Mandalorian Guard

The Mandalorian Guard, also known as the Mandalorian police was the security force of the New Mandalorian led Mandalorian Government Council on the planet Mandalore. They served as peacekeepers. During the Clone Wars, Mandalore faced constant threats of invasion, attacks by the Death Watch splinter group, and internal politics. Duchess Satine Kryze felt that the Mandalorian Protectors, who stood separate from much of the greater Mandalorian police force, were the only ones she could truly trust.
==Description==
===Organization===
The Mandalorian Guard, however, was susceptible to corruption, including members of the Mandalorian secret service. Many Mandalorian Guards were killed during the takeover of Mandalore by the Death Watch and Shadow Collective and the subsequent death of Duchess Satine. Prior to the exposure of his true colors, Governor Pre Vizsla was accompanied by members of the Guard when welcoming Duchess Satine and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi in their visit to the moon Concordia. The Office of the Mandalorian Prime Minister controlled much of the Mandalorian police force, but Kryze's royal guards stood apart from their command.
They were sometimes led by police captains, such as Patrok Ru-Saxon.
===Equipment===
The Mandalorian Guard utilized electropoles, riot shields, stun batons, Aka'jor-class shuttles, Buirk'alor-class speeders, and hover taxis. Members of the guard were recruited from every Mandalorian clan.Star Wars Encyclopedia of Starfighters and Other Vehicles
==Behind the scenes==
The Mandalorian Guard first appeared in "The Mandalore Plot," the twelfth episode of the second season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The Encyclopedia and Databank entries for the Kryze's Mandalorian Protectors—both simply titled "Mandalorian Guard"—conflate the standard Mandalorian police and Kryze's protectors by using an image of the former, whereas the main body text describes the latter.
