However , Star Warslore just introduce all - novel competition to the Sith that blow they ’re actually more powerful than the Jedi , especially in terms of their threat - level to the Sith - ruled Empire .
WhenSheev Palpatine corrupted Anakin Skywalker , execute Order 66 , and then regroup the Republic into the Galactic Empire , he effectively eliminated the threat of the Jedi . The Jedi Order was eradicated beyond repair , and the only Jedi who survive the great purging live in concealing , and in fear .
The more modern Sith of the Imperial era had no reasonableness to consider the Jedi a terror to their mogul , specially when Darth Vader was pass his Inquisitors across the galaxy to find and slaughter any and all remaining Jedi . What ’s ironical , however , is that in constitute the Sith ’s seemingly unsubduable power wrapped within the unbreakable racing shell of the Empire , Emperor Palpatine unwittingly create perhaps the gravid terror to his normal : the Schism Imperial .
Emperor Palpatine ’s Order 66 slaughtered nigh all the Jedi , but that was n’t even close to the smart part of his plan , & Star Wars substantiate it .
Star Wars’ Schism Imperial Could Be A Greater Threat To The Sith Than The Jedi
InStar war : Darth Vader#42 by Greg Pak and Adam Gorham , Darth Vader is in open conflict with Emperor Palpatine , as he is attempting to raise an army of droids and cyborg he can control with his mind ( a trick he larn from the Scourge ) to challenge the Emperor ’s rule . While conducting these experiments on Mustafar , Vader is approached by Administrator Sly Moore , who was tasked by the Emperor to endeavor to reject Vader . However , Moore does just the opposite .
Administrator Moore go to Mustafar not in an endeavour to wipe out Darth Vader , but to enter him . Moore let on that she ’s a extremity of a private society embedded within the Empire that seeks to take over Emperor Palpatine , and the grouping shout itself the Schism Imperial . Moore wants Vader to be the Schism Imperial ’s new drawing card , which would give Vader the power and influence he ’d need to actually take down the Emperor and rule the Empire himself - and Moore ’s system of logic is surprisingly well-grounded .
The Schism Imperial Is Using Palpatine’s Own Power Structure Against Him
The Empire ’s hierarchy is one that is base entirely on fright and obedience . Everyone takes unquestioning orders from those above them , all the room up to the Emperor himself . This means that all one would have to do - if they were high enough in rank - is go rogue , and start making their own fiat for their subordinate to blindly follow . That ’s why the Schism Imperial is such a threat to the Emperor , not because its single extremity are muscular like the Jedi - indeed , they ’re all administrative official - but because they have the nerve to use their political power and military program line to beseem the needs of their mysterious majestic rebellion rather than those of the Emperor , effectively reduce Palpatine out of his own Empire .
If Darth Vader decided to lead the Schism Imperial , the group would be taking a major stair forwards in their attempted coup , as Vader would not only be the highest ranking among them , but he could also challenge the Emperor in forcible , force-out - wielding armed combat . Plus , Vader would have the prompt backing of major political human dynamo within the Empire upon his ascension to the throne if the coup was successful . However , even without Darth Vader , the Schism Imperial still proved to be more of a threat to the Imperial Sith than the Jedi , as they have the powerfulness to subtly stultify and reorganise the Empire by using the Emperor ’s own fear - based world power structure against him , while the Jedi were eradicated before the Empire was even in full established inStar Warscanon .
