Ahsoka forgets a major canon event.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary In Ahsoka episode 7, Sabine completely ignored one of the first big Star Wars stories Lucasfilm told in the new Disney canon while talking to Ezra. After Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2014, the Star Wars canon was wiped clean . This was to make room for new films, books, comics, and video games, including the sequel trilogy and The Mandalorian.

One of the first big pieces of the new canon began in 2015, with the release of Star Wars: Aftermath by Chuck Wendig. This was the beginning of the Aftermath trilogy, a series of three books that detailed the year between the Battles of Endor and Jakku. This year saw the remains of the Empire on the run, and the Rebellion becoming the New Republic and taking back the galaxy. The intense year of fighting all led to 5 ABY, when the New Republic finally defeated the Empire at Jakku.

Sabine Completely Ignores Chuck Wendig's Aftermath Trilogy While Sabine is discussing what transpired in the years he has been gone with her lost Jedi friend Ezra Bridger, she makes a distinct mistake. She claims that the Empire was defeated at Endor, which is not the case in Star Wars canon. This has led to much discussion about how much the TV producers like Dave Filoni actually care about the non-screen canon, like the Aftermath trilogy.

Why Ahsoka Episode 7 Ignored The Aftermath Trilogy This error, however, can be rationalized within canon. It can be said that the Empire was formally defeated at Endor, and the ensuing battles were not the Empire, but an Imperial Remnant. But the real reasoning for this error is to stick close to what general audiences know: the films. Audiences saw the Empire defeated and the Emperor killed at Endor, so that's what the characters reference.
