With the imminent premiere of the Last Jedi, Episode VIII of the Star Wars saga, we decided to release a video covering the events that happened right after the Return of the Jedi, as they may help to understand the Last Jedi better. In this video, we will talk about the Battle of Jakku which was decisive in the struggle of the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire. This battle possible was also crucial as it probably was central to the creation of the First Order and possibly hides clues to the origin of the Supreme Leader Snoke and the secretive Knight of Ren.

By the end of the II century BC, Rome became the dominant state in the Mediterranean, defeating Carthage, Macedon and the Seleucids, yet the internal problems and the arrival of the Germanic Cimbri showed that the victorious Roman legions are in need of a reform. Although some of the changes were started to be implemented previously, it was the new brilliant general - Gaius Marius, who reformed the legions, changing almost all aspects of their fighting and paving the way to more conquests. Unfortunately, for the Republic, this military reform would have a long-standing effect on the political life and would make the likes of Sulla, Caesar, Pompey, and others very powerful.
