If Yoda defeated Palpatine...
Would the Republic still consider the Jedi as traitors? By the time of the duel, Palpatine had already told everyone about the Jedi “conspiracy” against him, and Jedi had already lost a lot of popularity during the war to begin with. So do you think Jedi would have been still considered as outlaws? Or were the citizens not brainwashed enough at that point? Would they have allowed the Jedi to rebuild their order?
