@@GenerationTech I don’t really agree with that because while it was the Republic that turned into the Empire, it was also because the Separatist Military kept being relentless and merciless. Remember what happened to the Banking Clan? Palpatine had Dooku break his word to Clovis so it looks like the IGBC is corrupt and a Separatist pawn. Next thing you know, the Republic nationalizes the banks to protect its money. Now, this technically isn’t the fault of the other side of the CIS because it was the military doing all of this. Except the government is supposed to control the military, something we see the Republic do for better and worse. Meanwhile, Dooku and the Separatist Council keep defying the politicians and keep doing horrible things and even control the Shadowfeed. Again, Scipio. The leader of the Separatist Parliament gets killed because he disagreed with Dooku was doing. I mean to me, it sometimes looks like the Separatists were the true predecessor to the Galactic Empire instead of the Republic. Both had militaries that answered to the executive leader instead of a parliament or congress, both were filled nearly to the brim with officers who were corrupt and had no qualms with war crimes, and both had armies full of soldiers who don’t question atrocious orders. I keep thinking a lot of non-Jedi and non-Clone officers in the Republic Military looked at the Separatist Military, secretly admired them, and replicated the things they did in the Empire. Anyways, the Separatist in the conversation in the first comment has no right to really say that because not only did their side push the Republic into becoming the Empire, but it’s very leader was part of the freaking conspiracy. Despite real political concerns, the CIS was basically a puppet to force the Republic to transform into something far worse than its corrupt self could ever be. If anything, the Republic person should be saying “Are you happy? The Republic’s finally gone and the Senate is no longer a tool for corruption. Even the corporations that once plagued you (And also made up your military) are gone. Instead, you now have to contend with a totalitarian empire with a military that has no qualms and new corporations to exploit you. I may have voted in the Empire to protect me, but you presented the threat to me.”

@@GenerationTech, my man Avi Singh ain't petty like that, though. He's a chill dude.

Petty and wrong 😂 The separatists were the willing puppets of the sith and created the conditions for the rise of the empire. They weren't right about squat.

@@CedarHunt Now hold on. I’m pro-Republic, the Clone Troopers are my favorite characters, and the Separatists lose the high ground almost right away. Still, let’s be fair here. One: It’s highly likely most Separatist civilians including the politicians didn’t know what Dooku, the Separatist Council, and the military were doing on the frontlines. The Separatists controlled the Shadowfeed Network and filled it with lies and propaganda. The Republic nationalized the Holonet and even if they didn’t lie, Separatists naturally wouldn’t believe the claims of CIS atrocities because the Holonet had become state media. Of course they would trust their own media and not one owned by the enemy in a war. My proof for this is how Dooku got a Humanitarian Award shortly after ordering the massacre of a planet. Of course the Separatists can’t know the truth, otherwise they would never give Dooku that. Let’s also not forget how Dooku framed the Republic for killing Mina Bonteri. Two: There truly was corruption in the Republic. The Separatist Military was full of corporations that mostly got away with whatever they wanted because they were rich and powerful. Look at how the Senate acts when the Trade Federation blockaded Naboo and Pantora. Now, in fairness to you commenter, the Separatists do fail as trying to be better than the Republic. There is my first point in how the Shadowfeed acted just like the Holonet under the Empire, but the people put too much faith in Dooku. I wouldn’t be shocked if they got around to the idea of the Separatist Council controlling the military because they ironically thought Dooku would rein them in. The Galactic Republic needed a war to turn into an authoritarian dictatorship, the Separatist Alliance became one in peacetime, even before Dooku made those deals with the corporations on Geonosis. There are plenty of fans that wonder if the CIS could have been a purer faction without the Sith and Corporations, but it’s thanks to both of them that the Separatists exist anyways. Without the CIS, the planets that formed it would either have seceded separately from each other or would continue to try and reform the Republic.

She’s got some big shoes to fill

Klang! Thud.

The real (silent) answer: Palpatine

Actual reason in both: They were just a liability to Palpatine.

@@occam7382expensive as well, not to mention eventually the jango gene strip would wear out

@@heybeter9505, assuming it wasn't already wearing out. They mentioned multiple times in The Clone Wars how the Kaminoans were struggling to produce more clones without fresh DNA from Jango, and in The Bad Batch, Lama Su was so desparate for some pure DNA to keep the Empire off his back that he sent Cad Bane after Omega. I wouldn't be surprised if nearing the end, the Kaminoans had to pull some Jurassic Park-style genetic f*ckery and fill the gaps in Jango's genes with foreign DNA just to keep things afloat.

They didn’t. It was pretty well established that they never actually ended the cloning program, they just did what every government agency does given enough time; they went with the lowest bidder. By the time of the original trilogy cloned troops were still fielded, but a minority. They were notoriously inferior to actual enlisted, and still not very cost effective, so were only used to fluff out numbers when enlistment didn’t hit its marks. Later, during the First Order, some commanders were realizing the value of having soldiers indoctrinated from birth and had began to reinvest, but it was still a minority overall, and they no longer had the Fett line as an option.

