ALuke Skywalker
BPrincess Leia

ABlue
BGreen

ATatooine
BAlderaan✓
CJedha

💡Alderaan's destruction was depicted as peaceful — it had no weapons — making it a deliberate symbol of imperial tyranny. The planet's population of roughly two billion people made it one of fiction's largest single acts of genocide.
6What is the name of Anakin Skywalker's mother?Reveal ›
APadmé
BShmi✓
CBeru
DJocasta

AThat Leia is his sister
BThat the Emperor is evil
CThat he is Luke's father✓

8What species is the bounty hunter Bossk, seen in The Empire Strikes Back?Reveal ›
ARodian
BTrandoshan✓
CWeequay

CTwo lightsabers must always be carried by a Sith

ARevenge of the Sith
BThe Force Awakens
CThe Last Jedi
