"Defending Your Freedom" is a tune created by The Emperor's New Clothes, a pro-Imperial minga band. This song appeared on their album compilation, Totally Patriotic, which could be purchased during the era spanning from 0 ABY to 4 ABY. Just like all music from The Emperor's New Clothes, the Imperial Board of Culture gave "Defending Your Freedom" its official stamp of approval.
Simon Smith and Eric Trautmann mentioned "Defending Your Freedom" in Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim, a 1993 extension for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game by West End Games.
