Diplomatic Corps

Diplomatic Corp
With the complexity of intergalactic commerce, politics and treaties comes the need for good negotiators. With the role of the Jedi being maintainance of peace and justice in the galaxy, the diplimatic corp was often the first group to discover or work with whatever issues begin to boil and churn among members of the Senate. Often these disputes could be resolved, with plain old good negotiations or a Jedi mind trick or two. Peaceful resolutions to conflict which avert armed struggle are economical from a monetary and personell point of view. Why interupt manufacturing or trade with a war? Why shed blood or cause loss of life needlessly? The societies of the galaxy are better served with smooth commerce, and a minimum of supply interuptions associated with armed conflict. However, when parties are unreasonable or otherwise unable to visualize the benefit of peaceful coexistence, the Jedi are quite capable of intervening and controling the situation. Many of the Diplomatic corp were Jedi Knights who had endured extreeme hardship or conflict in battle, thus in the minds of these Jedi, clear are the concequences of failed negotiations. Quick to initiate control of a potential battle, these Jedi know the right time to act. Thus the Dilpomatic corp was an odd mix of warriors seasoned and capable, who with that experience work even harder to avert the disaterous consequences of war. Yet when the inevitible use of arms becomes imminent, atunement to the force gives the Jedi courage to act with the element of suprise, or superior tactics when needed, often bringing resolution to battles which otherwise could rage unchecked.
