EckhartsLadder you so need to do a verses video on mass effects reapers vs halos the flood think it would be a awesome video of the clash of two galaxy conquerors!!!
You got the hundred year darkness event wrong at the end of those hundred years the dark jedi were exiled n landed on Korriban then became dark lords of the Sith n learned dark side teachings there never attacking the republic or jedi directly it was their descendents that did centuries later
vitor kennedy Not only is it deep and dark. No matter how much we dont want to realise it, where there is good there must be bad. Thats just how the universe works.
Roberto Barra No thats not now how the universe works. The universe doesn't see good or bad it just sees actions. It literally would not matter if we were completely good or completely bad the universe would not care.

Well, the idea is that unless they directly contradict what is shown in old lore, you can still personally see it as canon. Most of this video, for instance, could still be canon.
Wiell Nyan In the book Plagueis is actually awake. It kinda turns into a stare down as Plagueis dares Sidious to kill him because he believes he’ll survive and become more powerful.
Sidious did kill plagueis in his sleep but feared that his master would have already unlocked the secrets of immortality which is the reason why he always was on guard after killing his master.
@@Evergreen0021 Nah. Zannah's victory was a biiiig cliffhanger thanks to that line where Zannah's hand was shaking just like Bane's hand before. It was never clear who was the winner in the book so I can't say it's better than Plagueis.
"Tell me what you regard as your greatest strength, so I will know how best to undermine you; Tell me of your greatest fear so I will know which I must force you to face.

@@KrZuh8 But it would extremely difficult to do. I mean you try explaining the difference between Darth Malak and Darth Malgus. They're both big, pale, bald sith dudes based off of Darth Vader. You know that'll get confusing. I am mostly joking, I think it could work. However, it's worth noting that many fans of Star Wars only watch the movies and stay away from the EU.

