The Battle of New Orleans - B1 Battle Droid

​​@titanspeakermandc2294the Trade Federation originally supported the United States of America during the war for independence, but eventually geopolitical and economic interests shifted, leading the CIS to support the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. The Galactic Republic subsequently aided the Union, effectively making the American Civil War a proxy war of the wider Clone Wars. When the Union won, the CIS lost its sole remaining Earthling ally, thus losing all influence it previously had on the planet. The CIS was subsequently pushed out of the Solar System entirely, which in turn prevented the CIS from successfully charting a backdoor hyperspace route to Ilum in order to seize the planet for its supply of Kyber crystals. These Kyber crystals would have been transported to the location of the then-under construction Death Star, so it is good that the United States was victorious.

@titanspeakermandc2294 I'm aware of the CSA's full name. Bit of a mind bender, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has a rival mutual defense organization that rarely gets talked about when discussing its largest member, Russia. The Commonwealth of Independent States. C.I.S. is real XD

A little historical fact this battle happened about 2 weeks after the peace treaty was signed. Neither side knew about it.

It was a decisive victory for the droid army

[@lukea4195]

The Treaty of Ghent had been signed in Belgium but said that fighting would continue till both Governments ratified it. They were all well aware of it, but Andrew Jackson and - i assume Peckingham, too - had orders to keep fighting till it was done. Congress approved the treaty in February of 1815.

And the war started because the Brits didn't tell the Americans they stopped kidnapping yanks for their ships fast enough.

[@theanomaly2587]

The fact that so many historians overlook the Trade Federation's support of the Americans during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812 really is a shame. The Trade Federation originally supported the United States of America during the war for independence, but eventually geopolitical and economic interests shifted. This lead the Trade Federation to support the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War, which began two years before the Clone Wars were sparked at Geonosis. The Galactic Republic, upon outbreak of the Clone Wars, subsequently aided the Union, which effectively made the American Civil War a proxy war of the wider Clone Wars. When the Union won, the CIS lost its sole remaining Earthling ally, thus losing all influence it previously had on the planet. The CIS was subsequently pushed out of the Solar System entirely, which in turn prevented the CIS from successfully charting a backdoor hyperspace route to Ilum in order to seize the planet for its supply of Kyber crystals. These Kyber crystals would have been transported to the location of the then-under construction Death Star, so it is good that the United States was victorious. Unfortunately, this alliance between the Galactic Republic and the United States of America would be short-lived as the Galactic Republic's then-Chancellor Palpatine reorganized the thousand year-old Republic into a Galactic Empire. Relations slowly but surely soured between the United States of America and its Galactic partner, culminating in Emperor Palpatine's dissolution of the Imperial Senate, which was seen as a betrayal of democracy by the United States. The United States subsequently began to covertly harbor soldiers and officers of the Alliance to restore the Republic, colloquially known as the Rebel Alliance or the Rebellion. By the time of United States President Benjamin Harrison's administration, the newly-formed New Republic had captured Coruscant from a remnant of the Galactic Empire. Ultimately, the New Republic and the United States officially reestablished good relations with each other at the Treaty of Washington (1893), which contributed to the New Republic gradually getting involved in Earthling affairs once again. The German Empire and its allies saw this as a threat, but could do nothing. Eventually, the German Empire drew the United States into the First World War, which did not end nicely for Germany as America began to use blasters to clear trenches alongside shotguns. The First World War ended in an Entente Victory. This has been a brief history of the Earthling nation known as the United States of America's relations with the wider galaxy.

The revised lyrics (Still a WIP) In 19 BBY, we took a little jaunt, along with General Grevious to the planet Coruscant. We took a little oil and we took a little fuel, and we met the bloody Jedi in a long and bloody duel. We fired our blasters and the Jedi kept-a coming. There weren't as many as there were a while ago. We fired once more and they began-a running. Down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones. We looked across the skylanes and we saw the Jedi fight, and there must've been a hundred of them with their sabers burning bright. They jumped so high and they made the sabers hum, and when we fired blasters we saw them turn and run. We fired our blasters and the Jedi kept-a coming. There weren't as many as their were a while ago. We fired once more and they began-a running. Down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones. Old Durasteel said we could take em by surprise if we didn't fire our blasters till we looked them in the eyes. We held our fire till we saw the look of fear, and we opened up our blasters for everyone to hear. We fired our blasters and the Jedi kept-a coming. There weren't as many as there were a while ago. We fired once more and they began-a running. Down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones. They ran through the concrete and they ran through the buildings and they ran through the tunnels where a bantha couldn't go. They ran so fast that the the wampas couldn't catch em, down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones. We fired our cannons till the ammo was all dry, so we took a speeder bike and we really made it fly. We rigged a thermal detonator and we watched the speeder zoom, and when the thermals detonated we made em all go boom. We fired our blasters and the Jedi kept-a coming. There weren't as many as there were a while ago. We fired once more and they began-a running, down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones. They ran through the concrete and they ran through the buildings and they ran through the tunnels where a bantha couldn't go. They ran so fast that the wampas couldn't catch em, down the streets of Coruscant along with all the Clones
