Sith Empire (Pre-Republic)
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The Sith Empire was established by the Sith of Korriban circa 28,000 BBY, following the defeat of their Rakatan invaders under the leadership of Adas.
[edit] History
Having united all of Korriban under one rule, Adas was given the title of Sith'ari, or Lord of the Sith. Taking what remained of their enemies' spacecraft, the previously primitive Sith - now instantly propelled into a space age and armed with the dark side of the Force, both acquired from the Rakata - went on to conquer other nearby worlds, in what would later come to be known as Sith Space, their capital being relocated from Korriban to the neighboring Ziost.
The Empire was short-lived, dissolving into civil war with the death of Adas, and was long gone by the arrival of the Dark Jedi in 6,900 BBY; and the Sith had once again devolved into a primitive people.
