I love how star wars is the story of a galaxy that starts with 2 very long lived empires over the course of like 50,000 years then 150 years of near constant wars and a dozen other factions.
I think the Hutt Empire deserved some mention. They were powerful enough to go to war with the ancient Republic and even up to the Galactic Empire, no one messed with them because the Hutts had so much wealth that they would have been a pain in the ass for the Empire to subdue. It wasn't until the Vong appeared that the Hutts actually met their match. Until then though, no one messed with the Hutts.
ahm... in Legends neither was adopted from the CIS... The DS-1 formed as the brainchild of Raith Sienar, the Wizard of Coruscant and CEO of Sienar Fleet Systems. Sienar told Tarkin about it because he himself considered it nothing more than an interesiting game of mind. Tarkin forwardeed it to Palpatine, who later on gave the planes to the Geonosians to further research the stuff. The TIE-Fighter also originated by Raith Sienar
Matt Parker the eternal empire was massive but it only lasted for a very short period of time, and he said he was only covering the ones that lasted a decent while. As for the hutt empire that was sort of a smuggling line or CRIMINAL empire rather than a military or government. So it wouldn't really fit in with the rest of them
Things I would like to see: A more comprehensive video on each of the factions, a video about the various symbols of the Galaxy, a video on the Hutts, a video on the Mandalorians, stuff about weapons, and much more Old Republic era content.
MaverickDoesEveryhing you mean from the very war they engineered? the whole thing was a false flag policy in order to destroy the jedi and the Republic from within.
D1RTY MART1N1 Dont blame the rebels for Alderann when it was a sith lord whom manufactured the whole war that destroyed the republic in the first place. the rebels knew what the costs may be to defy the empire but they would rather die to restore freedom and liberty to the galaxy tgan live under fear and tyranny.
What about the Hutt Empire I thought that they controlled a significant portion of the galaxy at one point? Also the Eternal Empire From SWTOR and whatever the Architects had going before the Infinite Empire. I Would consider anything that controls more then 1/8th the Galaxy Significant.
Wantaed the eternal empire only lasted a short while and he said at the begging of the video he was only covering the major ones that lasted a decent amount of time... As for the hutt empire, that was like a Criminal empire rather than a military or government. So it wouldn't fit in with the rest of the governments and studf
While the Eternal Empire Only lasted a shot while it still had control over the entirety of the Galaxy I would think that's enough to put it on the list very few Governments achieved that. As for the Hutts I thought that at one point they did have a ligament empire Pre-Old Republic but after the Infinite empire, But I could be wrong its been awile before I've read up on the matter.
The Rebel Alliance became the New Republic, then the New Republic became the Galactic Alliance/Galactic Federation of Free Alliances. The Galactic Empire became the Imperial Remnant, then the Imperial Renmant became the Fel Empire. After the Sith-Imperial war the Galactic Alliance and the Fel Empire merged and alongside the Jedi Order became the Galactic Triumvirate.
Not much is really known about the Triumvirate since the Expanded Universe isn't making any comics on them for some reason, but the Triumvirate is ruled by a Emperor, the Leader of the Jedi Council and Military Commander (So democracy is pretty much dead)
I would like to hear more about the New Republic because it had a lot going for it as it was supposed to be the Middle Earth type 4th age government of the Star Wars Universe but collapsed; also, I enjoyed the idea of a rotating government capital system and the New Republic embodied it. Thanks for your time.
I hope they make a 3 movies that are based around the Yuuzhan Vong because they wound really interesting and it would be amazing to watch on the big screen.
There's not much about the Eternal Empire at this point, but it would interesting to see a video about it, given that it did effectively conquer the galaxy and rule it for at least several years.
