The title of Mandalore was reserved for the sole leader of the Mandalorian people.
A number of Mandalorian warriors held the title throughout canon and legends history,
and in this video I'll be going over all of them.
Starting with the shorter canon list Pre Visla was the only true Mandalorian that we know as Mandalore so far.
As the leader of Deathwatch he overthrew Duchess Satine with the help of Darth Maul,
gained control of the planet, and assumed the title.
He was in turn killed in single combat by Darth Maul
who then took control of the remaining members of Deathwatch.
This kind of makes him Mandalore in a sense, although he never officially claimed the title.
Now lets move on to the much more extensive legends list.
Mandalore the First and his followers were Taungs that were driven off of Coruscant.
Around 7,000 years before the battle of Yavin, he took his people to the planet Roon,
which would one day be renamed to Mandalore, and founded the Mandalorian Crusaders.
Next up is Mandalore the Conqueror, and not much is known about him
other than that he continued the first legacy of the Mandalorian Crusaders and expanded their territory.
Mandalore the Indomitable was the next recorded Mandalore who existed about 3,000 years after the first.
During the Great Sith War, he was defeated by the Sith Lord Ulic Qel-Droma
and he pledged the Mandalorian army to his service
His forces were then sent to Onderon to fight the Beast Riders
and the Indomitable was killed in combat
His mask was then taken up by one of his followers who claimed the title Mandalore the Ultimate
In the aftermath of the Great Sith War, the Ultimate began attacking defenseless worlds
starting what became known as the Mandalorian wars.
He was killed in single combat by the Jedi Revan in the year 3960 BBY.
An unidentified Mandalore took up the title next and was the last Taung to do so.
In his final days, he was approached by Canderous Ordo, who had assisted Revan in the Jedi Civil War.
Ordo took up the dying warriors armor and became Mandalore the Preserver
The Preserver earned his title by reuniting the Mandalorian clans
and strengthening their military power.
He also assisted the Jedi exile Meetra Surik in defeating the Sith Triumvirate
About three centuries later a Mandalorian gladiator rose to become Mandalore
thanks to the meddling of the Sith Empire.
It was eventually revealed that he was nothing more than a puppet of the Sith
and he became known as Mandalore the Lesser
The warrior that challenged and killed the Lesser in single combat was known as Mandalore the Vindicated.
He continued Canderous Ordo's work of consolidating Mandalorian power
and strengthened their alliance with the Sith during the Great Galactic War
During that time, Shae Visla worked closely with the Sith to attack Republic worlds
including Alderaan and Coruscant.
She retired during the Cold War, but when the Eternal Empire invaded and killed Mandalore the Vindicated
Shae was selected to become Mandalore the Avenger.
Next follows a gap in history, but we do know of a Mandalorian leader named Ung Kusp
who lived prior to 1000 BBY
Mandalore the Uniter arose during the New Sith Wars
and under his leadership, Mandalorians prospered during the conflict
becoming a planet of industrial as well as military might
Mandalore the Destroyer was next, although not much is known about her history
other than that she was one of the few recorded women to hold the title
In the year 132 BBY, the Murdered Mandalore was killed by Durge
In retaliation, the Mandalorians captured and tortured the bounty hunter
burying him underground for 60 years
70 years after the Murdered Mandalore's death, the title was held by Jaster Mereel,
an accomplished soldier and man of honor.
He reformed Mandalorian warriors to become highly paid mercenaries
which saw backlash from the Vizla clan and Deathwatch.
When Deathwatch attacked the world of Concord Dawn
Mereel saved the life of a young orphan boy named Jango Fett and raised him as a son.
When Mereel was killed by Tor Vizla, Jango succeeded him as Mandalore.
Jango led his true Mandalorians to nearly destroy Deathwatch avenging the death of Mereel.
He then becameone of the best bounty hunters in the galaxy
and was chosen to become the genetic template for the Republic's clone army.
In return he requested a clone that he could raise as a son, who he named Boba Fett.
One of the early clones, named Spar, escaped Kamino before the Clone Wars.
When Jango Fett was killed in the battle of Geonosis,
he returned to Mandalore to form the Mandalorian Protectors
and he took up the title Mandalore the Resurrector.
They fought with the Confederacy of Independent Systems
until they were betrayed by Darth Sidious and led into a Republic trap.
Spar and two other protectors survived, but the Resurrector abandoned the title of Mandalore .
After the rise of the Galactic Empire, one of the surviving Protectors named Fenn Shysa became Mandalore
and organized a resistance against the Imperial occupation of the planet.
They were successful and Shysa continued to fight the Empire
until he was killed 27 years after the Battle of Yavin.
The title then passed to Boba Fett, who promised Fenn he would honor the position.
Fett led his people through the Yuuzhan Vong War and the Second Galactic Civil War, even in his old age.
Another gap in history takes us to the year 127 ABY and to Chernan Ordo
who had assumed the title by the time of the Sith Imperial War.
His forces were sabotaged in battle and Ordo was killed
The saboteur, Yaga Auchs, took over as Mandalore and pulled the Mandalorians out of the war,
and he was the final Mandalore seen in the legends timeline.
However, two more are briefly mentioned in various resource books.
Unfortunately, their histories are sparse at best and they're difficult to place within the timeline.
They were known as Mandalore the Binder and Mandalore the Hammerborn.
But that concludes the list of every Mandalore.
