The First Order is a fictional military movement and rump state[2] in the Star Wars franchise, introduced in the 2015 film The Force Awakens. Formed following the fall of the Galactic Empire after the events of Return of the Jedi (1983), the First Order seeks to destroy the New Republic and rule the galaxy as an autocratic military dictatorship. It is the central antagonistic faction of the sequel trilogy. Aside from the films, the First Order appears in various related Star Wars media.
In The Force Awakens, the First Order is commanded by Supreme Leader Snoke and is fought by the Resistance. Snoke's apprentice, Kylo Ren, is the master of the Knights of Ren, a group of elite warriors who work with the First Order. In the 2017 sequel The Last Jedi, Ren kills Snoke and becomes the new Supreme Leader. In the 2019 film The Rise of Skywalker, the First Order allies with the Sith Eternal, a cult led by the former galactic emperor Palpatine, who is revealed to have been secretly controlling the First Order via his puppet ruler, Snoke, prior to the latter being usurped by Ren.[4][5]
