“Long Live The Empire” Is A Call To Restructure The Empire

Thrawn was interested in improvements that could be made to the Empire , which meant overhauling ( and likely overthrowing ) Palpatine ’s regal structure . Thrawn laid out what he would have done moderately explicitly inTales of the Empire , telling Morgan Elsbeth,“While many of my colleagues cogitate on a grand scale , they often overlook where job begin , and they always pop out small . “This is certainly reflective of how Palpatine approached his own Empire .

Everything Palpatine think to do in his Empire was about having total restraint . In fact , as Palpatine used Force lightning on Mace Windu inStar Wars : Episode III - Revenge of the Sith , he yelled,“Unlimited power!“While Thrawn no doubt shared the same target in general , how he wanted to go about it was quite different . Palpatine was in favor of flock executions , beginning with social club 66 , and ruled by ruthless , far-flung oppression , not considering the ways belittled fracture could create much larger issues .

It ’s clear that Thrawn would have been much more punctilious and attentive had he been the one ruling the Empire . Surely , Thrawn also would have seek complete control . However , his would have been a more coarse-grained approach path , not sweeping attempts at out-and-out ascendancy that would have overlooked more minor concerns and threats . Unfortunately for Palpatine , Star Wars : narration of the Empire’suse of"Long live the Empire"shows not only that many imperial were pit to him , but also why he lost .
