HISTORY OF THE MANDALORIANS

STAR WARS HISTORY PT 2: MANDALORIANS

(Remember when you used to love the Mandalorians? Before Episode II came out and destroyed all good things about them?). . .

Boba Fett - one of, if not the, coolest characters in Star Wars. He's the ultimate badass bounty hunter, sporting killer looking Mandalorian armor. "Mandalorian?" you say? Mandalorians were a large group of fearsome warriors that rivaled the Jedi in terms of ability, but were non-Force Users. For thousands of years, the Mandalorians served as fearsome mercenaries, working throughout the galaxy to help win wars and topple governments. The Mandalorians aided the Sith against the Old Republic during the Sith Wars. . . and were eventually wiped out by the Jedi. Read more HERE

What about Jango Fett?
Well, being the uber-dork that I am, I like to pretend Jango was just another of the few Mandalorians that survived with NO relation to Boba Fett in anyway. Perhaps "Fett" is the name for which Mandalorian Clan he belongs to; "The Fett Clan"... or a rank, like "general". Its all about putting mental filters in place - It keeps the rage down when watching Episode II.
