The visual appearance of Darth Vader in his all-black uniform combined with his devout obedience to the Emperor has allusion to the black-uniformed Nazi Schutzstaffel (SS). The title of the Empire's main soldiers, the stormtroopers, is somewhat similar to the name given to Adolf Hitler's Sturmabteilung (SA, 'storm department') paramilitary bodyguards. The Empire, like the Nazis, desires the creation of totalitarian order and utilizes excessive force and violence to achieve their ends. Similar to Nazi Germany, the Galactic Empire is a dictatorship based on rigid control of society that dissolved a previous democracy and is led by an all-powerful supreme ruler. Star Wars creator George Lucas sought to make the First Galactic Empire aesthetically and thematically similar to Nazi Germany and to appear to be fascist. See also: Star Wars sources and analogues

The Empire is defeated in Return of the Jedi, but the First Order is formed by Imperial remnants in the sequel trilogy, set 30 years later. The Galactic Empire is described and portrayed in various Star Wars media as a brutal dictatorship, one based on ' anthropocentrism, nationalization, state terrorism, xenophobia, enslavement and genocide of non-humans, power projection, threat of lethal force, and, above all else, constant fear'. The completion of the Death Star, a doomsday weapon, allows Palpatine to dissolve the powerless Imperial Senate. By the time of Episode IV вЂ“ A New Hope, the Empire has transformed into a fully autocratic regime, opposed by the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Though Palpatine's Sith identity remains a secret to all but a handful of individuals, his apprentice, the Sith Lord Darth Vader maintains a more public presence, acting as a personification of the Empire's power. The Senate overwhelmingly supports this decision and lauds Palpatine's apparent resolve, bravery, and selflessness. After engineering these threats himself, Palpatine reorganizes the Republic into a state that could 'ensure the security and continuing stability, and a safe and secure society' вЂ“ a galactic empire with himself as its Emperor. Palpatine manipulates the Galactic Senate into using clone troopers created during the conflict to wipe out the Jedi. Palpatine falsely accuses the Jedi of causing the Clone Wars, a secessionist war, to weaken the Republic and gain power. Palpatine is also secretly the Sith lord Darth Sidious, who masterminded the war in order to destroy the Jedi and restore the Sith to power. The Empire's origins are depicted in the prequel Star Wars: Episode III вЂ“ Revenge of the Sith (2005), where it replaces the Galactic Republic at the end of the Clone Wars orchestrated by the Republic's Supreme Chancellor, Palpatine. An oppressive, autocratic regime with a complicated bureaucracy, the Galactic Empire seeks to ensure singular rule and social control over every planet and civilization within the galaxy.ДЄt its peak, the Galactic Empire sprawls over much of the known Star Wars galaxy, which consists of millions of star systems and billions more fringe colonies, shipyards, fortress worlds, and outer territories. It is the main antagonistic faction of the original trilogy. It was first introduced in the 1977 film Star Wars and appears in its two sequels: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983). The Galactic Empire is a fictional autocracy featured in the Star Wars franchise.
