War bond

War bonds were debt securities issued by a government to help fund military operations during times of war. During the Clone Wars, the Galactic Republic issued such bonds, encouraging regular citizens to do their part in the war effort in that fashion, since the army was only made of clones. The then-young artist Janyor of Bith notably created a propaganda poster inciting citizens to buy such bonds.
