monition ! SPOILERS for The Bad Batch season 3 , episode 4 .

Summary

Star Warscontinues to showcase the major flaw inthe EmpirePalpatine had carefully craft . Ever sinceA New Hope’sfirst shooter of the Tantive IV fleeing Vader’sStar Destroyer , it was clear George Lucas intended the Empire to be enforce and oppressive . Imperial legal philosophy seemed to get increasingly worseas the Empire crush the galaxy dry . The Empire was often so oppressive that the general universe of the coltsfoot was quick to get together it rather than fight it . For example , even Luke Skywalker wanted to become an Imperial buffer before play Obi - Wan Kenobi and understand his fortune .

gratefully , Luke never take on the bound in joining the Imperial Academy . Star Wars Rebels , Andor , andRogue One : A Star Wars Storyall show what he would ’ve gotten into ; the purple rank were fraught with crafty military officer who would not pause to knife each other in the back if it helped them ascend the corporate ladder . Laziness , greed , and covetousness thrive among the officerswho were meant to mercifully oversee the systems they governed . But above all , one recentStar Warsshow has shown just how deep corruption ran in the Empire .

Though the Rebellion was victorious in the end , it take on over two decades to kill the Empire . One new Star Wars theory explicate why it took so long .

The Bad Batch Confirms How Quickly The Empire Became Corrupt

The Bad Batchseason 3 is Disney ’s latestStar Warsentry to show just how bad the Empire really became . In a way , the Empire chasing after and experimenting on Omega and the other retire clones is to be expected of the overbearing Empire . ButThe Bad Batchtook the story in a dissimilar directionby showing how the Empire operates at the societal degree of a random planet in the galaxy .

Palpatine Wanted The Empire To Be Corrupt

At first , it might seem strange why Palpatine would work up an Empire where so much subversion thrived . He kept the highest Imperial officer in shape with the threat of twisting and destruction , usually at the grim hand ofDarth Vader . But thelow - outrank imperial beard were left to slack off on their dutiesand — in the case of Captain Mann — deform Imperial law for his own addition . These crooked flaws in the Empire ’s regime did not go unnoticed . Oftentimes , theRebels would work the Empiredue to its acedia and rapacity .

Nevertheless , Palpatine had a purpose in allowing the Empire to foster such destructive wont among its own officials . While one person ’s greed or hatred did n’t make much conflict , hundreds of police officer scattered across the beetleweed would inevitably have an wallop on the gloomy side . Captain Mann ’s underarm tactics were only a sample distribution of the dark problems in the Empire . By having his officers give into their dark tendencies , Palpatine increased the dour side ’s presence in the galaxy .

There Was No Way Such A Corrupt Empire Could Endure

Logically speaking , sucha corrupt and amoral system of regime would of necessity demean and collapsein on itself . In other words , the Empire was doomed from the very beginning . Of course , Palpatine knew the scheme he was setting up could n’t endure on its own ; left to its own devices , the Empire would fail . Therefore , he secured the Empire ’s survival through pure fear . The Death Star is what allowed Palpatine to keep full control on the destructive Empire he ’d make . With the superweapon , he could keep all the regional governors in line without the need for an Imperial Senate .

The Death Star was the answerto Palpatine ’s decaying Empire . When Luke destroyed it , Palpatine knew the Empire would soon crumble under the weight of its own sins . This explains why he directly began constructing the Death Star II . It ’s also why the First Order thought that Starkiller Base was essential for its fresh order . Withoutan all - sinewy superweapon to keep everyone in line , depravation would eventually do the Empire to collapse . Just as Omega and Crosshair overwork Captain Mann ’s greed , so too would the other Rebels take advantage of other royal officers .

The Bad Batchseason 3 provide undeniable proof that Palpatine ’s Empire had major flaws in its ranks . And without the Death Star , he could not hope to control such a adulterate and destructive Empire . But if honorable morals were promoted within the Empire , the sour side ’s power of the galaxy would weaken . From the beginning , Palpatine design the Empire ’s structure cautiously in parliamentary procedure to ensure its longevity . But despite his adept efforts , theStar Warsgalaxy rose up and overrule his vicious sovereignty of scourge .
