    Except the rebels want to restore a democracy in the Original Trilogy.

    Technically, it’s never stated which form of government (if any) the rebellion wants to create after the empire is gone.

      I’ve only seen Andor so I don’t know if the lore was stated or implied in the original trilogy, but aren’t the rebellion an alliance of multiple revolutionary groups with different ideas for what comes after, but more broadly want to restore the Republic?

        Andor was more poliyical than anything before in Star Wars. And even there, they had anarchists. (But yeah, they lean towards the system that got them the empire)

          I mean, that system did last for a thousand years before the Empire came about, and a broadly similar system lasted for thousands more before that. Restoring the Republic doesn’t mean restoring it to the same state it was in immediately before it fell.
