Little is said to be known of the earliest history of the Star Wars galaxy before the Republic, but several species that evolved in the Core Worlds, including humans, later came to dominate the galaxy. The consolidation of the New Republic is depicted in The Mandalorian as it sought to wipe out remnants of the Imperial forces, and was eventually destroyed by the First Order, under Supreme Leader Snoke's direction, in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It was enforced by the original Rebellion, eventually known as the New Republic Military. After the end of the Galactic Empire, the New Republic was founded. It was protected by the Jedi Order, the guardians of peace and justice throughout the Star Wars galaxy. It was mainly overseen by the Senate, a body in the Legislative Branch of the Republic government. The Republic is portrayed as a democratic republic that sustained itself peacefully for over twenty-five thousand years, but was tied up in layers of bureaucracy. In the original trilogy, set later in time, it is referred to as the Old Republic.
