This article explores the tragic story of the clones in Star Wars, highlighting their creation for war, lack of choice in fighting, and mistreatment by the Empire after Order 66.
The Star Wars franchise is full of tragic stories, famously those of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, but its most tragic belongs to characters who were an essential part of these two Jedi's stories. Tragedy is a key part of the Star Wars prequel trilogy, a story that details how one of the galaxy's greatest heroes fell to the dark side and became Darth Vader. Because of this, many characters were caught in the crossfire, making it a devastating time period for the galaxy as a whole.
There was, however, one group in particular that was perhaps the most caught between the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire. These characters were quite literally created for the devastation that would result from the fall of the Republic, while unknowingly contributing to its fall in the process. They were forced to serve a system that would end up spitting them back out anyway, and had no choice in executing one of the deadliest purges in the galaxy's history. These were the men that Anakin and Obi-Wan commanded during the Clone Wars. Quick Links The Clones Have Star Wars' Most Tragic Story Forced To Fight & Kill Against Their Will Close From far before their creation through all their deaths, there's no doubt that the clones have the most tragic story in all of Star Wars. These are men who were bred for war, a war that wasn't even their own, and were given no choice in fighting that war on behalf of the Republic, under the leadership of the Jedi. Thankfully, these Jedi generals - at least, most of them - treated their men well, and respected the identities the clones established for themselves, but this relationship only made it more heartbreaking when Order 66 occurred.