+Star Wars Explained Thank you, this video was really needed! There were more different governments under the name "Sith Empire" in the Old Republic era, I mean they were constantly beaten by the Republic and Jedi, so they had to reorganize it after every lost conflict. And you forgot the Eternal Empire!!! By the way can you make a similar list about all the Imperial fractions and successor states after Endor? That era is really chaotic, I think a video like this would help to see thing more clear.
thanks to the incompetence of New Republic military... the Jedi Order and the Imperial Remnant fought much better against the Vong... as did (former) Republic Fleet commander General Etan A'Baht, but he had been sidelined by the Surpreme Commander of the NR Forces, Sien Sovv, and therefore left the NR military and instead went and forced the Vong to a standstill in his homesector
Big Ben The New Republic is the government that was formed by the Alliance to Restore the Republic shortly after the Battle of Endor. The Resistance is a private military that was founded by Leia Organa to combat the First Order, since the New Republic would not do it.
Here's some backstory. After the end of the Galactic Civil War, the Alliance become the New Republic, and signed a thing with the remnants of the Galactic Empire, the Galactic Concordance I think, which allowed the fractured remains of the Empire to peacefully leave and go and do their own thing outside of the Republic. The deal was that each government would leave each other alone, in turn for peace. But, all this did was give time for the empire to lick its wounds and rebuild its military. Then about 30 years ABY (canon) they returned as the First Order. The republic decided not to do anything about it, so Leia decided to leave the senate and form the Resistance, due to the Republic's refusal to do anything about the First Order. So yeah, that's basically what happened with that.

"The Essential Guide to Warfare - The Audiobook (Extended Edition)"... not that I wouldn't like to hear it... the ETGW is one of my favourite SW Books :D
I always loved the idea of the CIS. As an average citizen of the Republic and not knowing all the behind the scenes stuff, it would be hard not to support their cause.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me. All hail the Sith Empire!
You forgot the Sentarian Remnant: They were the yuuzhan voungs worst enemy, that fought them in their home galaxy and retreated to the starwars one in the unknown regions.
@@howardthealien2606 Strictly speaking, the Eternal Empire was around for at least a few decades, as Valkorion had to seek for the Eternal Fleet and prepare for the conquest of the Galaxy. So it was around for quite a while, even before the Sith Emperor took control. Though not a lot was known about it. Still, the Eternal Empire launched raids in 3636 BBY and it continued to exist until 3630 BBY when it was re-formed into the Eternal Alliance, which is longer than the CIS lasted. And when the Eternal Empire under Emperor Arcann attacked both the Republic and Sith Empire, neither stood a chance. The Eternal Empire had gained total naval superiority against both sides a few months into the war and the capitals of both were blockaded. The Eternal Empire was clearly a very major power, defeating both the Sith and Jedi and forcing them to pay tribute is a gigantic feat. Though it wasn't around for as long as the Republic, Chiss and etc.
+Steelstorm It would actually look like this: Old Republic, Zygerrian Slave Empire, Mandalorians, Galactic Republic, Confederacy of Independent Systems, Galactic Empire, Rebel Alliance, New Republic, First Order, Resistance
I nearly thought the Eternal Empire was called the Infinite Empire. There's been so many empires they need to be careful of what titles they've used. XD
You know when you think about it this whole canon and legends thing can be seen as two similar but different timelines like the ones in Star Trek. In both there is an imperial remnant. The difference is that in legends the yuuzhan vong arrive and destroy the republic. And the remnant helps save the Galaxy. In canon they never arrive, so the imperials become the first order and they destroy de republic...the republic is doomed in every timeline, the question is how they go down
*First Galactic Republic* I prefer a real democracy... *Second Galactic Republic* I said, a real democracy... *Galactic Federation of Free Alliances* Perfection...
I want to know more about the Imperial Remnant. What was the Government fellowing Palpatine's "Death" in both Legends and Canon? Who was in charge? Was it the same or different type of Government? Who spilt off from the Imperial mindset? Who become hardliners?
Let me dis spell this notion in two words: Yuuzhan Vong. They are the most ridiculous part of this whole plotline. Also: 25000 "years" of peace under one government but suddenly after this period shit hits the fan and 10 regime changes in 100 "years". It doesn't really make sense, does it.
TheHolySandal Republic had to stay united to oppose the Sith. Later it stayed united through times of peace. And then the Sith turned it into the Empire, later continuing their attempts to take over the galaxy, which caused more wars. That makes perfect sense
Makes perfect sense. Think of the the Balkans being part of the Hapsburgs for Hundred Years, then the regions goes through WW1, WW2, the Cold War, and the fragmentation of Yugoslavia.
