12 Crucial Gaps In The Star Wars Timeline That Canon Still Hasn"t Filled In

It often seems there's a Star Wars story for every character and event, however, there are several crucial gaps that haven't been filled in the canon timeline. The old Star Wars Expanded Universe, now branded as "Legends," had almost 40 years to develop each storytelling era, but even that often had large gaps dictated by George Lucas himself. That entire timeline was declared non-canon after the Disney acquisition, and the current continuity has done an impressive job producing new content in less than a decade. Still, every new story also adds more questions about galactic history. This leaves plenty of room for future Star Wars projects to fill in these missing gaps in the timeline.
The Star Wars franchise excels at raising questions that demand answers, and gaps in the timeline are a big part of that. Audiences were excited about the prequels because they promised to reveal what happened with Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, while the hype for the sequels came from finally learning what happened to Luke Skywalker and his friends after Return of the Jedi. The demand for stories that fill in these gaps creates a unique opportunity to add to the world of Star Wars and build excitement for new releases. There are already 12 major gaps in the Star Wars canon timeline that audiences would love to be filled.
12 Star Wars Still Hasn't Shown The Great Purge Of Mandalore One of the most recent gaps in the Star Wars canon timeline is the Great Mandalorian Purge. The Mandalorian has offered some details through exposition, and The Book of Boba Fett showed the Night of a Thousand Tears through flashbacks, but the Purge itself has not been the focus of any story. It's crucial for Star Wars to show the Mandalorian Purge because it leaves a major gap between Star Wars Rebels season 4 and The Mandalorian season 1. This missing gap will become more apparent with the live-action debut of Sabine Wren (played by Natasha Liu Bordizzo) in Ahsoka, given her character inspired Mandalorians to fight the Empire - and arguably set this whole chain of events in motion.