@live life I don't know, I feel the Prequels both sparked imagination and took it away. It gave answers to a lot of things people didn't want answers to. And I'm sure anyone not living under a rock knows the Prequels were devicive. That's what I see from the Sequels. It's not giving the future everyone had envisioned, but the ones who grow up with it will add it to the rest abd love it like a Prequel fan.
The Siths history has always been quite fascinating to me. And I love how they have quite a long one too. My favorite Era would have to be during The Old Republic, it is quite an awesome one! :)
Well, the Sith are the antithesis of the Jedi, they both make up the core of the original Star Wars Trilogy as well as the prequel series. They had to have a history at least as interesting, or more in this case, than the Jedi.
YES THERE NEEDS TO BE A NEW KOTOR GAME! AND I'M SO MAD THAT THEY MAKE HK47 SEEM SO BAD ASS IN THE DIALOGS AND THEN. HE JUST LIKE HAI HOW YA DOING I'M REALLY BAD
Bane: the strongest will survive, and carry on the legacy of the dark side. Death is a privilege. Also bane: *stabs all rivals in the back in their sleep*
Firstly, Bane would consider deception, stealth, and alertness forms of strength so anyone stabbed in the back is weak. Secondly, Bane’s only kills on fellow Sith were killing a student in a duel, killing a student in a fight that erupted after he was ambushed, killing his teacher with a force push as he lost a duel, and tricking Kaan into nuking the rest of the Sith which certainly proves their weakness given that they were unambitious and foolish enough to follow him.
Okay, this was your most epic one yet. Your talking was very different before, this was like someone telling a story instead of your usual style. Not overdone aswell. Ya did it with this one in my opinion.
This. Bane traded a thousand years of obscurity and struggle for what, 20 years of supremacy? 30? Only for it to all go tits up because one Sith had a change of heart and threw his master down a reactor shaft. Even if the individual Sith of the rule of two were more powerful (which is VERY debatable) the order itself only really thrived for a ridiculously brief period, while earlier Sith orders managed to retain power for several decades if not centuries. Bane was one of the worst things to happen to the Sith and if not for Palpatine, they probably wouldn't have amounted to anything at all.
@@dominict9325 the rule of two was only created for the siths survival. Darth Bane created the rule of two based on Darth Revans holocran. However revans life gives us a clue on why the rule of two wouldn’t work. In the new sith wars (hate that name btw) the problem was multiple apprentices would work together to kill the master which ion know why the have so many apprenticeship in the first place. If Bane had combined the rule of two with the sith empire that would have made discovery much easier. Also multiple sith will receive ancient knowledge and add their own research or experience with the dark side. Which if that’s the case this system will surpass its predecessor. So basically there is only one master and one apprentice but there can be as many duo’s as you want. Infighting is still there but it gives new users positions of power which satisfy everyone. Leading to less infighting. The rule is once you either kill your master or rank up to a Sith Lord then you can have one apprentice unless you die or the apprentice ranks up. (But that’s just how I’d do it if I was in Darth Banes situation).
@@dominict9325 Hard disagree. The Sith by Bane's time were essentially wiped out. Bane realized that while galatic conquest may eventually be a goal of the Sith, for now it was about survival. The Rule of Two ensured that there would always be at least 1 Sith around, so they would never be truly gone. This also forced the Sith to rethink how they would gain power and control. They would have to be more cunning, be forced to work behind the scenes and use intrigue, diplomacy, social skills, ect. You know. The things that build successful civilizations. Like it or not, an empire built by people who are fighting each other more than the enemy, corrupted by the literal cosmic energy of evil, and who are also zealots of a religion that idolizes suffering, subjugation, betrayal, hatred and endless thirst for power that will never be satisfied doesn't make for a very stable civilization. Their new ideology made them focus more on influence than outright control, and it was incredibly successful, with literally every single named Sith Lord after the Rule of Two was implemented being some of the most influential figures in the galaxy. Darth Plaugius was chairman of the banking clan. Darth Tenebrous was one of the most successful star-ship designers of all time. Darth Vecticus owned a massive mining colony. The list goes on. Yes, the Sith's goal of ultimate power and control would be harder to obtain without being able to just slaughter and/or enslave anyone who opposed them, but it would guarantee their order would continue on essentially forever, and once they did manage to gain total control, it would be a much more stable grasp. Bane's Rule of Two almost single-handedly saved the Sith from total extinction and gave them a much better system overall. Your "20-30 years of supremacy" is only taking into account Palpatine's time as the mf EMPEROR OF THE WHOLE GALAXY. Not the decades prior he had of political control, massive amounts of wealth and influence, and oh yeah, that time he set up an entire fake war between his order's millenia old enemy and rebel group, both of which he was in control of the entire time, with him ending up the winner no matter who won. And this is petty much the story for every Sith since the time of Darth Bane. Maybe not the level of galatic emperor, but highly powerful figures in their own right.

@@lil_halfrican_boi2124 I hear you, good points but I defer to Darth Traya who was the Master of 2 great sith. "Compared to the Sith of old, we are merely children playing with toys.". Plus with all the canon material, there has been more than 2 sith almost consistently through the years. Even during Palpatine's time. Maul survived when Dooku was his apprentice. When Vader was his apprentice Starkiller was Vaders apprentice and so on and so on. I know you'll probably respond with saying they weren't true sith at the time but they were dark side users using sith force powers. I just think the ancient sith were more powerful because they had many more challengers than just one apprentice. The 'OG sith had to deal with their apprentice and all the other sites out for their necks. Seems the line after Bane had it a lot easier.
"He would later die without an heir, seemingly spelling an end for the Sith." The Sith will never die. The Sith are born out of a realisation. We require no creed. No indoctrination. All we need is that the galaxy be as it is.
Let me do some tweak on the speech “Even when your kind triumph, still we rise again. Do you know why? The Dark Side/Sith is born out of darkness of every beings in the galaxy. We require no creed, no indoctrination from arrogant old masters. All we need is let the Jedi Order to be as it is. This is why the Dark Side/Sith will never be destroyed.
Where there is good, there must be evil. Where there is Light, there must be Dark. Where there is Order, there must be Chaos. For in the Force both reside, for in the Force I reside. I am Gray, the balance between the Light and the Dark.

