The Entire Clone Wars Timeline [Canon]

For those wondering about General Grievous' cybernetics backstory: It has been changed in Canon where he wanted to get them as opposed to the backstory in the original Expanded Universe, aka Legends, where it was forced upon him by Dooku who blew up his transport ship prior to the outbreak of the Clone Wars. This video goes over the entire Clone Wars timeline in Canon. Starting from the foundations laid by the Sith, the Separatist Crisis, the pivotal points throughout the Clone Wars and the eventual transformation of the Republic into the Galactic Empire. Video written by Numidian Prime and edited by Vader's Fortress. Check out Numidian Prime's website: numidianprime.wordpress.com/ and Vader's Fortress channel: youtube.com/c/VadersFortress

It still kinda blows my mind that the Clone Wars only lasted 3 years. With the way it’s talked about in the original trilogy & all the stuff mentioned in this video, you’d think it would have lasted longer.

The late Republic Era (Prequel Era) is probably the best period of Star Wars history, in my opinion. It still has so much potential to be completely fleshed out and developed.

This video was: Informative ✅ Helpful✅ Entertaining✅ Life changing✅ Full of war crimes✅

It's pretty funny how Sidious spent most of his life following an extremely slow and meticulous plan in order to destroy the Jedi, while other Sith, like Darth Malgus, just crashed ships full of Dark Side's adepts into the Jedi Temple in plan: "Let's end this sh*t quickly. I want to be home for dinner!"

“The guerrilla resistance, … would ironically later fight against the force that trained and equipped it…” Me an American: “Hey I’ve seen this one before it’s a classic“

It's amazing how much planning and work went on over so many generations to engineer the Clone Wars and the Fall of the Jedi, and the Empire lasted barely more than 20 years.

If there’s one thing I would change about the clone wars in canon is give the CIS more content centered around them. Not as villains but as the main characters.

Something that isn’t mentioned here but I think is important: After a bombing on Cato Nemoidia, palpatine uses “growing threats of extremism” to formally integrate the Jedi into the republics military. This is where the Jedi get their armor from during the Clone Wars series, and it also marks the end of the Jedis’ role as peacekeepers into soldiers.

It’s such a shame the clone wars series ended. So many amazing plot lines for a “kids” show. It’s the best iteration of Star Wars hands down

1000 years before the Clone Wars Darth Bane: "Now that the Sith have bern reborn under our new phylosophy, the Jedi will be finally destroyed" Darth Zannah: "Excellent, Master. And when we will be able to get our revenge?" Darth Bane: "..." Darth Zannah: "..." Darth Bane: "Maybe we are going to need "some" time..."

“And General Grievous narrowly escaped” x50

If you wanna sync up the 2003 and 2008 Clone Wars shows, watch the 2003 Clone Wars up to Anakin’s Knighting and the montage after when he gets the scar. Then binge the 2008 Clone Wars up to Season 7 and past the first two arcs. This is where things get tricky, but just watch The Battle of Coruscant before the Siege of Mandalore and you’re good.

12:13 such a shame we never saw Crystal Crisis on Utupau fully realised in animation. It was so well written and the voice acting is amazing. 😔

i would love to see all the cool adventures Obi-wan and Anakin took between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, not many people talk about that gap but i think itd be compelling

Watching a 30 minute video on the canon Clone Wars Timeline is exactly what I needed.

Grievous did not "chose" to turn into a cybernetic being, he was framed by Dooku who nearly killed him on an explosion and had him rebuilt by Palpatine using tech later used to repair Vader (but badly).

When I was younger I thought the war lasted at least 5+ years. It’s amazing for such a short war it cause that much destruction.

Out of every conflict in the Star Wars mythology you could arguably say that the clone wars was one of the most important factors to shape how the galaxy would look & be going towards from that point on. It had so much to do with how the future was shaped in that world it’s crazy 💯.

I never knew this all tied together so perfectly. I only watched a bit of the animated series because I just found it confusing and it wasnt really my style but damn you told a perfect summary of that whole timeline. And I never knew it also connected the Star Wars Disney+ shows like that. Awesome
