I think we could work with 3 potential eras if all goes right (I'm going to use years defined by the Legends universe seen in Star Wars: The Ultimate Visual Guide as reference.):
Key: B.B.Y. = Before Battle of Yavin A.B.Y. = AfterI. The Dark Times (19 B.B.Y. - 0 B.B.Y.) - Essentially the approximate time between episodes 3 and 4. The fun thing is that we can have Jedi, but at this point they are largely on the run.
II. The New Era (c. 4 A.B.Y. - onward) - Everything after episode 6. Gives us more flexibility with the narrative, but depending on when it starts, the number of Jedi would be minimal.
III. The Old Republic (25,000 B.B.Y. - 19 B.B.Y.) - Probably the most flexible option, and the presence of Jedi is much more common. It may be best in terms of this era to take it closer to the time period of Star Wars proper.
I'm just throwing some general guidelines, since I don't want to micromanage your RP, since it is yours after all, Domo. The choice is yours!
Thanks mido, this is quite helpful, I've chosen 1 but you'll have to wait and see what it is! :^)
