In Legends, Luke founds the New Jedi Order, a reformed successor to the prequel-era Jedi who eschews outdated traditions and allows their knights to live far healthier lives. Luke Skywalker was expected to rebuild the Jedi Order following Return of the Jedi, but canon and Legends depict vastly different iterations of his generation. While Legends’ New Republic eventually reforms into the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, canon’s New Republic was destroyed by the First Order. The New Republic becomes rife with corruption far sooner than the Legends version, leaving it impotent against the First Order and leading Leia Organa to form the Resistance. Unlike its Legends counterpart, canon’s New Republic does not endure over a decade of war with Imperial warlord factions, and thus it demilitarizes after only a year. While hardly shown in The Force Awakens, the sequels have the Rebellion establish the New Republic and Luke Skywalker has initiated a new generation of Jedi.
