How is Mandalorian post ROTJ yet they have a baby Yoda? If it's 5 years later why are people talking about the Jedi like some myth and most have no idea what the Jedi are.
People call him Baby Yoda (since it's a baby and they don't know the name of the species), but it isn't Yoda himself, Yoda died during "Empire Strikes Back" years ago.
It's the same species though (they don't have a name for the species yet, but it may be revealed later), and some speculate it is the child of Yoda and Yaddle.
If you ask me, i don't think Yoda ever had sex though
IF that was the case, they do make a cute couple!
Maybe the Babys real name is "Yaddle" or "Vissy"?Favreau has said that The Mandalorian is set five years after the fall of the Empire in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983) and 25 years before the rise of the First Order, the authoritarian regime that is firmly in control of the galaxy when Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015) begins.
In terms of Star Wars years, Return of the Jedi is set in 4 ABY (after the Battle of Yavin) and The Force Awakens is set in 34 ABY, which means The Mandalorian takes place around 9 ABY.
This is a period of time when the New Republic, the democratic government formed by the Rebel Alliance following their victory over the Empire, has only a tenuous hold on the galaxy — especially its lawless outskirts.
