Forum:KB:New Republic Dictatorship?

There is a singular line in the Wizards of the coast sourcebook, Galaxy of Intrigue: "Arani eventually becomes the head of the company, and as the New Republic devolves into a dictatorship..." What specific period of time, or events, or written works does this line refer to? I'm not familiar with most of the works after Return of the Jedi. After reading our New Republic article, I see that leadership changes hands several times, but I don't know which regime this line specifically refers to. (I suspect that if someone were to actually call it a dictatorship, it'd be removed as POVish.) SinisterSamurai 14:23, June 3, 2011 (UTC)
