Padme Amidala Naberrie

Padmé Amidala of Naboo (born Padmé Naberrie, known as Her Royal Highness, Queen Amidala of Naboo, from 33 BBY to 25 BBY, and as Her Excellency, Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo, from 25 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 Solo, 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 fought bravely to liberate her people during the Trade Federation's invasion in 32 BBY, thus becoming one of the most respected political figures in the galaxy. In 22 BBY, following the Military Creation Act, Anakin Skywalker was assigned to protect her, and following the Battle of Geonosis, the two secretly married on Naboo.

Senator Amidala participated in many events of the Clone Wars, both political and military. She also stayed devoted to her husband and became pregnant. Around the end of the war, she doubted the motives of the Republic. In 19 BBY, appalled by the dissolution of the Republic and the creation of the Empire, she signed the Delegation of 2000 along with Bail Organa, Mon Mothma, and other senators. After Anakin slaughtered many Jedi, including younglings, Obi-Wan Kenobi came to her to tell her about Anakin's transformation to the Sith Lord Darth Vader. She refused to believe him, and went to Mustafar to find her husband. Thinking that she had betrayed him, Vader gripped his wife using the dark side and knocked her down. Amidala was taken to a medical facility on Polis Massa and apparently lost the will to live. She delivered two twins and named the boy Luke and the girl Leia. In her dying words, she stated that there was still good in Anakin, but, sadly, never saw his redemption. She was buried in Theed as a hero of her people.

Throughout her relatively short life, she played a vital role in the politics and events surrounding the Clone Wars. Amidala and other senators were responsible for creating the foundation for any chance of rebellion.
