Oi vey.
Banks.
How insidious.
Read my name.

F for my respects.
This arc was great in that it, more than any other arc, shows how Palpatine and Dooku played both sides of the conflict to further the Sith's rise to power.
Well yes I believe any arc in palpatines rise to power was great
don't forget Hego Damask
"WE MUST DEREGULATE, THE BANKS!" - only Palpatine could make this statement sound epic.
Me as a kid: The prequels suck because of the political plots.
Me as an adult: The prequels are awesome because of the political plots!
George and filoni want us to pay more attention to the world around us probably
@@GenerationTech Yeah I am sure George Lucas wants people to go outside and notice the world. Brilliant observation.
The Sith working under Palpatine are equivalent to the left working under the global elite. Establish a totalitarian government that governs the entire known population and makes their freedoms and rights dependent on their behavior and loyalties. Both want total control over all facets of our lives and unfortunately like the members of the senate, people are sheep who will cheer them on while throwing their freedoms away.
@@TheRPGentleman "liberals working under the global elite"
And of course, someone had to fucking bring in politics.
@@NobleRaider2747 but star wars is literally full of politics
Palpatine always accepts more power with great humility. Such a noble figure and bright light of decency for the Republic.
One of the most humble kindest men I have ever seen! :D
I must say... Palpatine and Darth Plagueis were geniuses
Not so much Darth Plagueis, because he died, because he was dumb enough to get drunk with Palpatine and let his guard down
What about Tenebrae?
100, palpatine be like: why wage a war against the jedi when hey can wage the war for you and with their deaths the war waged will end without risking yourself
@@philipbenhardb.velasco369 That deserves more likes and recognition
The "great plan" is so well thought and done that it could work in the real world.
Imagine controlling both side of the war
Control the banks
And force a cult of warrior monks that are not allow to kill against a droid army
And faking news that this cult are the warmongers and the cause of this war not to mention they kidnap childrens to indoctrinate them.
Brilliant!
"The bank will decide your fate!"

@@DCFAN-lh9kfIt’s tax evasion then…
I love how the thumbnail really captured the complexity and genius in a decades in the making, galaxy spanning, devious plan to take control of the Galaxy with this simple utterance "BANKS!"
Lmao
“Let’s take a moment of silence for these brave clones.”
*ad plays immediately afterwards*
I learned economics from the clone wars
MISA HAVE STONKS!
@@oscarlundberg7462 BOMBAD STONKS
same...very odd tho
Bombad GME STONKS?
I learned about separatism from Star Wars
The Credit is mightier than the Lightsaber
Pyke Syndicate, “Hold our spice.”
@The Johnnie Walker That’s what she said
@The Johnnie Walker i was thought palpatine was gay just by the way he grooms anakin it’s like he had a thing for him lol
“That's my line! I'll kill you!” - Tyber Zahn
@infinite5 Only if it wasn't Republic Credits.
Have my F, and my like, for our hero Commander Thorn. May he rest in peace. For the Republic!
Palpatine be like: "Infinite Money Glitch *Not Clickbait!!*"
The US Federal Reserve.....
@@sissyphussartre2907 very accurate tbh
This arc is one of my favorites. I wish there was a Disney+ series that dived into politics of The New Republic and the mess that the Empire left. Something like House of Cards but Star Wars.
We aint getting that because star wars now isnt about poltics, its about "magic hero wins against all odds" that basically all star wars films made by disney except rogue one
@@stephenwalsh2476Andor focused heavily on the politics
13:05 I love the little detail of how Mon Mothma detaches her senate pod and crosses her arms, seemingly the only one objecting to Palpatine gaining control of the bank. Such incredible attention to detail in this show.
Ah yes another important piece of star wars lore and story.
Banking.
Honestly I love learning about the logistics and politics of star wars it makes the galaxy feel more alive when theres more detail so this ark was very enjoyable for me
Best franchise for it honestly love making these types of midros
Videos*
Has anyone else ever stopped around 7:51 to see the shadow of anakin looking very similar to the shadow of Vader or did I just realize this a while ago and I’m late lol
Idk why but Anakin losing it and beating the shit out of Klovis like a frat boy always makes me chuckle
Great analysis! There were so many strings which palpatine had to pull in order to organize the take over of the republic into the empire- every string was important and could fail ruining the plan
I pressed F to pay respect to the fallen clones
Alan does not receive nearly enough credit in these comment sections. His comprehensive SW analyses and ability to compare/contrast it to the real world is incredible. Keep it up Alan!
A certain community also employed these strategies to gain control of financial system ,also naming them can cause you to get cancelled.😂
Padme still wore the dommy mommy dress with clovis lol.
Palptine the man with the plan to rule the galaxy.
7:51 Anakin’s shadow looks like Darth Vader, I never noticed until now.
Original trilogy: Funny space balls and space wizards
Prequel trilogy: ECONOMICS
honestly i think thats why i like the prequels better, objectively worse films but i love the worldbuilding and deeper side to the universe that we don’t see in the originals which is just kinda like wah empire bad
Check out Anakin’s shadow at exactly 7:52. Brilliant Easter egg.
F to to that clone he was a good Soldier
If you take a look at time stamp 7:51 when Padmae is in the cell the shadow of Anakin is in the shape of Darth Vader
14:12 the "A" in generation looks like the infamous chakal from sabado gigante 🤣🤣
New generation tech clone wars video? Bruh this is what I live for
I was a business man doing business things
This begs this question here: What will happen if the Banking Clan actually collapse? How can the Separatists and the Republic continue the war anymore after this? Of course, a number of raids between the two parties would become the norm but I doubt the loots from those raids can help much. And the increase amount of taxation on their citizens will only be just the temporary solution. So yeah, they will have no chocie but to call for a ceasefire for like a decade to restore basically everything in the galaxy. It will be a lost for the Republic and a pyrrhic victory for the Separatists if a truce is called for both sides.
