[edit] Money

I find it weird that they used Republic Credits. I figured that they would use a new form of currency, like when changed them from Republic to Imperial Dataries. (example: Sith Credits, Sith Dataries)

• Could be that they didn't have any metals to back them up. User:SFH
  • Well, Revan was intending on supplanting the Republic after all - and it's easier that starting a new currency ground up. (195.92.168.176 08:14, 26 January 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Revan's Sith Empire

• Should this perhaps be moved to Revan's Sith Empire or (less likely) Malak's Sith Empire? MarcK 00:00, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
• I think it should be Revan's. After all he was the founder, and without him influencing Malak, then Malak would have either died during or remained a jedi after the Mandalorian Wars. Jedi Wolf 5:00, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bloody Conquest

Just a quick note: I made sure to mention that Revan's conquest - while tactically superior to Malak's and focused on the supplantation of the Republic- was still categorised as "bloody". Carth Onasi specifically says that Malak "resumed the bloody conquest of the outer worlds" - resumed being key. Revan had subtle tactics - the execution of said tactics was unlikely to be so.

[edit] Neo-Sith Empire

Does anyone think that this should be entitled the "Neo-Sith Empire", as a better means of distinguishing it from the Sith Empire of the ancient past. Having (Jedi Civil War) written after it just seems so clunky. Just an idea to throw out there.

Edit- Scratch that, I just saw that the Brotherhood of Darkness' Empire is referred to as the "New Sith Empire"... even so, I think we need a less 'clunky' title for Revan and Malak's... --(195.92.168.176 08:14, 26 January 2006 (UTC))

• I see your point, but by using this name we avoid creating a conjectural title. --Imp 08:47, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rewrite

• While the recent re-writes are well done and expand the article, don't they defocus it a little? Right now this page reads less like an article about the Sith Empire and more like one about the Jedi Civil War as a whole. --Fade 11:08, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Ya, I see what you mean. I got a tad carried away with the History section. I think this article is now more complete and accurate than the actual Jedi Civil War article... Darn. We might want to condense it down and merge the excess into that article.--Sentry 11:32, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Done, now I can condense this article down...--Sentry 12:39, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dantooine and Dxun?

How so? Dantooine was always a Jedi world, while Dxun was inhabited by the Mandalorians who resettled on it, as well as the gathering sith around Freedon Nadd's tomb. - Sikon [Talk] 16:28, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

• The Dantooinians were conquered by the Sith in KOTOR. In the second game the people you talk to there mention what life was like under Sith rule. Kuralyov 16:30, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

yes but if you didn't listen to mical, oderon wasn't bothered by revan and besides, the people were probley talking about uh i don't know, freedon nadd's royal family? 72.230.40.84 18:44, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

• Erm, how about no. Dantooine was conquered by the Sith after the Jedi Enclave on the planet was destroyed. ANd please don't restart dead topics. Jasca Ducato 08:42, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] De facto

Why is Revan stated as the de facto leader, I thought he was the Dark Lord of the Sith? Jedi Wolf 6:47, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

• He was DLOS, but that also made him the de facto leader, since he founded the empire. _{Sith Council} ^{(Sith Campaign)} 09:23, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sith Empire - Galactic Empire parallels

• I think we should add some 'behind the scenes' or 'trivia' section, and point out the similarities between Revan&Malak's empire and Palpatine's one. There are some striking ones e. g. the uniforms of officers (not exactly, but resembling) and human dominance in the ranks of army and navy (though there are other species, but not many, most of them are apprentices or 'hopefuls' on Korriban), the common soldier's resemblance of storm troopers etc. Literally, one can say that Palpatine created the same, but from inside out: he did not conquer the Republic with external forces, but transformed it into a 'Sith Empire' from the inside. He needed a war, the decay of political system, and many other factors of course, but he was undeniably the more succesful: he carried out this 'transformation' amidst the 'thundering applause' of the Senate, and managed to (almost) completely eradicate the Jedi Order at the same time. Guess I am going off-topic already... Nevertheless I would still open a section for these similarities... Domlith 20:53, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

• I don't know, that sounds like Original Research to me.--Sentry 22:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Al-Quida Evolution paralle

• When the Mandolrains attacked the outlying systems it may of mirred the Soviet Union totalataryism on eastern Europe in which booth otward athorite were oblivious. When the Mandolorians attacked the Republic they retaliated just like the western world during the Communist raging.

• When the Jedi went to war against the concles wishes it may mimic Al-Quida's defence against the Sovient Union's invasion of Central Asia in which they protected Afganistan with Pakistan prevented from been next.

• With the Sovient Union's colapse in 1991 45% of the Al-Quida milatary was under Binlarden's direct command, just a a thired of the Republic fleet was under Revan's direct command at the end of the Mandolorian Wars.

• After the war Revan mysterisy turned to the dark side and Malak graduily accepted the role of apprentice. Just as Abu did with Binlarden and ultemently both groups were corupted in simular ways. Tilio Governor 7:14 P.M 2ed of June 2008

[edit] I see Empires of blue!

what/where did the blue symbol of the sith empire come from. If its actually canon and from a comic then i'm just sad, that does not look very evil. Steves490 21:40, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sith Lords

There are sith apprentices on Lehon in KOTOR and sith masters on Korriban, Manaan and Lehon as well. Are these more sith lords (as per the Wizards of the Coast Campaign Guide), or are the force-users other than Revan and Malak just called Dark Jedi? User:1705jallen
