Folee was then to use the Stellar Envoy to retrieve the 'treasure'. They tasked Captain Tobb Jadak with delivering the Stellar Envoy to an Antarian Ranger named Aren Folee. The group decided it was time to re-relieve the icon they had hidden on Tandun III to the galaxy, hoping it would restore Republic honor. In 19 BBY the Republic Group had started to worry about the dark direction the Republic was now taking. However, late in the Clone Wars Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, for unknown reasons, placed a reduced six-spoke emblem on his customized interceptor. The symbol was also used on the Jedi Starfighter and Jedi Interceptor. Some of these vessels included the Republic Gunship and the UT-AT. The Republic Group had the symbol moved to Tandun III for safe keeping.ĭuring the Clone Wars numerous Republic vehicles and vessels were marked with the Galactic Roundel. The counterfeit was placed by the Republic Group who believed the symbol could be used to reawaken and rouse those who had fallen under Palpatine's sway. In 25 BBY the Rotunda had undergone a desperate renovation at which point the emblem that sat on the podium was replaced by a counterfeit. One was placed on the podium of the Galactic Senate Rotunda and up until Palpatine's proclamation one adorned the Hall of Justice on Alderaan. Later on the Galactic Roundel once again had become the symbol of the Republic and unity. As the Jedi were founded from the Bendu, the Insignia of Unity was eventually adopted to become the symbol of the Galactic Republic.ĭuring the Old Sith Wars the Republic used a nine-spoke symbol and put it on their ships. The Tho Yor were also decorated with symbols reminiscent of the Galactic Roundel. The insignia was meant to represent the number nine with its eight spokes joined to one disc. In their study of numerology, they believed that the number nine signified the beneficent presence of the Force in a united galaxy. The Galactic Roundel dates back thousands of generations to the Bendu monks.
