they can use the pieces as a foundation that supports a large disc world made from the remains of the planet? Either way I hope at some point we get to see New Alderaan in a movie or series episode.
There was plenty of run time to show Alderaan, at least for 30 seconds or even a whole minute, especially with the Special Editions abs other revisions of the OT. George reinserted the superfluous Jabba scene in ANH, and that runs around 3 years long, or at least feels like that.
Interestingly, Alderaan could have been unintenionally destroyed by Revan 4000 before Tarkin. When the redeemed Sith Lord and his crew were captured and interrogated by the Sith, they threatened to torture Bastila if he did not tell them where the Jedi conclave was. Revan tried to convince them that the Council was hiding on Alderaan. If it weren't for the fact they were just trolling him (they had already found and destroyed the Enclave on Dantooine) Revan could have condemned Alderaan to an unjustified horrible fate 🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if in the original script of the phantom Naboo was going to be Alderan but then thought what Vader's response would be plus being the Emperor's home planet
So I’ve officially watched every generation tech video and I gotta say I’m addicted to his videos. Like I said in another comment I’m not a huge Star Wars neeed but man the way this guy talks abkut it make me wanna know more. But only by watching his videos.
I'm happy both that you have a new sponsor and that that sponsor is trying new modes of advertising apart from those loud, annoying, often disturbing ads they run. No matter how many times I "block ad" those dildos keep coming back. I detest them and hope they do ad reads more. Love the channel - hope you make loot.
the destruction of both alderaan n the death star was know as tarkins foley, in fact in the radio drama vader was agaisnt destroying alderaan and demanded that the emperor be consulted, but was knock down by tarkn saying that the emperor gave him complete congtrol of the death star
I wonder if Lucas had even the slightest inkling of what his movie would create, would he have destroyed Alderaan? So many things and people have been destroyed, only for later to be retconned or given plot armor to bring them back. maybe Disney and LucasFilms should stop blowing up and offing places and persons that turn out to be favorites or essential to the continum, so quickly 🤣
I think it’s sad to me Because of all the planets I would’ve lived on if I was in universe Quite literally one of maybe three id actually enjoy being on would be Alderaan 😢
And to my understanding, Palpatine was in a frame to execute his friend Tarkin for what was an egregious waste of a tremendous economic and human resource. In one stroke, the tunnel visioned bastard poured all the gas in the galaxy on the cindering fire called the Rebel Alliance. Pure incompetence!
In the Star Wars novel "Death Star," by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry, there's a scene where two Alderaanians sit in a cantina in shell-shocked grief after their world's end. Some Stormtroopers come in and start mouthing off about how Alderaan had been asking for its fate. One of the Alderaanians, a little guy, gets up, walks over to the troopers and stares down one of them, a big hulking ape half again his size. Ape asks what his problem is, and the little guy coldcocks him with one punch. Then the bouncer comes over and softly says to leave the next such idiot to him -- he can hit a lot harder. Also, their drinks are on the house. Alas, I think those guys -- and any other Alderaanians aboard the Death Star -- were blown up by Luke Skywalker's million-to-one shot. But given how they must've felt about their world's end, I'll bet they'd say to Luke, "Thank you. Now we can go home."
I'm surprised nobody discussed this but uh... the destruction of Alderaan could've created a wound in the force. like, decades after its destruction Jedi or those force sensitive can still hear the screams of what happened that day when they are nearby the planet.
"During *Breha* Organa's reign." Breha was the *Queen* -- Bail was *her* consort. Saying "Bail's" reign is like saying Philip reigned over the British Commonwealth. Credit where credit's due.
Sense the first season of clone wars I thought it was to TV show the good guys always win. It was in mention in rebels why they always won . But they never meant to win in universe. But didn't any legit separatist get tired of Duku's incompetence
@@ironspider23 i kinda wanna wait till day 365, I should also start asking ecartspadder again... and mabey greedy, I miss spelt there channels didn't i?
@@theromanorderThsts a good idea 👍 I think you did spell their changes wrong it’s ✅. But I hope 🤞 someone’s does a video on what you have been asking soon!!!!
While brave and morally just, Breha's and Bail's decision to fight against the Empire so openly was a really bad idea. Even without the Death Star, the Empire had more than enough firepower to turn Alderaan into a slag. I think that Breha, Bail and subsequnetly Leia were simply too arrogant. They knew that the Empire was willing to destroy entire worlds, they thought that the Empire wouldn't destroy Alderaan since it was a human core world. And this arrogance proved to be Alderaan's doom.
The Star Wars galaxy has far too many worlds for any one to be that vital to the galaxy as a whole, and there were lots of other planets whose destruction would do more damage to the galaxy as a whole. Losing Corellia would devastate civilian ship production, and do much more damage to the galaxy's ability to produce combat ships for a defense effort. Hell most ship building centers would be much more strategically important. And Alderaan is far from the most populated world in the galaxy. Its loss was tragic and devastating to those who had friends or loved ones there but it just wasn't a crippling blow looking at the big picture. The lack of natural resources just seals the point.
You forgot to mention New Alderaan. Also pre-movie lore doesn't fit Disney Canon anymore since galactic civilization has existed for only a thousand years
Tarkin: [getting Force Lightning'd by Palpatine for this colossal propaganda blunder] My Lord, don't forget that Alderaan was helping terrrorists, and storing weapons.
You have not that exiting of a voice to begin with and your main seller is your really good script. Please outsource the commercial to someone else, because this kind of script will almost always be lame.