It's a Confederation which is similar to a republic but with less centralized control and more power to individual planets or provinces. In the clone wars series they reveal that the CIS has its own senate and Count Dooku sits at the head of it.
Webby The Dino I guess they planned to install a complete capitalist society, since they were consisting of companies rather than people. But it was a hegemony, since the Sith had absolute power.
the companies and bankers were just the main financiers. the CIS mainly consisted of alien worlds who felt unrepresented in the republic. They were tired of the growing corruption and the culture of human exceptionalism on the rise that was pitting aliens as second class citizens.
Flattered Papyrus if you watch the clone wars then you'd know that the systems weren't aware of what dooku was doing on the front lines let alone the fact that he was a sith lord. I'm not arguing that bad things were done in the name of their government. just explaining the reasons why many systems felt they wanted independence.
I really want to know the Canon version of the how the rebels chose the Malik family crest( starkillers family's crest seen in the force unleashed games witch aren't cannon anymore) so I'm wonder what's the origin of the crest because it's the symbol of the rebellion and the new republic
We don't know it yet in Canon. It looks the most likely, that Sabine will design it sometime in the following episodes of Rebels, she uses now a very similar emblem.
Master Chief Keef Of Gondor I'm hoping that the new origin would be that the crest resembles the KOTOR (which is a bit canon thanks to rebels) Old republic crest.
In Legends there was an age (1100-1000 BBY) called the "Republic Dark Age", when the Republic nearly went out of existence, because of the New Sith Wars, but later was reorganized. So in Legends the term "Old Republic" is used when you are speaking about the era before the Republic Dark Age. In Canon the story is similar. The Old Republic had a great war with the Mandalorians, which led to the destruction of the Republic. But the with the help of the Jedi Order, the Republic was reorganized as the Galactic Republic sometime arround 1000 BBY (in Attack Of The Clones Palpatine said "I will not let this Republic that has stood for a thousand years be split in two.", so if we count with this it means the Galactic Republic was established in the year 1022 BBY).
tv9mpeti Avtually it was the war with the Sith Empire that destabilized the Old Republic, but wars with Mandalorians certainly contributed to its decline.
What about the Corporate Sector? Wasn't it (at least, in Legends) a separate entity, outside the realm of the Empire? (Also, I think the Corporate Sector is canon again, because it's mentioned at the end of the Tarkin novel as a place the rebels who stole the Carrion Spike could go and hide.)
Hutt empire and Eternal empire??? where are they? Eternal Empire conquered almost all of the galaxy and what they didnt conquer they forced them to obey their commands.... compared to rebel alliance I would say that Eternal empire did much more...
Mlg Sty the eternal empire only lasted a short while and he said at the begging of the video he was only covering the major ones that lasted a decent amount of time...
Mlg Sty As for the hutt empire, that was like a Criminal empire rather than a military or government. So it wouldn't fit in with the rest of the governments and stuff
We dont even know how long eternal empire did last and rebel alliance was only rebellion with leaders so they count as "criminals" on their own way too
+Primal Panda387 There was a Hutt Space which was a large portion of space controlled by Hutts. Just look at any map from EU (end even from Canon) there is always a big green area since c. 25000 BBY.
I get that not every galactic government can be mentioned or else the video would be extremely long, but, given the importance, size, and depth of the Eternal Empire of Zakuul and the Eternal Alliance, I’m disappointed it wasn’t mentioned at all.
Kevc00 Not much is really known unfortunately other than him desimating the alliance,the jedi order,almost crushing the fel empire and ruling the galaxy. I mean,we do know what his empire accomplished its just that its not detailed like any other empires written.
Kevc00 Well he was a tusken raider Jedi whom anakin confessed to about killing that whole tribe. He was captured by the yuzan vong and infected and experimented on. He returned way after the civil war founded his empire was dying due to yuzan vong experiments was frozen in carbonite then unfrozen then frozen again.
