The Galactic Empire Scrapbook is a guide to the Galactic Empire and its battles against the Rebel Alliance. As it was written in 1997, prior to the release of the prequel trilogy, it has many inacuracies concerning the rise of the Empire. These include that the Clone Wars were fought between the Jedi Knights and the Mandalorians, that Palpatine became leader of the Republic after the war's end, and that Anakin Skywalker "fell" into a volcano, transforming him into Darth Vader, rather than burning near a lava river on Mustafar and already being Vader. In addition, several inacuracies existed that condradicted already established canon, such as Jabba the Hutt's Rancor being the only one in existance and that Coruscant's Galactic City was a small space compared to the mountains that "covered most of the planet." Why these contradictions were not corrected by Lucasfilm or theHolocron continuity database is unknown.