I'm surprised nobody discussed this but uh...
the destruction of Alderaan could've created a wound in the force. like, decades after its destruction Jedi or those force sensitive can still hear the screams of what happened that day when they are nearby the planet.
What is that footage from about 10:30 from?
"During *Breha* Organa's reign." Breha was the *Queen* -- Bail was *her* consort. Saying "Bail's" reign is like saying Philip reigned over the British Commonwealth. Credit where credit's due.
Pfft, I find it very amusing that alderaan finally gets destroyed when the ladies are the ones running the show. Take some notes, Galaxy.
Sense the first season of clone wars I thought it was to TV show the good guys always win. It was in mention in rebels why they always won .
But they never meant to win in universe. But didn't any legit separatist get tired of Duku's incompetence
Damn dearthstar
Looks like MinusTirith
Another example as to why tarkin should’ve died at the citadel
In escense: money and liquid assests destroyed.
At least the planet's destruction made most of the galactic citizens realize how truly evil the empire was
Day 322 PLEASE DO MORE TACTICS VIDEOS AND STRUCTURES LIKE THE CIS NAVY STRUCTURE AND RANKS

Wow great
Are the killiks gonna bang Balon Skòl?
Look can shot a 2 meter soul a jumpy rat from a distance
The Empire reduced crime, unemployment & homelessness to 0% on Alderaan.
Alderann was very ruch in natural resources. Very wealthy
Killiks disappeared or genocided?
space Oregon...
Because they have to go back to the Island
While brave and morally just, Breha's and Bail's decision to fight against the Empire so openly was a really bad idea.
Even without the Death Star, the Empire had more than enough firepower to turn Alderaan into a slag. I think that Breha, Bail and subsequnetly Leia were simply too arrogant. They knew that the Empire was willing to destroy entire worlds, they thought that the Empire wouldn't destroy Alderaan since it was a human core world. And this arrogance proved to be Alderaan's doom.
The Star Wars galaxy has far too many worlds for any one to be that vital to the galaxy as a whole, and there were lots of other planets whose destruction would do more damage to the galaxy as a whole. Losing Corellia would devastate civilian ship production, and do much more damage to the galaxy's ability to produce combat ships for a defense effort. Hell most ship building centers would be much more strategically important. And Alderaan is far from the most populated world in the galaxy. Its loss was tragic and devastating to those who had friends or loved ones there but it just wasn't a crippling blow looking at the big picture. The lack of natural resources just seals the point.
You forgot to mention New Alderaan. Also pre-movie lore doesn't fit Disney Canon anymore since galactic civilization has existed for only a thousand years
👍
Don't forget that Alderaan was helping terrorists, and storing weapons.
Just like the civilians and hospitals in pale e stan
/s
Tarkin: [getting Force Lightning'd by Palpatine for this colossal propaganda blunder] My Lord, don't forget that Alderaan was helping terrrorists, and storing weapons.
Can't we just agree that all Disney is non canon?
👍🏿

Alderaan reasons.
You have not that exiting of a voice to begin with and your main seller is your really good script. Please outsource the commercial to someone else, because this kind of script will almost always be lame.
Would people miss Mississippi if it sank to the ocean. The answer is no they wouldn't miss alderaan or Mississippi.
It's a bit late to cry over Alderaan, ya can't bring back a planet blown to bits, the force doesn't work that way 😂.
