Darth Vowrawn Report (Line of False Time)

Foreword
''As loyal servant of great Sith Empire, as member of Dark Council for last 47 years, I can not anymore be quiet about dismal and critical situation in the Empire. This report is dedicated for true rulers of Sith Empire. For Darth Marr, as real ruler of Dark Council, Darth Malgus as military leader and copies for other important leaders of Sith Empire.''

Chapter I.: Economic Situation of Sith Empire and Corruption
''As head of Sphere of Logistics and superior to minister of logistics, I have duty to informe Dark Council leaders, that despite our great and decisive victory in Great Galactic War, for past many years, economic situation of Sith Empire rapidly deteoriate. From 1 ATC to 5 ATC, average growth of IGDP was 3-4%. Since 6 ATC to 10 ATC, it was only 1-2%. From 11 ATC, IGDP decreasing by 2%. Economic and trade activities on Hydian Way and Perlemian Trade Routes decreased by 15% in past five years and decreasing with every increasing of taxation. In fact, as much as we increasing taxes, we decreasing revenues from taxes! Ministry of Logistics forecast that in ten years, economic and merchant activities on Hydian Way will collapse and few years later, even Perlemian Trade Route will be abandoned, if we will not stop increasing taxes. Taxes are under control of Dark Council and Sith Emperor, and Dark Council and Sith Emperor both did many mistakes.''

Indirect taxes led to dramatic decreasing of consumption among population and direct taxes increasing ended with bankruptcy of 5% of private enterprises and merchants.

Chapter II.: Lossing of Planets
''Taxes on merchant routes, indirect and direct taxes, are not only problems. Another great problem is so-called planetary taxe. I trust that this tax should be abolished! Planetary taxes led to rebellions and defecting of imperial planets to independent side. They are not joining Galactic Republic, because planetary taxation in Republic is worse and higher, but they are forming independent planets, not supporting Empire, neither Republic. Just in past three years, while imperial diplomats and armies were able to secure 39 planets, we lost 12 planets. Its less, but most of these planets are much more richer and prosperous then secured planets.''

''One example! Planet Rago. Small planet, with few millions citizens, but with large amount of ore and rare minerals, include Cortosis, Lignan, Hibridium, Gold and Carbonite! Planet rebelled after taxation increase and killed imperial garrison, then, they proclaimed independency and we were not able to recapture planet.''

''Other reasons for planetary lossing are brutal atrocities committed by imperial troops and Sith lords, strict and harsh rule of imperial governors, massive militarization and destructive industrialization of planets. We must change our policy towards planets, or they will be soon Republic-aligned and our Empire will fall apart.''