Seperatarist has more advanced weaponry than republic
I always thought the gradual process was really cool. First he gets things deregulated and then gradually destabilizes them
Such a fantastic channel. Alan is brilliant. I love how they break it down so well. It's much deeper than some kid's show. And goes great with weed.😜 Keep 'em comming!!! They're great!!!
Cool and literally first 🥇! Wish for video about best Earth made firearms with different stuffs for different scenarios in Star Wars
_“Oh, I’m not brave enough for_ banking”
Palpatine the Great
Palpatine is one step closer for obtaining dominion over the Galaxy
I remember this series within the clone wars. It took place over 3 or 4 episodes.
Love your videos man; keep it up :)
So ya.. I hit "F" to honor the fallen clones... and found a hotkey I didn't know about. Thanks!
I can't help but see Palpatine playing Monopoly.
The lack of the Old Republic not having its own bank is like no money in Star Trek. Its one of those things that are hard understand.
Surprised we didn't see San Hill in the Banking Clan arc. Or at any time in TCW.
Iv loved the palpatine stuff y’all’v been putting out lately. Could y’all make a video of what a day was like for palpatine?
thanks for all the imformative content :)
F for commander Thorn
4:38 -- comparing the Banking Clan to Switzerland completely altered my view of Switzerland's neutrality during two World Wars bravo
“LONG LIVE THE BANKS!!!”
“I AM THE BANKS”
Video topic:
What if count dooku wouldn't have died in the battle of Coruscant?
RIP Commander Thorn
Muun's must've had hedgefunds
Palpatine: Stonks
F.
Farwell, Commander Thrawn. You went out like a badass and unfortunately, with your death the Courasant Guard fall under the complete command of that jackass Fox.
Strange, Fox died sometime before Thrawn entered relevancy in the imperial military.
You must be thinking about Commander Thorn.
@@marrqi7wini54 Oh dang your right, I misspelled Thorn's name.
F for Commander Thorne and his squad
f for the clones
F for respect for Clone Commander Thorn.
Amazing video buddy
Simply STONKS
F let’s all pay our respect to our brave clones
The Han Solo Trilogy's first book, the Paradise Snare, showed, exactly like in this video, how banks worked in the Imperial Era.
Pressing F to pay respects
Go for papa palpatine
Everytime I say I just want a story based on Star Wars politics my friends laugh at me. They won't be saved when I gain control of the Galactic Senate
Note: never make a deal with sith, makuta, and dolphins.
F. RIP commander Thorn
F in the chat for Thorn, he was what the corausant guard should have been...
I am the Bank ~Palpatine 19 BBY
I killed the Bank ~Darth Vader. 4 ABY
The muuns would never have let him do that.
Unlimited MONEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
True! 🤑
Hahahahaha true
This makes me wonder: in each large scale conflict, how much did each side spend?
Makes me think what happened to the banks after the empire fell but seeing how there were rich people investing in the first order maybe it doesn’t matter
I love you Allen
i love him more
@@cassielov3 yeah but I'm a dolfin
I really don't understand why Clovis didn't just give Dooku the finger when he asked him to raise the taxes for the republic.
I mean what's Dooku gonna do, reveal that it was his idea to put Clovis to the IGBC's head of the banks? So what, it was only a proposition and then it could clearly be shown that Clovis cannot be manipulated by the seperatist. At that point the seperatists only move would be to attack which equals suicide for them, since the republic would obviously respond to the IGBC's help.
The whole thing just doesn't add up.
Also: F
Could the grand republic army and sepratist army combined destroy the empire?
F for respects
Long live the banks
F for the Clones who died trying to secure a free market they did never benefit from
Jar Jar Banks.
What if Boba Fett never survived the Rathtar Pit?
you do know the federal reserve is exactly like the banking clan... it is identical, it is a private coorporation.
Nice
so its the imperial bank
Last time I was this early, the banks were still independent.
Most central banks are more like the banking guild in that they are not part of the government of the nation in which they operate. They are private organizations that are delegated certain powers - often time b/c they are the primary bank the national government of the nation in which they operate uses for regular banking transactions from paying salaries to dispersing funds the national legislature spends.
Who's in charge of the blood banks?
For all the bad rep the Coruscant Guards get ultimately they did their job better than most would think a single detatchment held off an onslaught of Separatist droids with all of them dying leaving no prisoners and no cowards for this they deserve my most humble
F.
12:24 f in chat for my beothers
To quote Palpatine himself, I love democracy.
Not gonna lie, I still find this arc pretty boring. However, seeing Palpatine play literally everyone into submission and Anakin flirting dangerously close to the Dark Side is just awesome. For the most part, Anakin in The Clone Wars feels almost like a completely different person to Anakin in the movies so I love it when there are these moments when Anakin almost snaps.
I agree but he definitely snaps like that fight with Clovis was so unnecessary he’s already lost it
@@GenerationTech Yeah it was a little too brutal for my liking. I get Anakin eventually becomes a sigh Lord but holy moly.
Palpatine, “Long live the banks!”
I *AM* the banks
@@sheevpalpatine80 Not yet
*S T O N K S*
just a touch of constructive criticism your transition slate music was a little loud
why is it only one species working in the banks?
12:27 f
I wish I controlled the banks.
True, ECONMICS ! Credits make the Universe go round . That's why people want to come to the U.S.A. . Ah yes, But HOW to control it !?
