New Mandalorians

The New Mandalorians was a Mandalorian pacifist movement that controlled the Mandalore system in the Outer Rim from 40 BBY to 19 BBY. Following the annihilation of Mandalore's biodiversity due to countless conflicts, the New Mandalorians sought change founded on the virtues of pacifism, neutrality, and nonviolence, which placed them at odds with the Old Mandalorians, who fought to maintain the militaristic ways of their ancestors. After a brutal civil war, they governed Mandalore and slowly began to rebuild under the leadership of Duchess Satine Kryze. After two decades of rule, however, the New Mandalorians were dissolved following a coup in 19 BBY by Death Watch, a traditionalist terrorist cell.
