Imperial Party

The Imperial Party was a militaristic subfaction of the Galactic Republic's Core Faction that pushed for the reformation of the Galactic Republic, a loose democratic political union, into a tight-knit autocracy. The Imperialists, as members of this party were known, met their goal in 19 BBY when Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine established the Declaration of a New Order, at which point the Imperial Party was brought forward as the Galactic Empire's central party. During the Imperial Period, every high-profile member of the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order (COMPNOR) was also a member of the Imperial Party or the very similar though more recently-formed Imperialist Party.