Kenneth Kates the grey you cowering self serving, hypocritical bastards. You run from the order, which you see problems in. But instead of fixing it hide away from it. slowly eroding away to nothing. You see the problems of both the jedi. and sith and yet you run from them, instead of helping or fixing them. You don't abandon the force, when you see the problems it causes. But instead you use it to help no one but yourself. You hide in exile when the whole galaxy needs you. You don't ever help, all you do is loath, and loath is all you'll ever do. You are contempt to let it burn, to ash, cinder, and nothing. let the whole galaxy, and it's people burn, from the fire of war. You can't choose light or dark, rather you hide away, perching the grey and it's "magnificence and holy glory.". You should try to fix the order, but instead you exile yourself. You sicken me to the core.
2:19~2:27 SWTOR "Deceive" "Our time has come. For 300 years, we prepared. We grew stronger. While you rested in your cradle of power, believing your people were safe and protected. You were trusted to lead the Republic-but you were deceived, as our powers of the dark side have blinded you. You assumed no force could challenge you...and now...finally...we have returned! You were deceived. And now, your Republic shall fall"
The rule of two never really made sense. Darth Bane failed to see the real weakness of the sith. The number of sith wasn't the problem it was their philosophy. It's their self destructive and power hungry nature which led them to destruction. The rule of two, to work, needs the sith to be selfless while asking them to remain selfish in order to become stronger. Realistically with such philosophy, never any master was going to let his aprentice overthrew him. And I can't name any sith of the rule of two who overpowered his master. Each time the master died was either out of pure luck or cheat. Bane tried to "save" the sith but didn't want them to really change. Unlike him, Vitiate knew the sith were doomed and left them to create something new. The One sith was arguably the best one, but the nature of the sith overall remained...
Tobirama-sensei true and the Jedi are almost as bad. they're hypocritical, narrow minded, and shun what makes them human. And grey Jedi are even worse. They see the problems of the order but do not change it they just run away from it.
@@tntsummers926 "shun what makes them human" such a phrase come from a person who'd be drawn to the dark side/ Stupid adolcscent star wars fans, they fail to ever understand the deep allogeric themes of star wars.
@@user-dn3fn3bg4l Lucas said the Jedi were the good guys, who had nothing wrong with them what so ever. star wars has very deep allogeric themes, at the very least just kotor II's kreia.
1:20- Actually, the Hundred Year Darkness is the conflict that led to Ajunta Pall and his followers initial exile. They didn’t find the Sith until after that.
Yeah. The "Sith" weren't Sith weren't Sith when they first fought the Jedi. They were just other Jedi, with different ideas. In fact, it's possible that the Light Jedi actually attacked the Dark Jedi first for heresy, sparking the conflict to begin with.
Lemme rant. I know George Lucas said Star Wars was made for kids, (which i don’t agree with) but I swear if they made an Old Republic trilogy, just ONE trilogy, that was extremely dark, maybe even rated R, my life would honestly be complete. To see the mercilessness and just how badass the old Sith were on screen, my god that would be perfect. I mean Disney owns Fox, and they are making Deadpool 2 which is rated R, so I really hope it isn’t too far fetched. And it doesn’t even have to be rated R tho! Just one trilogy that isn’t full of annoying unnecessary jokes and not full of “good guys win cuz good better than bad yay” like a trilogy that is dark would be so noice
