When it comes to the entire history of civilization Knight Errant suggested that during the New Sith Wars there were Republic baronies that were very independent. But i would love to see a Republic lived for a much shorter amount of time. Love to see more interstellar alliances from good guys and the bad guys with very different approaches to power and promoting good and evil and being around for a long time not just a couple of centuries. Knight Errant not taking off was a small tragedy for me.
