Senate Guard COMPLETE History | 15,000 Years of Failure

The Senate Guards are one of the greatest institutions in the Republic, dating back to the Old Republic era and into the Imperial and New Republic age. Influenced by Mandalorians, they would be the most powerful organization out there, but eventually they became inept, and replaced by the Red Guard and Royal Guard.

One of my absolute favorite moments in Revenge of the Sith is when Yoda just casually takes out Palpatine's elite guards with the wave of his hand.

[@marshalllatta2073]

senate guards have some of the coolest looking armor in star wars

[@scarface406]

Patrolling the Senate almost makes you wish for another clone wars

[@user-Jay178]

They looks so cool, yet get treated like jokes. Love your content Meta

[@a.m11558]

I remember reading somewhere that Palpatine used the incident in which Cad Bane held the Senators hostage as an excuse to start phasing out the Senate Guard to replace them with the Coruscant Guard (shock troopers). He did this because the Senate Guard were selected from systems outside the political influence of the Republic (much like the Varangian Guard in the Byzantine Empire in real life) so that they didn't have political loyalties that could be swayed by politicians or other Republic leaders. Palpatine hated this because he needed a guard that were utterly devoted to him and him alone, so he replaced the Senate Guard briefly with the clone shock troopers and then with the Imperial Guards during the Imperial era.

Ooh! A "4 week training program"! I guess we know just how elite the Senate Commandos were

[@dragonblaster-vu8wz]

I actually prefer the Paladin MK2 rifle used by the Senate guards. It looks so elegant and sleek

[@danielcollinspda9936]

I noticed how the senate guard number was a reference to George Orwell's 1984, with the imperial senate guards acting almost like the thought police, and Palpatine like Big Brother was watching and listening to everything

[@HolyknightVader999]

The Imperial Senate Guards were pretty cool; a lightsaber pike, some training in handling lightsaber-wielding enemies, and their job was to keep the Senate in line.

[@edmccurdy469]

Nora...the online therapist...for weak people who don't know how to get over anything... yea I'm sure the guys at D-Day were crying for their moms and complaining that their dad never loved them. Just comes off as anakain saying "I hate sand"

[@samkelly3660]

Imperial guards can take a jedi in single combat

[@rc59191]

They might not be the best but they got one of the coolest uniforms and weapons by far. I'm writing a fan fiction book that has my character's father as a member of them.

[@Idkidkidk716]

The Senate guard cannon fodder for any person willing to attack the senate building that pretty much sums up their role and skill.

[@cj_wit_the_lunch_tray3231]

Just opened my eyes to republic non clone personnel. They should expand on this 🔥💯

[@Akhen.]

Man im so glad you keep making these... they bring star wars i love to life

[@no1ofconsequence936]

I have the idea of the senate guards' armor, weapons, and traditions actually originating from the wars between Coruscant and the Mandalorians, dating as far back as before the taungs' expulsion from Coruscant. Their martial training is specifically designed around circumventing armor, as it would be completely impractical for them to carry the weapons necessary to get through beskar. That said, it's just my idea and I doubt I'd ever get to write for Star Wars.

[@razvanciobotaru3089]

The amazing video, I know dis Guard is important, but it's more important than I thought and they look much cool in blue.

[@leopoldpferdmann6980]

Something I never knew I needed nor wanted, but something I did.

[@princeofpokemon2934]

The Senate Guards also got a humiliating and ironic new job. They were assigned to guard a museum on Coruscant. It's ironic because they were part an old government that was replaced with an Empire.

[@elwinkline6387]

I love the added lore knowledge on the transformation from Senate Guards to Royal Guards. Fun video.