It's not something you can disagree with. It's fact. It's like saying Obama was never President, he was. Star Wars was made for kids, but that doesn't mean it has to be entirely enjoyed by them.
It's based of a samari legend (atleast the original trilogy) he just replaced samari swords with lightsabers . And rating are basically determined by cussing(which in a scifi\space series you can make up your own that don't need to be censored) and nudity\sex which isn't a big plot point in SW.most things get higher rating just because they say fuck a couple of times
Fuck Valkorion and fuck Zakuul. Vitiate DIED on either DK or Ziost by the hand of JK(Hero of Tython- preferably former choice aka during the Battle of DK). PERIOD.
I won't try to deny that! Also he looks cool(like a gray / white haired Mengsk tbh) and he could've been a very cool character in other, more High Quality content. I don't hate him(or Zakuul for that matter), just the way they've been handled. How they just appeared and destroyed the Republic. Oh lol! 10s of HUGE ASS WARS couldn't do that, but "Zakuul" could. lol wtf?
Zvonko Fonko, I’m not the biggest fan of that either as it took him 1300 years to rebuild the sith empire but only took him 300 years to build the eternal empire........ I like vitiate but they did overused him with the eternal empire stuff
While we're at it, how did he manage to manage both The Sith Empire and The Eternal Empire? How did he manage to rule over gigant that is former while building the latter? Almost all of the explanations are flimsy at best. Not to mention his cringe family / associates(Valkorion's). Best to keep Valk as an awesome concept and to use him elsewhere(and forget that Zakuul ever happened). Could be one helluva character!
@@squezzsiege2735 it didn't it actually failed halfway through a Sith almost destroyed everything which is why Palpatine doesn't use those special things
@@squezzsiege2735 which is kind of stupid because a Sith almost erased every ancient technique in the Banite Order and the spirits on Korriban doesn't submit that easily
I’d just like to point out, the Hundred Year Darkness was pre-discovery of Korriban. At that point, Pall, Syn, Dreypa and the rest were just heretical Dark Jedi, they discovered the Sith species after their defeat and exile.
You had everything right except the Hundred Years Darkness. That war was actually the second of four schism wars between the Jedi n Dark Jedi. The Dark Jedi was exiled after the Second Schism War (Hundred Years Darkness - 7000 BBY) n crash landed on Korriban. That is when they started their path to becoming Dark Lords of the Sith. The official first war in Legends between the Jedi and the Sith Lords was the Great Hyperspace War (5000 BBY) which started the era known as the Old Sith Wars (5000 BBY - 3951 BBY). New Sith Wars (3681 BBY - 1000 BBY). Altogether seven eras in Legends: Pre-Republic ( Beginning of the galaxy - 25000 BBY), The Old Republic (25000 BBY - 1000 BBY), Rise of the Empire (1000 BBY - 0 BBY), Rebellion (0 BBY - 5 ABY), New Republic (5 ABY - 25 ABY), New Jedi Order ( 25 ABY - 40 ABY), Legacy (40 ABY - 140 ABY). BBY = Before the Battle of Yavin, ABY = After the Battle of Yavin.
I loved this. I am in the middle of going through Path of destruction again and this lined up perfectly with that! I love philosophy in Star Wars and the Sith have some of the best. Great video man!

