Palpatine planned to foster darkness in Star Wars
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Star Wars continues to showcase the major flaw in the Empire Palpatine had carefully crafted. Ever since A New Hope’s first shot of the Tantive IV fleeing Vader’s Star Destroyer, it was clear George Lucas intended the Empire to be imposing and oppressive. Imperial laws seemed to get increasingly worse as the Empire squeezed the galaxy dry.

Palpatine Wanted The Empire To Be Corrupt Close At first, it might seem strange why Palpatine would build an Empire where so much corruption thrived. He kept the highest Imperial officers in shape with the threat of torture and death, usually at the grim hand of Darth Vader. But the low-ranking Imperials were left to slack off on their duties and—in the case of Captain Mann—bend Imperial law for his own gain. These corrupt flaws in the Empire's government did not go unnoticed.
There Was No Way Such A Corrupt Empire Could Endure Logically speaking, such a corrupt and amoral system of government would inevitably degrade and collapse in on itself. In other words, the Empire was doomed from the very beginning. Of course, Palpatine knew the system he was setting up couldn’t endure on its own; left to its own devices, the Empire would fail. Therefore, he secured the Empire’s survival through pure fear.
