The Star Wars Databank is the official Star Wars site's reference on characters, locations and technology. Entries are checked when they are posted but may not be kept up to date. When they are up to date the movie sections are "G-Canon" and the Expanded Universe sections are "C-Canon".
Each article progresses by describing the subject's incarnation in the movies if applicable, and moving on to Expanded Universe material; finally, there is often a "Behind the Scenes" section which describes the subject's real-world history, inspiration, and production.
Famous quotes containing the words star and/or wars:
“The eager fate which carried thee
Took the largest part of me:
For this losing is true dying;
This is lordly man’s down-lying,
This his slow but sure reclining,
Star by star his world resigning.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Wars and revolutions and battles are due simply and solely to the body and its desires. All wars are undertaken for the acquisition of wealth; and the reason why we have to acquire wealth is the body, because we are slaves in its service.”
—Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
