Thrilling Mandalorian Theory Sets Up An Imperial Civil War After Thrawn’s Return

A compelling theory sets up an Imperial civil war in The Mandalorian and beyond as a result of Grand Admiral Thrawn’s return. The Mandalorian and accompanying shows like Ahsoka are setting up the Empire’s bid to return to power in the galaxy, and Grand Admiral Thrawn is a big part of that plan. As one of the Empire’s most formidable leaders, Thrawn could use his terrifying tactical prowess to undermine the New Republic’s efforts to restore peace and freedom to the galaxy. It’s why the Jedi Ezra Bridger sacrificed so many years of his life to prevent Thrawn from taking control of Lothal and other planets in the Star Wars Rebels series finale, and why Ahsoka Tano was so determined to stop his return in Ahsoka.
