How far in the future is the narrator of LOTGH?
In the beginning of the ova the narrator says:
They also say things such as:
Which raises the question of just how far in the future the narrator is from the events of the ova.
For the then galaxy to be a "tiny island of space" now, it means humanity has expanded massively which requires A LOT of time.. I know it's fiction but it surprises me how detailed the events that take place during the ova are described for the narrator to be speaking from such a far future..
It makes me wonder about the order of the universe in the narrator's time.. did the Empire and the Alliance merge? did a new government emerge? is the universe finally at peace? (hopefully)
Maybe this is a little more explored in the books (I haven´t read them..).
Also sorry if my writing is off, English isn't my first language.
