After the seemingly final defeat of the Sith, the Republic enters a state of complacency. In the waning years of the Republic, the senate was rife with corruption and scandal, and saddled with a bureaucracy so immense that effective governing was nearly impossible. The ambitious Senator Palpatine caused himself to be elected Supreme Chancellor, and promised to reunite the galaxy under a New Order.
It is during this time that the events of Episodes I (The Phantom Menace) and II (Attack of the Clones), the Clone Wars and Episode III (Revenge of the Sith) occur.
