Episode 7<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Hundreds of years before The Phantom Menace<\/em>.<\/p>\n How we know:<\/strong> In the episode itself, Taijin mentions that it\u2019s been hundreds of years since the Sith were destroyed. As that event happened approximately 1000 years before The Phantom Menace<\/em>, that gives us a good hint at where this takes place on the timeline. It also means that the elder is quite old himself to be a survivor from that time.<\/p>\n Episode 2<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Between Revenge of the Sith<\/em> and A New Hope<\/em><\/p>\n How we know:<\/strong> We see Jay\u2019s flashbacks to the Great Jedi Purge and see him as a Padawan escape from the clone troopers. Beyond that, Jaba is in control of Tatooine and Boba Fett is active as a bounty hunter.<\/p>\n Episode 4<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Between Revenge of the Sith<\/em> and A New Hope<\/em><\/p>\n How we know: <\/strong>The story follows F, a Padawan in hiding after the Great Jedi Purge at the end of the Clone Wars. The inclusion of an abandoned droid army makes the time period even clearer.<\/p>\n Episode 6<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Between Revenge of the Sith<\/em> and A New Hope<\/em><\/p>\n How we know: <\/strong>With the presence of an imperial star destroyer, Professor Mitaka being a Jedi in hiding, and T0-B1\u2019s fight against an Imperial Inquisitor, it\u2019s pretty easy to tell when this one takes place.<\/p>\n Episode 8<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Between Revenge of the Sith<\/em> and A New Hope<\/em><\/p>\n How we know:<\/strong> This episode is set at the height of the Galactic Empire when the Jedi were extinct and the Rebellion still in its infancy. The entire plot is centered around how Och\u014d, without any hope of resisting The Empire, would rather side with it to assure a future for her world than fight against it.<\/p>\n Episode 3<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Shortly after The Rise of Skywalker<\/em><\/p>\n How we know: <\/strong>The fact that both the Sith Empire and New Republic are mentioned as opposing forces\u2014and that moderns ships like Star Destroyers and X-Wings are seen in the episode\u2014are solid hints at the time period. But more than that, the director of the episode, Hiroyuki Imaishi, has made the time period explicitly clear in interviews<\/a>.<\/p>\n Episode 9<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> After The Rise of Skywalker<\/em><\/p>\n How we know:<\/strong> This episode takes place in a time where both the Jedi Order and the Sith exist out in the open. However, what places it in the future rather than the distant past is the fact that Tsubaki\u2019s ship is a B-Wing derivative\u2014a ship type that did not exist until the Galactic Civil War.<\/p>\n Episode 5<\/p>\n When it takes place:<\/strong> Hundreds (possibly thousands) of years after The Rise of Skywalker<\/em><\/p>\n How we know: <\/strong>Not only does the opening narration to the episode make it clear that it is set in the distant future, the director, Kenji Kamiyama, has said so in interviews<\/a>.<\/p>\n Episode 1<\/p>\n Where it takes place: <\/strong>In an alternate timeline.<\/p>\n How we know:<\/strong> While the story could arguably fit into the nebulous future post Rise of Skywalker<\/em>, the official announcement of the tie-in novel<\/a> refers to the episode as \u201can alternate history pulled from Japanese lore.\u201d<\/p>\n Top image source: Star Wars<\/a> on Twitter.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/E_3rj5qVcAUeDfU.jpg?w=700&ssl=1\")
