The Galactic Empire, (GE) known throughout the story as The Empire, is a galactic movement led by Emperor Palpatine to replace the Galactic Republic and establish Sith rule throughout the galaxy. The Republic, which had stood for over 25,000 years, was dissolved after intense political turmoil and the end of the Clone Wars. After the shutdown of the droid army, followed by the slaughter of the other Confederacy of Independent Systems leaders and the Jedi Purge, Palpatine proclaimed himself as Emperor and declared that this would be the "first Galactic Empire", ruling with near-absolute power. A Separatist holdout called the New Confederacy of Independent Systems is standing in the Imperials rule, which makes The Empire bring back returning classics such as Republic Fighters from the Clone Wars to fight against the heroic Battle Droid Rebellion.
