This is only discussed until the establishment of the empire to the end, the first power has been pulled far away.
Leaving aside the fantasy element of Jedi Sith, we all know that the Galactic Empire came from the Galactic Republic. The Republic is actually a federal government. Local lords have complete independent sovereignty, and some are noble governments. Otherwise, where did the princess come from? Is an adopted daughter. The high level of the Republic does not have the ability to directly rule to the bottom civilians, including until the early empire. There is no such thing as the low-level civilians who cannot withstand the imperial tyranny. Some soldiers of the Uprising Alliance may have this idea, but this is not the essence of the uprising. . The key is that because the empire has developed to a certain extent, through the cloning of military forces that are not constrained by various places, as well as the establishment of personal loyalty, including the promotion of the empire, and the influence of high-ranking officials who are out of the background of local forces, the time is ripe, the emperor should directly centralize power. Ruled to every corner of the empire, the imperial army from soldiers to high-ranking officials did not come from the loyalty of the forces of the lords, but directly loyal to the emperor. The lords would lose their privileges and instigate the people, especially the poor ghosts, in the name of the people. , Rising up, attributed the failure of governance to the empire. According to Star Wars itself, democracy disappeared in the rumbling applause. Anyway, no matter how the emperor was taken, he was taken seriously.
In fact, this kind of story is not new at all. It is basically the chronicle of the Arab empire, but with the background of interstellar war. Everyone knows the transition from the orthodox caliph to the hereditary family system. The caliph wants to centralize power. The religious leader is not enough, and he wants to directly rule the military and administration of the empire. The tribal elders can no longer decide who is the caliph even indirectly. The position of the Emir is very mysterious. Unlike the tribal elders, who are only loyal to the local area. The Emir is both the local governor and the representative of the Caliph, thus initially having the foundation for self-reliance on the imperial court. Then the caliph wants to take back the local privileges, and the loyalty of the lords is shaken. Didn't he become a polished commander, and it is impossible to talk about regaining power? No, he is not a polished commander. He has no choice other than the power in the core area of the capital. There are guards to contain the locals, so the tribe loses its privileges and opposes the central command. Where did the soldiers of the guards come from? There are places where they are not Arabs, and they did not fully convert to Islam at that time. Who, Turks, Turks? The Guards are directly loyal to the Caliph and will not be restrained by the tribal elders. However, is it possible for the Turks to turn back against the water? It is possible, but it is difficult for the empire to become strong, because once it turns against the water, it loses the righteousness of representing the central government and its strength is weakened. They can all be defeated. In this way, the caliph, the guards, and the local lords can reach a temporary balance. Until the Turkic tribes can not remain alone in the entire empire, they will always convert to the local area and establish their own country. I know that Turkic people have ruled Egypt many times. I am not talking about Ottoman Turkey. I did it earlier. This is also a profile portrait of the collapse of the Arab empire. The emirs have also completely transformed into representatives of local power. The independent court has become a reality, nominally. The empire eventually fell apart.
Star Wars is actually sending the traditional Harry to the family dictatorship and hereditary change to the reorganization of the empire. The emperor is the caliph, the uprising alliance, at least the high-level emir and tribal elders who are unwilling to hand over power and the central government wants to continue to control the privileges, and the uprising soldiers are inciting. The tribal warriors and poor ghosts, the generals of the imperial army and the clone army are the Turkic nobles and exclusive guards. In the end, the children of Lord Black are the Mongols. The empire perishes, and each place is in its own right again, and the key privileges are kept.
Whoever really regards Star Wars as a tyranny giving way to democracy, where evil is overwhelmingly right, can only say that you have been thoroughly brainwashed. Whether military or political is worse than anyone else, whoever can surpass it, in contrast, Lord Black is so cute.
