Similarities

In the Original Series, the Colonial president, Adar, dies when his flagship battlestar, Atlantia is destroyed during the Battle of Cimtar. The office of the president is never filled during the course of the series.

In the Re-imagined Series, the Colonial Secretary of Education, Laura Roslin, attends the decommissioning ceremonies for the outdated battlestar, Galactica, which is scheduled to be transformed into a museum of the Cylon War. After the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, Roslin becomes the new interim President of the Twelve Colonies.
