Sith Empire (Post–Galactic War)

"This Empire is greater than its, we will strike fear into our enemies and use that fear to crush the Jedi Order and the Galatic Republic forever."

- Imperial News Net

This Sith Empire was founded by Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Tomus, as a dark side organization in direct opposition to the Galactic Republic and its Jedi defenders. Built upon the remnants of the, and a host of Jedi converts.

Fall of an Old Empire
After the end of the the Sith Empire grew weaker due to power plays within the Sith countless Imperial soldiers and high ranking officials were killed due to power play between the Sith, many Sith such as Darth Wraith, Darth Angice and  knew the Empire would eventually destroy itself each one of them made plans to usurp the 's power and change the Sith, ironically both Malgus's and Angice's plans further weakened the Empire which ended in both of their deaths.

Wraith's plan was to take control of the Dark Council by pretending to the a plan he learned from  who, unsuccessfully tried and was killed by the. Wraith made preparations, but before they came to fruition the Republic attacked multiple Sith worlds. Wraith used a computer virus and uploaded it to the Holonet which corrupted all data about Dromund Kaas from all of the Republic and Jedi databases and navicomputers. Dromund Kaas was spared from the Jedi's and Republic's wrath but at the cost to nearly all their military might and the lose of so much Sith knowledge.

Wraith spend many years serving the Dark Council who had made them selves immortal due to who during the Cold War discovered a way to become immortal and powerful, Wraith was also made immortal by Darth Nox, Wraith knew that the Dark Council and the Sith would eventually destroy what little they had for peaty power Wraith petitioned the council to rebuild the Empire but they didn't listen so he decided to gain allies and create an uprising which would over throw the Dark Council.

Wraith's Rule
Wraith's Uprising took over two hundred years but he managed to overthrow the Dark Council and killed them he took control and made changes to the Sith way but the power went to his head, he wanted a Sith only army. The Imperials knew this and made plans to overthrow him but Wraith killed the traitors and re-organized the Imperial Military Complex to suit his needs.

Wraith became a tyrant he made rules to exploit the people he forced them to build temples to honour him, he made them worship him. Wishing to be stronger he preformed rituals on those who rebelled against him; these rituals took their life force and power and added it to his own. Wraith took on many apprentices each in the end tried to kill him each failed and he used them to become stronger. By the year 2,980 BBY he had all but crushed out any hopes at rebellion.

Eventually in 2,977 BBY, Wraith was overthrown and killed by his newest apprentice, Darth Tomus. After a bloody Civil War his apprentice went on to rebuild the Empire in his own image.

Forging a New Empire
Darth Tomus with his knowledge of the began looking for an  and a Rakatan databank, he found them and brought them back to Dromund Kaas where he ordered his men to construct the Forge which was built out of the abandoned space station orbiting Dromund Kaas, he also used the Infinite engine to build several cloning facilities around Dromund Kaas. Once facilities were constructed he cloned men to be construction workers for the Forge, he then began searching for a strong solider in which to clone for his Clone Army.

After months then years of building, the Empire was almost as strong as it was seven centuries ago. Tomus created the Imperial Parliament and ordered that the nearby star systems be reconquered in the name of his Empire, the conquests when well and soon after the conquered systems would join his Imperial Parliament.

Tomus reorganized the Sith so that they would not be able to use the Imperial military for power plays. Tomus went as far as creating his own Sith Code to stop any Sith from turning on one another, Tomus still promoted the use of rage and other emotions to fuel the Sith's power but he made it so they had to control there rage out of combat. The Imperial laws were also changed as well such as slavery, it was changed so that any slave with Force-sensitivity was to be trained as Sith, others were not a bother to the everyday workings of the Empire.

Eventually the Sith species contacted Tomus and requested that they be allowed back into the Empire, Tomus debated this with the Moff Council and agreed to allow them back in. Once the Sith species settled back on Dromund Kaas.

Tomus began to order scouts to find new star systems to conquer to bolster his Empire, his scouts discovered many new systems and Tomus had them conquered or in special case used diplomacy to take the systems. One such case was Confederated Government of Systems, upon its discovery Tomus requested to negotiate with the leader of the Confederate Government, during the meeting Tomus used the force to the minds of the leaders to join the Empire.

War with the Republic
Wanting to go to war with the Republic without upsetting the citizens of his Empire, Tomus had Imperial Intelligence fabricate false intelligence about a growing Sith threat so that the Republic would attack one of the Empires worlds making it seem like a pre-emptive strike against the Empire thus it would make the citizens and governing bodies wish to retaliate. Before long Imperial Intelligence sent false reports about the planet Kidroma knowing that the Republic will attack out of fear. Just as planned the Republic launched an massive assault on the planet, bombarding what they thought were Sith Temples and weapons plants, what they really were bombarding were cities and settlements. News reached all the Imperial controlled worlds of the Republic's attack and Tomus used this to rally the people to go to war with the Republic for revenge.