The Sith Lords were the embodiment of ALL evil in the Star Wars galaxy. Darkness always rises with the light to always meet it in battle and strike out the dark in the end. I wonder if one day the forces of evil will be eliminated in a great apocalyptic battle and the forces of light will reign forever?
Did the Sith see themselves as evil or did they just see that the Dark side was the way forward? In essence, did they revel in their evilness in a moustache twirling way, saying "I am evil cause I am and I do evil things?" or was it more complicated than that?
Yep, Bane found Revan's Holocron on Lehon/Rakata Prime if I remember correctly. Fun fact, Drew Karshpyn, the guy who wrote the Darth Bane Trilogy, is also the guy who wrote Knights of The Old Republic.

"If the force demands balance then evil can never die" this is why I originally thought Luke wanted the Jedi to end and was going to be the theme for TLJ. But no he just wanted to milk the space cow
Darth Krayt had the best idea he just needed to tweak the system so as to allow an unannounced successor. He could then have had Sith in top positions that played different roles but were also in competition, this would allow powerful force using allies who would be too busy competing with each other than trying to take power and at the same time have a loyalty to the ideal of the one leader. In this way he could have the rule of one with with more of elements of the role of two.
Sorry for answering this late lol. You are right of course however, we do have another sith lord who does this in an efficient manner, Marka Ragnos. This dude ruled for 100 years in what was called ''The Golden Age of the Sith''. He focused on rulling the sith and not expanding in the galaxy. He let the sith fight amongst themselves, while he ruled over them, too powerful to be challenged.
Eckhart tends to include his perception of how tech would have advanced between the eras, and for every cross era vs that he has done the more 'modern' era wins out.
Galactic Empire has better ships, a massive fleet, Thrawn and Sidious. Sidious can beat Revan anyday. Think about it. Revan Lost to Vitiate, who is on the same level as Sidious.
@@alessandrofabiano2819 Vitiate was the most powerful Sith ever, period. He used the powers Darth Nihilus had (Without turning into a husk) and gained immortality and ascended into an energy being. (Like Ancients in Stargate.. or Anubis, he had the same plan to wipe the galaxy after all.) Btw yes, the Star Forge could have been successful at first, but Death Star can just shoot out the Star Forge, and then Revan cant get more ships, weapons, droids. With his charisma, it is arguable he could still manage to gather some to his side, but a more interesting question would be Vitiate's Sith Empire vs Galactic Empire. Given how the lore was a bit twisted so that the old Sith Empire resembled the GE, and given how many powerful Sith and superweapons they owned, let alone Vitiate, I'd argue it would be a bloody fight, and Sidious would eventually lose. Maybe not, if he owns the "Republic-Empire' core territories, and Sith Empire owns the old territories, If they would own what after the Treaty of Coruscant, Id say Sith Empire is clear winner. Unless they sabotage themselves as they usually do. In that case, Sidious' centralized Empire has more chances.
@@Grivehn Many sources call Palps the strongest Sith lord ever. And the Empire had a way larger fleet. Stormtroopers are better than Sith Troopers due to their armor, numbers and tech. The Empire's navy, not only is huge, but also more advanced technologically than Revan's. I'm sorry but Palps stomps.
@Eckhsrtladder: According to the novel: Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, Darth Bane didn't create The Rule of Two, Darth Revan created it, Bane only enforced The Rule of Two
Darth bane created it, there was only small "speculations" about it before him. That is like saying, Elon musk only enforced tesla because someone thought about it before him.
Hey could you do a timeline of the Sith? For instance, when Revan happened, when Bane happened, and Exar Kun Freedon Nadd, etc. I always get confused about which Sith happened before the other.
Honestly I’m not even that big a fan of the Star Wars films but seeing all this effort and history that honestly doesn’t have to be there is super interesting

The Siths history has always been quite fascinating to me. And I love how they have quite a long one too. My favorite Era would have to be during The Old Republic, it is quite an awesome one! :)
True. Even EA recognized how good it could be, and harnessed only a part of its potential
Well, the Sith are the antithesis of the Jedi, they both make up the core of the original Star Wars Trilogy as well as the prequel series. They had to have a history at least as interesting, or more in this case, than the Jedi.
Robert Nelson I agree! :)

Star Chaser swtor had so much potential and it kinda just stagnanted
Star Chaser FACTS
Bane: the strongest will survive, and carry on the legacy of the dark side. Death is a privilege.
Also bane: *stabs all rivals in the back in their sleep*
Firstly, Bane would consider deception, stealth, and alertness forms of strength so anyone stabbed in the back is weak. Secondly, Bane’s only kills on fellow Sith were killing a student in a duel, killing a student in a fight that erupted after he was ambushed, killing his teacher with a force push as he lost a duel, and tricking Kaan into nuking the rest of the Sith which certainly proves their weakness given that they were unambitious and foolish enough to follow him.

