Mandalorians: What’s in a Name? -or- Are Jango and Boba Fett Mandalorians or Not?

Mandalorians. Warriors and hunters behind sturdy, customized armor and T-visor helmets. What makes a Mandalorian? And what makes someone not a Mandalorian? My fan theory posits that Jango Fett and Boba Fett were Mandalorians at a time, but certain events pushed them from a culture that once welcomed them…

A sandstorm rustles and wails outside, and then Anakin gives some insight into the cruel methods used to keep slaves in line.
