A couple other thoughts: I wonder how the influx of all those Old Republic Credits affected the galactic economy and the New Republic? The show clearly showed that Old Republic credits were highly valued in the New Republic era in the show, but that value would surely plummet with the influx of all those credits that had been hidden for decades on At Attin. There are many historical examples where nations that had a sudden influx of extra cash often met with declining currency values, inflation, and weakened economies…

With a treasure hoard like that, you could afford to build a whole fleet of Star Destroyers equipped with planet killing weapons!  :D  ;)

I was thinking a short post credit scene showing Mon Mothma suddenly having a huge discretionary budget would've been funny.
This is the way.

Can we all agree that the supervisor was pretty awesome?

Awesome point, McMetal 8)

I know we’ve all seen how Dave Filoni, John Farveau, etc. are trying to use some of these live action and animated shows to provide a more logical explanation and foundation for the events in the ST…