The Imperial War the bloodiest war known to the Republic as the Empire rolled into the known galaxy and started their conquest, the Empire fully supported the war and almost immediately took most of the in a single swoop. With the Republic hard pressed to defend itself the Empire made multiple pushing into the and  capturing key Republic strongholds and bases. With most of the Outer Rim and Inner Rim conquered the fighting became more more intense.

Many Jedi perished in the fighting some gave into the dark side to fight the Clone troopers and the Sith. The Jedi Council noticed their dwindling numbers and recalled most of the Jedi from various battlefields, which allowed the Empire to easily conquer those planets.

Assault on the Jedi Temple and peace
After the Jedi Order was weakened, the Sith's tactics in the war became far more aggressive the Jedi were unable to cope with the pressure of the Sith tactics some Jedi turned to the dark side and joined the Sith rather than fight them.

Two years after the war started, Darth Tomus gave the Republic a surprising offer: the chance to negotiate peace. The Republic could not afford to ignore this opportunity, and the Jedi Council agreed to it, seeing the war as un-winnable. Diplomats on both sides came to and began discussing terms of peace. But Tomus had one last trick to play.

An elite Sith army invaded Coruscant. After a team of Sith, led by Darth Vedas, destroyed the defence grid in the Jedi Temple, Darth Tyraness ordered an invasion and bombardment of the planet. After Coruscant's defences were defeated, the Sith raided, sacked and then destroyed the Jedi Temple and held the planet hostage.

With no other choice, the Republic diplomats on Alderaan signed the uneven treaty which became known as the Sith Treaty.

The Cold War
"This peace is lie, the Emperor is giving the Republic and Jedi a chance to surrender. But I've reports that confirm that the Republic has renewed there efforts to defeat use, but that will not work as we have the Forge and the Force."

- Darth Vox, after the First Battle of Coruscant.

With the end of the Great Imperial War, an uneasy stalemate was formed between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic. During the Cold War the Empire consolidated its power across conquered territories and quickly ended all resistance movements on worlds of importance. The Sith Order also expanded during the Cold War with a boom in Force-sensitive’s being discovered, the boom forced new Sith Academy’s to be built to deal with the influx of new acolytes.

While not as brutal as the earlier war, the Cold War saw explosive skirmishes erupt around the various regions of space thus beginning a new period of warfare in the galaxy as both sides vied for dominance.

The Great Imperial War
"This war is the last war the Sith shall wage against the Republic and Jedi. Our revenge will be complete."

- Darth Vox commenting on the Great Imperial War.

When the Empire re-engaged in war with the Republic the Empire was extremely successful against the Republic due to the Cold War preceding. The Moffs battle plan completely threw off the Republic commanders and left the exposed. quickly fell under the Empire. The victory on Corellia embarrassed the Republic and quickly sent despair throughout the Republic's citizens.

was the next target of the Empire the Republic put up a great defense against the Empire but eventually the planet fell. With two Core Worlds captured the Republic attempted to but Tomus ignored it and continued the War. With Republic resources dwindling, many high ranking officials began to implement. This change in tactics only slowed down the Empire's advance deeper into the Core Words.

The Jedi were hard pressed to help the Republic, many of there own fell to the Dark Side and joined the Empire while the Second Jedi Civil War depleted their numbers to under twenty thousand. On top of that the Sith sent their best s to hunt down and kill the remaining Jedi. The Jedi were opposed to the Republic's idea of using super-weapons against the Sith Empire, the Jedi Council knew that the war couldn't be won conventionally some of the Masters began to help the Republic's efforts in building super-weapons. During the course of the war came under attack by the Empire. The Jedi fought hard but were slaughtered. With the all Jedi dead, the hyperlanes of Tython became unstable forcing the Sith to retreat.

The Core Worlds began to fall one by one battles where being fought on, , , and. Coruscant was threatened with invasion due to the fighting getting progressively closer. Eventually Tomus led the final push to capture Coruscant and kill the. The Sith Order sent Sith to assault the Jedi Temple, while Tomus and his apprentice lead a large Imperial force to the Senate Chamber.

The desperate commanders of the Republic had placed a bomb in the Jedi Temple should it fall into Sith hands—the Jedi had no idea— once the Sith assault began many generals and Commanders began to bicker on where their forces should be concentrated. Eventually word of the Sith assault reached them and they quickly choose to detonate the bomb hoping it would weaken the Empires attack and cause them to retreat, they didn't the resulting explosion killed all the Jedi in the temple as well as their Sith attackers.