@@theoperator5503 love it or hate itc they're cannon. Your opinion (sadly) can't change it
@@TheFuriousBean Precisely. You don't get to decide Canon.
Okay, this was your most epic one yet. Your talking was very different before, this was like someone telling a story instead of your usual style. Not overdone aswell. Ya did it with this one in my opinion.
In retrospect, Bane's rule of two effectively signaled the downfall of the order.
This. Bane traded a thousand years of obscurity and struggle for what, 20 years of supremacy? 30? Only for it to all go tits up because one Sith had a change of heart and threw his master down a reactor shaft.
Even if the individual Sith of the rule of two were more powerful (which is VERY debatable) the order itself only really thrived for a ridiculously brief period, while earlier Sith orders managed to retain power for several decades if not centuries. Bane was one of the worst things to happen to the Sith and if not for Palpatine, they probably wouldn't have amounted to anything at all.
@@dominict9325 the rule of two was only created for the siths survival. Darth Bane created the rule of two based on Darth Revans holocran. However revans life gives us a clue on why the rule of two wouldn’t work. In the new sith wars (hate that name btw) the problem was multiple apprentices would work together to kill the master which ion know why the have so many apprenticeship in the first place. If Bane had combined the rule of two with the sith empire that would have made discovery much easier. Also multiple sith will receive ancient knowledge and add their own research or experience with the dark side. Which if that’s the case this system will surpass its predecessor. So basically there is only one master and one apprentice but there can be as many duo’s as you want. Infighting is still there but it gives new users positions of power which satisfy everyone. Leading to less infighting. The rule is once you either kill your master or rank up to a Sith Lord then you can have one apprentice unless you die or the apprentice ranks up. (But that’s just how I’d do it if I was in Darth Banes situation).
@@dominict9325 Hard disagree. The Sith by Bane's time were essentially wiped out. Bane realized that while galatic conquest may eventually be a goal of the Sith, for now it was about survival. The Rule of Two ensured that there would always be at least 1 Sith around, so they would never be truly gone. This also forced the Sith to rethink how they would gain power and control. They would have to be more cunning, be forced to work behind the scenes and use intrigue, diplomacy, social skills, ect. You know. The things that build successful civilizations.
Like it or not, an empire built by people who are fighting each other more than the enemy, corrupted by the literal cosmic energy of evil, and who are also zealots of a religion that idolizes suffering, subjugation, betrayal, hatred and endless thirst for power that will never be satisfied doesn't make for a very stable civilization. Their new ideology made them focus more on influence than outright control, and it was incredibly successful, with literally every single named Sith Lord after the Rule of Two was implemented being some of the most influential figures in the galaxy. Darth Plaugius was chairman of the banking clan. Darth Tenebrous was one of the most successful star-ship designers of all time. Darth Vecticus owned a massive mining colony. The list goes on.
Yes, the Sith's goal of ultimate power and control would be harder to obtain without being able to just slaughter and/or enslave anyone who opposed them, but it would guarantee their order would continue on essentially forever, and once they did manage to gain total control, it would be a much more stable grasp. Bane's Rule of Two almost single-handedly saved the Sith from total extinction and gave them a much better system overall. Your "20-30 years of supremacy" is only taking into account Palpatine's time as the mf EMPEROR OF THE WHOLE GALAXY. Not the decades prior he had of political control, massive amounts of wealth and influence, and oh yeah, that time he set up an entire fake war between his order's millenia old enemy and rebel group, both of which he was in control of the entire time, with him ending up the winner no matter who won. And this is petty much the story for every Sith since the time of Darth Bane. Maybe not the level of galatic emperor, but highly powerful figures in their own right.

@@lil_halfrican_boi2124 I hear you, good points but I defer to Darth Traya who was the Master of 2 great sith. "Compared to the Sith of old, we are merely children playing with toys.". Plus with all the canon material, there has been more than 2 sith almost consistently through the years. Even during Palpatine's time. Maul survived when Dooku was his apprentice. When Vader was his apprentice Starkiller was Vaders apprentice and so on and so on. I know you'll probably respond with saying they weren't true sith at the time but they were dark side users using sith force powers.
I just think the ancient sith were more powerful because they had many more challengers than just one apprentice. The 'OG sith had to deal with their apprentice and all the other sites out for their necks. Seems the line after Bane had it a lot easier.

Kenneth Kates the grey you cowering self serving, hypocritical bastards. You run from the order, which you see problems in. But instead of fixing it hide away from it. slowly eroding away to nothing. You see the problems of both the jedi. and sith and yet you run from them, instead of helping or fixing them. You don't abandon the force, when you see the problems it causes. But instead you use it to help no one but yourself. You hide in exile when the whole galaxy needs you. You don't ever help, all you do is loath, and loath is all you'll ever do. You are contempt to let it burn, to ash, cinder, and nothing. let the whole galaxy, and it's people burn, from the fire of war. You can't choose light or dark, rather you hide away, perching the grey and it's "magnificence and holy glory.". You should try to fix the order, but instead you exile yourself. You sicken me to the core.
Nice timing, I just started reading Darth Bane the other day.

You were deceived. And now, your Republic shall fall"
This was probably my favorite video I have seen on your channel in the past year I’ve been watching. Loveeeee the feel of this one!
The rule of two never really made sense. Darth Bane failed to see the real weakness of the sith. The number of sith wasn't the problem it was their philosophy. It's their self destructive and power hungry nature which led them to destruction.
The rule of two, to work, needs the sith to be selfless while asking them to remain selfish in order to become stronger. Realistically with such philosophy, never any master was going to let his aprentice overthrew him. And I can't name any sith of the rule of two who overpowered his master. Each time the master died was either out of pure luck or cheat.
Bane tried to "save" the sith but didn't want them to really change. Unlike him, Vitiate knew the sith were doomed and left them to create something new. The One sith was arguably the best one, but the nature of the sith overall remained...
Tobirama-sensei 100 percent correct, rule of two was always fucking stupid, sith are to selfish to keep their power
Tobirama-sensei true and the Jedi are almost as bad. they're hypocritical, narrow minded, and shun what makes them human. And grey Jedi are even worse. They see the problems of the order but do not change it they just run away from it.
Agreed, Bane was a fucking moron.