This is the Legends Universe (Star Wars Comics and most of the Games), the First Order is in the Canon Universe (The Movies, TV Shows and some Games). They are different timelines, also the First Order is a organization so if it was Legends it wouldn't be here (Keep in mind that the Rebel Alliance actually governed planets and people while the First Order works like a Terrorist Organization)
Fan update (Legend): Zakuulian empire led by Valkorian(Former Darth Vitiate) had a belief system that their emperor granted them power. As they destroyed a alliance strike team made up of Imperial and Republic troops sent out to kill the former Imperial Emperor; as only 2 survivors lived. 1 of them being Darth marr and the other being known as the "Outlander"(Or any of the 8 classes in the game Swtor). After destroying the strike team the Zakuulan empire lasted about 6 years before falling to the outlander's alliance but before the Zakuulan empire made the Old Republic era of the Sith and Republic forced into submission. (I cant explain this all but let anyone else explain or just play the game to know what the Zakuulan empire is)
It spans over 20,000 years of history. Look how many governments have risen and fallen, and how many wars have been fought in the past two centuries in real life.
My top 7 favorite galactic government Number 7 the infinite empire Number 6 the first order Number 5 the imperial remnant Number 4 the new Sith empire Number 3 the Sith Empire Number 2 the CIS And finally at number 1 The Galactic Empire
Do you mind making a detailed video about the ruling structure of the Galactic Empire (Ruling council, moffs, governors, directors, military, imperial senate, etc)
"Sith Empire would control significant galactic space until 1000 BBY." No. The original Sith Empire, the Hidden Sith Empire (ruled for most of its existence by Vitiate), and the Sith attempt to re-create the Eternal Empire were all Old Sith. The Old Sith died out by 3500 BBY. Then, there were essentially no Sith until the New Sith arose in 2000 BBY. They did come to wield significant power until most of them died and the Rule of Two was instituted in 1000 BBY, but I wouldn't call that a continuation of the Sith Empire.
1. Galactic republic (corrupt, lost their way but still was able to do the most good) 2. Confederacy of independent systems (besides being ruled by sith, the people weren't thy bad and it wasn't super corrupt 3. New republic (good intentions, but weak and unable to do anything) 4. Empire (no reason needed)

That makes perfect sense
Makes perfect sense. Think of the the Balkans being part of the Hapsburgs for Hundred Years, then the regions goes through WW1, WW2, the Cold War, and the fragmentation of Yugoslavia.
What kind of government is the CIS? Collectivist?
It's a Confederation which is similar to a republic but with less centralized control and more power to individual planets or provinces. In the clone wars series they reveal that the CIS has its own senate and Count Dooku sits at the head of it.
Webby The Dino I guess they planned to install a complete capitalist society, since they were consisting of companies rather than people. But it was a hegemony, since the Sith had absolute power.
the companies and bankers were just the main financiers. the CIS mainly consisted of alien worlds who felt unrepresented in the republic. They were tired of the growing corruption and the culture of human exceptionalism on the rise that was pitting aliens as second class citizens.
David Bessey Sure, and that's why they thought genocide and pulling innocents into the conflict is the way to go.
Flattered Papyrus if you watch the clone wars then you'd know that the systems weren't aware of what dooku was doing on the front lines let alone the fact that he was a sith lord. I'm not arguing that bad things were done in the name of their government. just explaining the reasons why many systems felt they wanted independence.
Alex you forgot "The Eternal Alliance" "The Alliance (Rules by the Outlander)" And "The Eternal Empire"
there needs to be a star wars game like battlefront that surrounds these main governments
Carlos Hernandez There's a mod for battlefront that adds 12 new factions a bunch of maps and units it spans from Old republic to the New Republic.
//sef. //polat I don't remember the name but its on the steam workshop
Could you go deeper into the history of the fel empire and how they were different from the galactic empire
I really want to know the Canon version of the how the rebels chose the Malik family crest( starkillers family's crest seen in the force unleashed games witch aren't cannon anymore) so I'm wonder what's the origin of the crest because it's the symbol of the rebellion and the new republic
We don't know it yet in Canon. It looks the most likely, that Sabine will design it sometime in the following episodes of Rebels, she uses now a very similar emblem.