The war ended when the Galactic Senator's were killed and the Supreme Chancellor publicly and officially declared unconditional surrender to the Sith Empire. The remnants of the Republic fleet scattered throughout the galaxy and were hunted down by the Imperial fleet. The worlds once apart of the Republic joined the Imperial Parliament and new galactic laws were issued.

The Jedi's numbers quickly dwindled to just under a hundred and many of them went into hiding or joined the Republic Remnant.

Galactic Rule
"At last the Sith rule the galaxy! The Republic is no more."

- Darth Tomus

Government and politics
The organization of Tomus' Sith Empire was surprisingly similar to that of ' and Darth 's. Tomus created the Imperial Parliament to control the star systems the he conquered he also gave the leaders of each of the conquered territories a Sith Lord to "advise" them. Tomus created the Imperial Security Force a police force that would make sure each of the conquered worlds were upholding the laws of the Empire, the Security Force was mainly made up of clones but the majority of the senior staff where normal veterans.

Imperial Diplomatic Bureau
The Imperial Parliament set up the diplomatic bureau to handle the political details of any new race of government wishing to join the Empire. Tomus used the diplomatic bureau to promote the Empire to new star systems.

Imperial Intelligence Agency
"Eyes and ears everywhere in my Empire, spies implanted within the ranks of my enemies its perfect."

- Darth Tomus talking about the Imperial Intelligence Agency.

Tomus often used Imperial Intelligence Agency to spy on territories that he conquered and have them monitor and remove any one who would speak out against his rule, the agency was well funded almost better than the Military and the Moff Council hated that Tomus knew that if he blindly attacked his enemies he would lose more than he would gain. Tomus allowed the Imperial Parliament to use the agency but if any of the Lords used them against Tomus, the agency was allowed to eliminate the Lord or Lords.

Moff Council
The Moff's in Tomus' Empire played a different role instead of being a governor of a sector of space a Moff was a military rank only the most distinguished military strategists and leaders could be promoted to Moff. The Rank of Moff was above Admiral, Moff were allowed to give orders to both the Navy and the Army. Admirals and Generals are not allowed to question a Moffs orders but they are allowed to plan out the missions that the Moff sends them on unless a Moff wanted to complete a mission a certain way but that was rare.

Sith Inquisition
"The Inquisition is a shadow organization within the Empire, they kept tabs on all Sith to make sure they didn't betray the Order and they were the Emperor's executioners as well."

- A Jedi Master talking about the Sith Inquisition The Sith Inquisition acted as investigators. They made sure that no Sith was trying to grab power and take over the Empire. It was founded by the War hero Darth Tortel as a way to make sure the Sith follow the rules that Darth Tomus set. They dealt with investigations on assassination attempts on Tomus' life as well as spy on other Sith. They trained to combat and resist Sith techniques and were conditioned not to fall prey to.

Society and culture
"This Empire will be strong the faults of the past will not affect my new Empire."

- Darth Tomus talking about his Empire.

The Imperial population was much smaller when compared to the Galactic Republic the previous Empires views on the Imperial changed with Tomus rule, he separated the Sith from the Imperials eradicated the Sith’s Elitism. The average citizen was loyal to the Empire and many aspired to become Imperial Agents, which was seen as the highest achievement. Many of the Force-sensitive’s population aspired to become Sith and entered the academy. Force-sensitive’s where treated better than most which led to an unspoken animosity between Imperial’s and Sith for the first few years of the rebuilding Empire, this quickly vanished when the Empire assaulted the Republic.

Amongst the Empire, slavery was a common practice. Many slaves became part of the Sith Empire as prisoners of war, or even by being transferred to Imperial ownership after their previous masters were defeated.

The Sith Empire also abandoned the previous Empires racism and freely allowed aliens to join the Empire and treated them fairly. Chiss, Duros, Kaleesh, Twi'leks, Aqualish and Zabraks accepted by the Empire and as well as the Alien races from the Unknown Regions and Nexus Region.

Military
"This Military is the largest I've ever seen."

- Grand Moff Killian talking about the Empires military force.

Upon their return to known space, Tomus' Sith were well equipped for battle. The new Sith Empire's fleets were primarily dominated by newly created vessels during the seven year period of rebuilding thanks to The Forge, they were also supplemented by a host of starships built by other races they conquered. The Forge itself served as a primary staging ground and command center, later on Tomus relocated the command center to Dromund Kaas.
