    How many Jedi are there during their peak? I think it’s around ten thousand jedi. Compared to the galaxy population of 100 quadrillion sentient beings spread across the galaxy, I’m not too surprised a lot of people thought they’re a myth.

      Okay, but we’re not talking about a bunch of inconsequential people. This is an ancient order of magicians who has a lot of control over their government. And then one of the magicians becomes the emperor of the galaxy with his magic power. And all of that when Han Solo was alive. Young, but alive.

      It’s like saying a knowledgeable guy like Han Solo in our world wouldn’t know about Reagan getting shot. He was born in the 70s, he took history classes, he read up stuff on his own, he heard older people talk about it… but he didn’t know it happened.

        TIL Reagan got shot. I’m not American, so I don’t really care about US presidents that don’t concern me directly (meaning the ones in power during my adulthood), but it’s not like everyone knows that.