Master Chief Keef Of Gondor Your icon is the same one I use for facebook
Master Chief Keef Of Gondor
I'm hoping that the new origin would be that the crest resembles the KOTOR (which is a bit canon thanks to rebels) Old republic crest.
Great video, would love to know more about the Imperial Remnant!
Mandalorians? Once conquered a chunk of the galaxy? Had a war named after them? Were a apart of the Sith Empire and weren't even mentioned???
Is implied just in the Clone Wars.
Do a video about Revan's Empire
What's the difference between the Galactic Republic and the Old Republic
Great Jamie The Old Republic refers more about the old one,before the new one.Or about the time era from 25000 BBY to 1000 BBY.
In Legends there was an age (1100-1000 BBY) called the "Republic Dark Age", when the Republic nearly went out of existence, because of the New Sith Wars, but later was reorganized. So in Legends the term "Old Republic" is used when you are speaking about the era before the Republic Dark Age.
In Canon the story is similar. The Old Republic had a great war with the Mandalorians, which led to the destruction of the Republic. But the with the help of the Jedi Order, the Republic was reorganized as the Galactic Republic sometime arround 1000 BBY (in Attack Of The Clones Palpatine said "I will not let this Republic that has stood for a thousand years be split in two.", so if we count with this it means the Galactic Republic was established in the year 1022 BBY).
tv9mpeti Thanks for the better explanation mate.
+Darth Harbinger No problem!
tv9mpeti Avtually it was the war with the Sith Empire that destabilized the Old Republic, but wars with Mandalorians certainly contributed to its decline.
can you do a video focusing on corusant how it was built and when and why did the jedi build a temple there?
What about The Eternal Empire....
Do a video on the various Imperial warlord factions such as Pentastar Alignment, Greater Maldrood, Eriadu Athority etc.
Long live the Sith Empire
Darth Sieberius Which one? The one before the Republic, the one during the "Golden Age of the Sith," or the one after the Great Hyperspace War?
The one with Darth Malgus.
Darth Sieberius sooooo the New Empire?
Old Republic era.
Pleased to meet you, Darth Sieberius. I am Darth Rien.
What about the Corporate Sector? Wasn't it (at least, in Legends) a separate entity, outside the realm of the Empire? (Also, I think the Corporate Sector is canon again, because it's mentioned at the end of the Tarkin novel as a place the rebels who stole the Carrion Spike could go and hide.)
Hutt empire and Eternal empire??? where are they?
Eternal Empire conquered almost all of the galaxy and what they didnt conquer they forced them to obey their commands.... compared to rebel alliance I would say that Eternal empire did much more...
Mlg Sty the eternal empire only lasted a short while and he said at the begging of the video he was only covering the major ones that lasted a decent amount of time...
Mlg Sty As for the hutt empire, that was like a Criminal empire rather than a military or government. So it wouldn't fit in with the rest of the governments and stuff
We dont even know how long eternal empire did last and rebel alliance was only rebellion with leaders so they count as "criminals" on their own way too
+Primal Panda387 There was a Hutt Space which was a large portion of space controlled by Hutts. Just look at any map from EU (end even from Canon) there is always a big green area since c. 25000 BBY.
I get that not every galactic government can be mentioned or else the video would be extremely long, but, given the importance, size, and depth of the Eternal Empire of Zakuul and the Eternal Alliance, I’m disappointed it wasn’t mentioned at all.
Darth krayts sith empire
Kevc00 The One Sith?
Nazmi Ahmad yes but more on the empire he built
Kevc00 Not much is really known unfortunately other than him desimating the alliance,the jedi order,almost crushing the fel empire and ruling the galaxy.
I mean,we do know what his empire accomplished its just that its not detailed like any other empires written.
That's a pity its one of the most interesting parts of legends
Kevc00 Well he was a tusken raider Jedi whom anakin confessed to about killing that whole tribe. He was captured by the yuzan vong and infected and experimented on. He returned way after the civil war founded his empire was dying due to yuzan vong experiments was frozen in carbonite then unfrozen then frozen again.