@@heybeter9505 can't build 2 deathstars if the clones are taking all your money

Thrawn did just that in Legends with his Empire of the Hand, except that he was friendly with the Empire. Still, it took the New Republic 19 years after the Battle of Yavin to even realise the Empire of the Hand existed. That's pretty good for an independent faction.

The Eternal Empire But then you remember that Valkorian was Vitiate as well

Helps that you can just build droids en masse and then stick 'em in storage for however long you need (assuming they keep the droid reliance), as opposed to living beings.

@@violetlight1548its also the exact same thing the first order did in canon.

With what resources? Contrary to popular belief, a huthi rebellion going to an island in the middle of the Pacific to build an army isn’t going to come back with a naval fleet rivaling that of the United States. I think it is genuinely stupid that this is a plot device in Star Wars. A single senator won’t be able to amass the allies and resources to make that retreat genuinelly manageable (billions of lifeforms want to commit to their lives in galactic isolation), feasible (there are navigable and livable planets and resources there and infrastructure for super fleets) and succesful (an actual army will come out).

Rebels assemble.

To fight the wars no one else could

He would totally do that too, that bastard. How does he make you like him so much? How?!

And then Tarkin just nukes Alderaan from existence with Bail and his wife

Poetic to see the people who saw the other as a monster, only to have the veil pulled off and see how human they are.

@@WolfeSaber9933, well... not so much in Riyo's case.

If only the Beys of the Mid-East Allied Forces can come to that conclusion before the Battle of Fort Slava, Marley would have been internationally humiliated by the Allies and Paradis by the end of Attack on Titan.

You mean the Republic..

You both mean Sidious.

I mean as ezra said himself, if the republic or the separatist didnt win , then who did In the end, palpitating orchestra.The whole thing he's been the real enemy this whole time

​@@thomasdaywalt7735 On that subject, i also like Kalani's understanding. Separatists vs Republic. Rebels vs Empire. Republic > Empire... "I accept your logic, we are on the same side." "Sorry." - B1

@@user-vu4kr5ib1x That was only a trick of Sidious and what to ur trying to pull. The republic was a complete and utterly different entity then the empire.

There are theories about humans running from an AI and traveled through a portal into the Star Wars galaxy.

Used to decide fate

I imagine they're now used for healing Imperial troops or they've been abandoned. Heck we saw the very medical facility from the Malevolence arc in season 2 of Star Wars Rebels completely abandoned

@@anthonyrodriguez8788 that wasn’t the exact same medical facility, but it was one very similar to it. Had a ton of them, but most of them were abandoned when the Empire switched to natural born recruits..

That’s the natural eye color of Pantorans… it’s virtually impossible to tell if one is a sith

[dances to 80's synth]

Because the galaxy was majority human... And convincing alien makeup and costumes was expensive in the 70s and 80s

… It actually wasn’t, but only the humans could pilot starships.

The Galactic Empire stripped and sanctioned most of the separatist worlds, removing most of their power and wealth in the process. It is either that or the Separatist worlds were bombarded like Dooku's homeworld of Serenno. It's why the Rebel Alliance mostly consisted of former Republic loyalists like Bail Organa and a few former Separatists.

Well orto plutonia itself is a colony…they probably were space amish, not truly primative.

She doesn’t have a high M-count, her blood can handle a high M-count blood transfusion. The Emperor wants a clone body that can handle his high M-count.

Shaak Ti.

Gerrera's Partisans are far too reckless and violent for Rex to join. In Rebels, Rex joined the Ghost Crew in siding with Mon Mothma's Rebel Alliance over Gerrera.

Plan 99 would not have been needed 😢

Various planets have issues that make food production difficult or impossible. Cityscape planets like Coruscant or othet Core Worlds don't have arable land with access to sunlight and thngs like fertilizer. Hydroponics are undoubtedly used, but they are very chemical and power intensive when you are trying to feed trillions of people. Huge container ships which can be operated for a few hundred credits per ton (based on Han's smuggling rates in ANH) are usually going to be more economical once you have the planetary transportation networks set up and automated. Other worlds may have contaminated atmospheres or temperature swings that make growing conditions too harsh for large scale agriculture, but they still have mineral wealth or advantageous locations. Colonized worlds might actually be biologically incompatible with the colonizing species, so the settlers might not be physically CAPABLE of using the planets agricultural resources.

Chuchi is blue.

Then there's the corporations. Profitting from both sides of yhe conflict and feeling like the real big shots of the whole thing. *Of course, then there's the REAL big shot.*

That's kind of the point. Without the droid armies Raxus was essentially helpless. All the Empire had to do was put a few ships in orbit and demand that taxation resume. Just a pointed reminder that orbital turbolasers could ruin their day if they got out of line would be efficient. There isnt any indication that they werent basically cooperating with the Empire. Why do you need tanks and troops on the street if you aren't going to start squeezing the populace?

Also I the wild rim and wild space the confederacy or empire could get away with more. No one cared until empire came along. It is ironic….
