Overview

Star Wars is an epic space-opera franchise created by George Lucas. The first film premiered in 1977 and the franchise has since grown into films, television series, novels, comics, and games set in a galaxy far, far away.

The saga

The Skywalker Saga is told across three trilogies:
  • Prequel trilogy (Episodes I–III): The fall of the Galactic Republic and the rise of Darth Vader.
  • Original trilogy (Episodes IV–VI): The Rebel Alliance’s fight against the Galactic Empire.
  • Sequel trilogy (Episodes VII–IX): The Resistance battles the First Order decades later.

The Force

The Force is an energy field that binds the galaxy together. Practitioners fall into two main traditions:
  • Jedi — Guardians of peace who follow the light side.
  • Sith — Wielders of the dark side, driven by passion and power.