Can you do a video about "Jaden Korr" from Jedi knight jedi academy ?
What about the first order
This is the Legends Universe (Star Wars Comics and most of the Games), the First Order is in the Canon Universe (The Movies, TV Shows and some Games). They are different timelines, also the First Order is a organization so if it was Legends it wouldn't be here (Keep in mind that the Rebel Alliance actually governed planets and people while the First Order works like a Terrorist Organization)
Can you do a video on the second galactic civil war? Thanks! Your videos are awesome!!!
There has just never been peace in the galaxy, huh?
Peter Berg "Star Wars", get it now?
well its called "Star *Wars*" so....
There was between the Ruusan Reformations and the Clone Wars.
Fan update (Legend): Zakuulian empire led by Valkorian(Former Darth Vitiate) had a belief system that their emperor granted them power. As they destroyed a alliance strike team made up of Imperial and Republic troops sent out to kill the former Imperial Emperor; as only 2 survivors lived. 1 of them being Darth marr and the other being known as the "Outlander"(Or any of the 8 classes in the game Swtor). After destroying the strike team the Zakuulan empire lasted about 6 years before falling to the outlander's alliance but before the Zakuulan empire made the Old Republic era of the Sith and Republic forced into submission.
(I cant explain this all but let anyone else explain or just play the game to know what the Zakuulan empire is)
I know wars sell more but I think legends made an overkill. So many governments and wars
Pedro Velasquez
"Star Wars"
What part of "Wars" have you missunderstood?
It spans over 20,000 years of history. Look how many governments have risen and fallen, and how many wars have been fought in the past two centuries in real life.
Do a vid about Darth Wredd, the last Sith Lord.
YOUR THEORY IS CONFIRMED, THE DEATH STAR FIRES IN THE INTERNATIONAL TRAILER #2!!!
And through it all, Hutt Space endures...
can we just talk about the random "owl Jesus" In the description
Owl Jesus is a patreon supporter
thank you for making this using the legends story!
so much nicer
I'd like to learn more about the legends governments. Maybe the Yuuzhan Vong and the Infinite Empire.
The hutt empire was a huge part of Star Wars history.
But I loved the video
My top 7 favorite galactic government
Number 7 the infinite empire
Number 6 the first order
Number 5 the imperial remnant
Number 4 the new Sith empire
Number 3 the Sith Empire
Number 2 the CIS
And finally at number 1 The Galactic Empire
Long live the Empire!!
Old republic and the Galactic republic were two different governments, they just worked in the same way
I love how it's called the galactic republic, but it's really an empire just like every other galactic government
Do you mind making a detailed video about the ruling structure of the Galactic Empire (Ruling council, moffs, governors, directors, military, imperial senate, etc)
do a video on the history and all info about either the fel empire or the new sith empire
"Sith Empire would control significant galactic space until 1000 BBY."
No. The original Sith Empire, the Hidden Sith Empire (ruled for most of its existence by Vitiate), and the Sith attempt to re-create the Eternal Empire were all Old Sith. The Old Sith died out by 3500 BBY. Then, there were essentially no Sith until the New Sith arose in 2000 BBY. They did come to wield significant power until most of them died and the Rule of Two was instituted in 1000 BBY, but I wouldn't call that a continuation of the Sith Empire.
If you could do a video focusing on the Rakatan Infinite Empire, that'd be really cool.
HistoryBuff97 I agree. But not much is known about that, sadly.
You forgot the Hutt Empire. The Fell Empire is definitely something I would like to know more about,.
After the end of Knights of the Eternal Throne, would be nice to have a video about Vitiate/Valkorion
Great video
I'd Love to see a video on the First Order.
The penta star alignment
Pls make a video for the manufacturing system like the Sienar fleet system,Kuat drive yards and Incom Corporation.
1. Galactic republic (corrupt, lost their way but still was able to do the most good)
2. Confederacy of independent systems (besides being ruled by sith, the people weren't thy bad and it wasn't super corrupt
3. New republic (good intentions, but weak and unable to do anything)
4. Empire (no reason needed)
