Imperial Confederation

The Imperial Confederation, known simply as the Imperium and the Empire, was the galactic government established to replace the collapsing Galactic Systems Confederation. The Imperial Confederation saw the Lords of the Sith once again ruling openly, though the face of the Sith remained hidden, after 10 years of hidden control of the Systems Confederation.

The Imperial Confederation kept most institutions of the previous state in place. The Parliament remained the Legislative Branch, and still appointed members to the Confederation Council, though the council had lost it's status as the Executive Branch which had passed to the Imperial High Council, who's ten seats were held by appointment from the monarch, thus were held exclusively by Sith Lords.
