The ONLY 4 People Palpatine Respected ENTIRELY (Not Who You Think) - Star Wars Explained

I wish we had more Lore on the Four Sages of Dwartii, they always felt fascinating to me. It kinda makes sense that the Galactic Republic was founded on Dark Side teachings when you look at the Dark Side promoting growth and competitiveness, compared to the Light Side that seemingly promotes stagnation.

I look forward to the day where we get to hear more about these four sages Sidious admired so much.

Lore aside, those statues would make really nice ornaments for my living room...

Four Sages of Dwartii, sounds like a Toad wet Sprocket album.

I had no idea they were so faceted. Its neat to hear lore like that. This piece of lore is dynamic holding a yin and yang effect to both sides both past and present (so to speak).

Video idea, did Darth Revan turn to the Darkside out of Necessity to prevent a greater darkside threat from merging. A theory From Darth Trya

This is extremely interesting. I would like to know more about them. Extremely interesting. Ironic that foundation of the Republic is based on dark side. Mace Windu says oppression of the Sith will never return. Palpatine says once more the Sith will rule the galaxy. Sith ruled the galaxy for a period. Possibly Second Schism. May the Force be with you too😊

Hope we get a series about or at least including Malgus 🤞

There is no greater tool for manipulation, deceit and absolute control than democracy, perhaps that is why the Sith like the 4 sages so much.

what the soundtrack for this vid?

The legend narrator has spoken

What is the music that starts playing at the beggining of the video called? I can't find it in the description

You are the reason why I'm a Star Wars fan :D

I've known about the dark side connections these all have but didn't know about everything else you said. Very interesting!

They represent 'POWER'. I'd like me some of that kind of power.

The interpretation and profitability of the Republic is curious; were the sages responsible for the centrification and power to the core worlds, while neglecting the citizens on outer worlds? Does this policy relate to them and rise of warlords in the outer rims, where as long as taxes are paid, slavery etc are ignored?

These statues are so cool looking and interesting

Totally thought that was an AI Sauron with a lightsaber.

The sages are interesting and I am one of those who believe that those statues had allot to do with his ability to hide from the Jedi. These were powerful dark side artifacts that could help distract or even explain any slips in his mask, in fact I believe it was indicative of the Jedi’s arrogance and willingness to compromise for political reasons. Palpatine collected and displayed dark side artifacts and this seems to have become a fashion among the republic elites. Well these were not terribly useful in themselves they would I suspect have made it difficult for the Jedi to track the movement of the force in the upper echelons of power, perhaps even corrupting those movements shifting them more to the dark, while at the same time glorifying the Sith and dark side in the same elites, glorifying the idea of empire while reinforcing fear of the Jedi. A booming fad in sith artifacts might have also provided him a means of increasing funds and winning support, since he could then sell off the more sith artifacts horded by the rule of two sith, or even gift them to individuals he wanted to win over. All the while the Jedi would do nothing since cracking down on the trade would mean alienating powerful political players, something they no longer had a will to do by the clone wars era. I can totally see some clone war Jedi going “no padawan that senator blank he’s not evil, he just agreed to pay for six new battle cruisers. it’s just the sith battle club on his desk you were sensing”

as a sith fan my self and a person who truly admires the skill and well idea of expansion of the sith lets go sith dark side building up the republic lets go
