Hi! This is an essay about my favorite movie and guess what I'm going to tell you all the saga of star wars.
First this movies are science fiction, since I was younger I have been liked the science fiction, war and paranormal topics and this saga has war and science fiction, so that’s why I like this saga.
Before topics like this were specifically nerds, so if you talk about it you were a nerd. Today these topics are more usual and easy to understand that is fiction. The first movie, the episode IV appeared in 1875 directed by George Lucas. So I'm going to tell you this exiting saga. The history of the battlefield Jedi is a long and complicated one. The original Jedi Knights were largely pacifist, tending to concentrate on discoveries in the Force and studies in enlightenment. They eschewed combat for the most part.
However, as their ranks grew, the Jedi were approached more and more often to aid in various planetary skirmishes. They originally entered as peace-keepers and negotiators, but several conflicts escalated to the point where the Jedi could no longer remain neutral. It was then that their awesome battlefield powers were truly unleashed.
The ancient Sith Wars marked the emergence of the Jedi warrior. In those chaotic times, Force-users considered the art of war as important as meditation and the pursuit of self-knowledge. They adhered to a strict code of honor and discipline, and their organization was quite martial in nature.
On the battlefield the Jedi could bring many powers to bear. The obvious strength of any Jedi is his lightsaber, an incredibly powerful weapon capable of tearing apart virtually any alloy or armor in seconds. Additionally, though Jedi are lightly armored, their uncanny instincts and foresight allow them to evade and minimize attacks, essentially giving them shields of a different nature. As Jedi develop their power, they gain the ability to cloud the minds of their enemies, over considerable distances, and can turn enemy units against one another and recruit allies among the weak-minded.
The history of Star Wars truly begins with the fall of a man named Anakin Skywalker, once the most promising young Jedi in the galaxy. As a young boy, the Force-sensitive Skywalker was discovered by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn on the remote planet of Tatooine. The Jedi believed the young boy to be 'The Chosen One' and presented him to the Jedi Council for training, but Yoda and others were concerned that Anakin would prove dangerous. Qui-Gon was slain, but Jinn's own pupil, Obi-Wan Kenobi, vowed to take the boy as his Padawan learner, despite the Council's reservations. Anakin grew in power, but felt frustrated by Kenobi's instruction, and was tempted by the dark side. He succumbed to its evil power and was consumed by the persona of Darth Vader, Lord of the Sith. He ceased to be Anakin Skywalker, and became a monster of darkness and evil. As Lord Vader, he helped exterminate the Jedi and ensure the total domination of the galaxy by his Master, the Emperor Palpatine. In classic Sith fashion, the Emperor was served by his dark apprentice, and Vader become his Master's enforcer throughout the Empire. Feared and hated by the Imperial elite, Lord Vader felt no compunction about destroying officers and soldiers he saw as incompetent or disloyal. His reign of terror nevertheless motivated the Imperial Navy to pursue the Rebellion with a renewed vigor. The cunning tactics and merciless strategies of Darth Vader were instrumental in the Imperial campaign to take control of the galaxy. The Dark Lord often acted as general in local actions, heading up ground charges and air assaults himself. His skill in his customized TIE Avenger was unparalleled and his mere presence in battle often caused opposing forces to flee in terror. With the Imperial Navy, Lord Vader led several missions
