Most people rebelling against the Empire: Though it is futile, I must take this last stand. I have no hope of survival, nor do I think myself strong enough to win, but I will not go down without a fight

Mandalorians fighting the Empire: Get the fuck off my lawn!

Things to consider when Writing about Rebellions!!

⊹ Who actually started this thing and why. was it one charismatic leader, a group of angry citizens, exiled nobles trying to reclaim power. because their original motivation might be very different from what the rebellion becomes

⊹ How are they funded?? rebellions need money. weapons cost money. feeding people costs money. are they stealing it, do they have secret benefactors, are they just desperately poor and making do with nothing. This affects EVERYTHING!

⊹ What's the actual organizational structure. is there a clear leader or is it more of a chaotic collective. How do decisions get made. Who has real power vs who's just the public face

⊹ Where do they hide/operate from. Secret basement meetings? the forest? another country that's protecting them? constantly moving? do normal citizens know where to find them if they want to join

⊹ How do they communicate without getting caught. Coded messages, magic, messenger birds, is there a spy network. What happens when the codes get cracked

⊹ What's their actual plan here. overthrow the government and then what?? do they have ideas for what comes after or are they just angry and desperate. this is where a lot of rebellions fall apart

⊹ Who joins a rebellion? the idealists, the people who lost everything, those seeking revenge, bored nobles wanting adventure (who are probably terrible at it), people who were forced into it. mix it up

⊹ How do members prove loyalty and what happens to suspected traitors. because there's definitely a traitor. there's always a traitor

It is so unbelievably funny that the moment Mon Mothma makes the declaration of Rebellion to the galaxy, literally everything for the empire fucking falls apart in the span of a god dammed year lmao

Mass rebellions, Sabotages, the empire panicks and forces things harder which results in more rebellion.

Then Governor Pryce dies, Thrawn disappears from the face of the galaxy, a Jedi denies Palpatine the way into the world between worlds by destroying a one of a kind temple, and the TIE defender program is shut down, and the empire loses Lothal.

Then literally a few months later, The ISB loses 4 of its most senior staff members, They fail to get Luthen, then a few days later, Krennic gets the Death star taken away from him, The Research facility at Eadu is destroyed, then literally the next day, the Scarif Database is attacked, a whole rebel fleet shows up out of nowhere at Scarif, They escape with the fucking plans, Empire never learning of the sabotage Galen put.

Then literally within the next weeks the fucking death star is blown up with 70% of imperial high command in it, Tarkin and Yularen die, Vader goes missing for weeks, and A skywalker is a jedi and leading the fucking charge. Then when Vader's back, Tagge dies and Cylo flips and tries to murder vader so he has to be put down as well.

I just know Palpatine was absolutely fuming in his chambers. You know the man is raging out of his mind.
