The Galaxy

Star Wars is not only a sequence of battles and famous individuals. Planets organize settlement and labor. Species live through communities rather than stereotypes. Organizations turn values into rules and authority. Cultures and religions change through migration, conflict, kinship, memory, ritual, and exchange. Ships and artifacts connect those systems materially.

Seven connected systems

Explore the social galaxy

Each section can stand alone, but the value comes from following the links between place, identity, institutions, mobility, and objects.

Connected archive

Follow the relationships outward

A useful atlas should not end at a place name. These trails show how one subject can move across worlds, people, institutions, culture, history, and media.

Example trail · Mandalore

A planet, a people, a political crisis, and an argument over identity.

Mandalore makes sense only when the world is connected to its clans, civil wars, pacifist government, militant movements, Imperial occupation, diaspora, and later restoration. The same network links Satine Kryze, Bo-Katan, Sabine Wren, Din Djarin, Death Watch, the Darksaber, and several historical eras.
