Description

EP.   175

Did the Empire succeed the Republic? Did the First Order succeed the Empire? Does that mean the First Order succeeded the Republic? Real-world history abounds with examples of regime changes, successor states and sweeping constitutional amendments. How can they help us understand similar dynamics in Star Wars? This week we’ve got our poli sci hats back on so strap yourselves in for another classic EOC deep dive!
