Shortly afterward, Sifo-Dyas was killed by the Pyke Syndicate at the behest of the Sith, resulting in the Sith's takeover of the clone trooper project. Jango Fett was chosen by the Sith to serve as the template for an army of clone troopers. Undeterred by the lack of support from the other Jedi, Sifo-Dyas secretly contacted the Kaminoans -a species of experts in cloning, native to the planet Kamino -and commissioned them to create an army of clone soldiers for the Republic without authorization from either High Council or the Galactic Senate. He therefore advocated for the creation of an army to ensure the defense of the Galactic Republic, but his views were ultimately rejected by his peers and he was cast out of the Jedi High Council.

Years before the Invasion of Naboo, Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas came to believe that the galaxy would soon become engulfed by war. ' A bounty hunter called Jango Fett.' ―Lama Su and Obi-Wan Kenobi We modified their genetic structure to make them less independent than the original host.' ' They are totally obedient, taking any order without question. Their armor, weapons, and training inspired generations of white- armored warriors, especially the First Order stormtroopers who were also trained from early childhood to become super-soldiers. Clones initially served as Imperial stormtroopers in the New Order, but were eventually replaced by human recruits and conscripts. Sidious subsequently assumed absolute power as the self-proclaimed Emperor of the Galactic Empire. All across the galaxy, the clones turned against their generals, slaughtering them and storming the Jedi Temple on Coruscant under the stewardship of the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Chancellor Palpatine, discovered by the Jedi to be the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, as well as the reason behind the Clone Wars, branded the Jedi as the enemies of the state and issued Order 66, with the latter being a calling for the annihilation of the Jedi Order. Galactic history was forever changed by a hidden behavioral modification biochip implanted in every clone, which was part of the Sith's plot to destroy the Jedi. They were loyal to their Jedi Generals and the Supreme Chancellor though some clones questioned their service, leading to isolated cases of desertion and treason, most were proud to serve the Republic as it was the only life they had ever known. For three years, clones fought the Separatist droids on all fronts across the galaxy. As the Separatist Crisis gave way to open war, the Galactic Senate empowered Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine to call the clone troopers into action, leading to their debut on the battlefield of Geonosis. They were also designed to age at twice the rate of natural humans, accelerating their growth and making them ready for combat in a decade's time.

Clones were modeled on a human template, the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, although their genetic structure was modified to make them less independent and more docile than their progenitor. After Sifo Dyas' death, the project was taken over by the Sith. The Clone Wars was named after the Republic's clone army, which became symbolic of the conflict that had spread throughout the galaxy after a millennium of peace.Ĭlone troopers were grown on the planet Kamino at the request of Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas, who commissioned the Kaminoans to build an army for the Republic. During the last years of the Galactic Republic, clones formed the backbone of the Republic Military that waged war against the droid armies of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Representing the future of galactic warfare, clones were designed to be far superior to battle droids. But without it, we clones wouldn't exist.' ―CT-7567 'Rex,' on being a clone trooper Ĭlone troopers, also known as Republic troopers, Republic troops, Republic soldiers, Regs, and nicknamed the ' Boys in White,' were highly trained soldiers in the Grand Army of the Republic.
