This archive is a personal project of mine. I worked in the New Republic’s office of archival research prior to beginning this database.

In 9 ABY, the office was tasked with documenting the plight of races that contributed to The Struggle against the Empire. In the early phases of the project, our office, including myself and 300 other researchers, were simply tasked with documenting anything we found pertinent to understanding the Rebellion. In the beginning, the scope of our interest was much broader, and we added a large amount of cultural documents to our archives.

More recently, around 11 ABY, the New Republic began the process of grooming the archive to create a more succinct narrative of the Rebellion. It was at this point that I felt more uncomfortable with the project. A researcher at heart, I wanted to paint a whole picture of our struggle, and ultimately left the research department. Thankfully, before my departure, I was able to save multiple documents from my first expedition to Endor to document the Ewoks.

In this holoweb site you will find a multitude of documents that were left out of the official archives. I am actively working with some ex-colleagues at the libraries on Ossus to broaden my scope beyond the Ewok people. For now, I hope that what I am able to provide will be of use to any young researchers.