1:20- Actually, the Hundred Year Darkness is the conflict that led to Ajunta Pall and his followers initial exile. They didn’t find the Sith until after that.
Yeah. The "Sith" weren't Sith weren't Sith when they first fought the Jedi. They were just other Jedi, with different ideas.
In fact, it's possible that the Light Jedi actually attacked the Dark Jedi first for heresy, sparking the conflict to begin with.
Lemme rant. I know George Lucas said Star Wars was made for kids, (which i don’t agree with) but I swear if they made an Old Republic trilogy, just ONE trilogy, that was extremely dark, maybe even rated R, my life would honestly be complete. To see the mercilessness and just how badass the old Sith were on screen, my god that would be perfect. I mean Disney owns Fox, and they are making Deadpool 2 which is rated R, so I really hope it isn’t too far fetched. And it doesn’t even have to be rated R tho! Just one trilogy that isn’t full of annoying unnecessary jokes and not full of “good guys win cuz good better than bad yay” like a trilogy that is dark would be so noice
So you want the franchise to go against its original intention? Good luck with that.
It's not something you can disagree with. It's fact. It's like saying Obama was never President, he was. Star Wars was made for kids, but that doesn't mean it has to be entirely enjoyed by them.
@Gorgonite Emissary yeah. Pretty much since we nevr really go into detail about any od that.
It was made for kids, u just never grew up.
It's based of a samari legend (atleast the original trilogy) he just replaced samari swords with lightsabers . And rating are basically determined by cussing(which in a scifi\space series you can make up your own that don't need to be censored) and nudity\sex which isn't a big plot point in SW.most things get higher rating just because they say fuck a couple of times
Really love the focus on the Sith! Sometimes I enjoy moving away from ships and militaries and then focusing upon the Force and its cults.

Mmm that valkorion theme ❤️
Fuck Valkorion and fuck Zakuul.
Vitiate DIED on either DK or Ziost by the hand of JK(Hero of Tython- preferably former choice aka during the Battle of DK). PERIOD.
Like him or hate him he has one cool theme
I won't try to deny that!
Also he looks cool(like a gray / white haired Mengsk tbh) and he could've been a very cool character in other, more High Quality content. I don't hate him(or Zakuul for that matter), just the way they've been handled. How they just appeared and destroyed the Republic. Oh lol! 10s of HUGE ASS WARS couldn't do that, but "Zakuul" could. lol wtf?
Zvonko Fonko, I’m not the biggest fan of that either as it took him 1300 years to rebuild the sith empire but only took him 300 years to build the eternal empire........ I like vitiate but they did overused him with the eternal empire stuff
While we're at it, how did he manage to manage both The Sith Empire and The Eternal Empire? How did he manage to rule over gigant that is former while building the latter? Almost all of the explanations are flimsy at best.
Not to mention his cringe family / associates(Valkorion's).
Best to keep Valk as an awesome concept and to use him elsewhere(and forget that Zakuul ever happened). Could be one helluva character!
That is such an amazing quote: "If the will of the force demands balance, then evil can never die." Also, excellent choice in music.

I’d just like to point out, the Hundred Year Darkness was pre-discovery of Korriban. At that point, Pall, Syn, Dreypa and the rest were just heretical Dark Jedi, they discovered the Sith species after their defeat and exile.
My era's best, no questions asked...
You had everything right except the Hundred Years Darkness. That war was actually the second of four schism wars between the Jedi n Dark Jedi. The Dark Jedi was exiled after the Second Schism War (Hundred Years Darkness - 7000 BBY) n crash landed on Korriban. That is when they started their path to becoming Dark Lords of the Sith. The official first war in Legends between the Jedi and the Sith Lords was the Great Hyperspace War (5000 BBY) which started the era known as the Old Sith Wars (5000 BBY - 3951 BBY). New Sith Wars (3681 BBY - 1000 BBY). Altogether seven eras in Legends: Pre-Republic ( Beginning of the galaxy - 25000 BBY), The Old Republic (25000 BBY - 1000 BBY), Rise of the Empire (1000 BBY - 0 BBY), Rebellion (0 BBY - 5 ABY), New Republic (5 ABY - 25 ABY), New Jedi Order ( 25 ABY - 40 ABY), Legacy (40 ABY - 140 ABY). BBY = Before the Battle of Yavin, ABY = After the Battle of Yavin.

