Padme Amidala
"Padmé Amidala of Naboo (born
Padmé Naberrie, known as
Her Royal Highness, Queen Amidala of Naboo, from
33 BBY to
24 BBY, and as
Her Excellency, Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo, from
24 BBY until her death) was the younger daughter of
Ruwee and
Jobal Thule Naberrie, and the sister of
Sola Naberrie. Later in her life, Amidala became the secret wife of
Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and the mother of
Luke Skywalker and
Leia Organa Solo, two of the most important figures in Galactic history. She was also the grandmother of
Jaina,
Jacen, and
Anakin Solo, as well as
Ben Skywalker. This relationship made her great-grandmother of
Allana, Jacen Solo's daughter, and an ancestor of
Nat,
Kol, and
Cade Skywalker.
Amidala was the democratically elected
Queen of
Naboo before representing the
Chommell sector as a
Senator in the
Galactic Senate. As Queen of Naboo, Amidala helped liberate her people during the
Trade Federation's invasion in
32 BBY, thus becoming one of the most respected political figures in
the galaxy. Throughout her relatively short life, she played a vital role in the politics and events surrounding the
Clone Wars, where Amidala and other senators were responsible for creating the foundation for any chance of
rebellion--
