The Dark Lord implemented his Order 66, an order implanted into the clone troopers brains which when given the soldiers killed off; the past, present, and future Jedi. Though many didn't escape the purge, a number of Jedi did with the help of Master Athena Skywalker they were able to leave the system safely. As well as a few other Jedi Masters Yoda, Obi-Wan, Athena, Anakin and Knight Ahsoka safely escaped the slaughter. Those Jedi that was saved by Master Athena have been living on an Outer Rim planet far away from the center of the Empire, their number included many younglings and padawan's whose master were killed in the attack on the temple. Two of those padawans were still lucky to still have their masters. Besides those Jedi, there were more who survived the extermination of the Jedi. Master Yoda took shelter on Dagobah a swamp-like planet. Master Obi-Wan and his wife Athena and their son James took shelter on Tatooine. Knight Ahsoka and Captain Rex with the rest of the 501st hide on a planet in the Outer Rim. Master Anakin and his wife Padme had to change their identities because as the 'Hero with No Fear' and the former queen of Naboo they were very recognizable. Also to protect their children Luke and Leia from harm they took it step further erasing their existence from the galactic database doing the same for all of their friends and family. So nowadays history says that Masters Athena, Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Yoda are said to be killed during the Clone Wars. Knight Ahsoka whereabouts are unknown because she left the order before Order 66 was initiated. Former Queen Padme Amidala died in childbirth along with her child. Her 'body' was buried in the Hall of Queens on Naboo. Though in reality, the body buried there was a lifesize decoy of Padme created by the cloners on Kamino the only one besides Padme's family who knew about the deception was a former handmaiden of hers.