The Sith Lords were the embodiment of ALL evil in the Star Wars galaxy. Darkness always rises with the light to always meet it in battle and strike out the dark in the end.

As always, that intro music goes hard.
Did the Sith see themselves as evil or did they just see that the Dark side was the way forward? In essence, did they revel in their evilness in a moustache twirling way, saying "I am evil cause I am and I do evil things?" or was it more complicated than that?
I'm diggin the content on your channel man keep up the good work!
The Rule of Two that Darth Bane Implemented, he was inspired by the relationship between Revan and Malek, if I recall correctly.
Yep, Bane found Revan's Holocron on Lehon/Rakata Prime if I remember correctly. Fun fact, Drew Karshpyn, the guy who wrote the Darth Bane Trilogy, is also the guy who wrote Knights of The Old Republic.

How would u rank it?
Old republic/ survival of the fittest era Sith.
Brotherhood of Darkness era Sith.
Rule of Two era.
Rule of one era.
Darth Krayt had the best idea he just needed to tweak the system so as to allow an unannounced successor. He could then have had Sith in top positions that played different roles but were also in competition, this would allow powerful force using allies who would be too busy competing with each other than trying to take power and at the same time have a loyalty to the ideal of the one leader. In this way he could have the rule of one with with more of elements of the role of two.
Sorry for answering this late lol. You are right of course however, we do have another sith lord who does this in an efficient manner, Marka Ragnos. This dude ruled for 100 years in what was called ''The Golden Age of the Sith''. He focused on rulling the sith and not expanding in the galaxy. He let the sith fight amongst themselves, while he ruled over them, too powerful to be challenged.
Revans Sith Empire vs Galactic Empire
Eckhart tends to include his perception of how tech would have advanced between the eras, and for every cross era vs that he has done the more 'modern' era wins out.
Corwin Hyatt well technology wise, they equal since the dark age happened.
Galactic Empire has better ships, a massive fleet, Thrawn and Sidious. Sidious can beat Revan anyday. Think about it. Revan Lost to Vitiate, who is on the same level as Sidious.
@@alessandrofabiano2819 Vitiate was the most powerful Sith ever, period. He used the powers Darth Nihilus had (Without turning into a husk) and gained immortality and ascended into an energy being. (Like Ancients in Stargate.. or Anubis, he had the same plan to wipe the galaxy after all.)
Btw yes, the Star Forge could have been successful at first, but Death Star can just shoot out the Star Forge, and then Revan cant get more ships, weapons, droids. With his charisma, it is arguable he could still manage to gather some to his side, but a more interesting question would be
Vitiate's Sith Empire vs Galactic Empire. Given how the lore was a bit twisted so that the old Sith Empire resembled the GE, and given how many powerful Sith and superweapons they owned, let alone Vitiate, I'd argue it would be a bloody fight, and Sidious would eventually lose.
Maybe not, if he owns the "Republic-Empire' core territories, and Sith Empire owns the old territories, If they would own what after the Treaty of Coruscant, Id say Sith Empire is clear winner. Unless they sabotage themselves as they usually do. In that case, Sidious' centralized Empire has more chances.
@@Grivehn Many sources call Palps the strongest Sith lord ever. And the Empire had a way larger fleet. Stormtroopers are better than Sith Troopers due to their armor, numbers and tech. The Empire's navy, not only is huge, but also more advanced technologically than Revan's. I'm sorry but Palps stomps.

@Eckhsrtladder:
According to the novel: Darth Bane: Path of Destruction,
Darth Bane didn't create The Rule of Two, Darth Revan created it, Bane only enforced The Rule of Two
