    Summary

    THEN:
    In the midst of the Clone Wars, a newly-minted Jedi Knight vanishes, suspected of defecting. But the woman brought back to face the Council is not Knight Tulin, but an officer of an extragalactic organization that calls itself ‘Starfleet’.

    Curiosity, and a determination to rectify the mistake, drive Plo Koon to take the lost Commander Chester under his wing. But between Republic Intelligence’s sinister interest in their extra-galactic visitor, the growing Separatist determination to capture her for themselves, and the good Commander’s own determined escape attempts, keeping Chester alive is hard enough–let alone getting her home.

    NOW:
    In the horrific wake of Order 66, a badly injured Plo Koon stakes his survival on one last desperate hyperspace jump, to a mysterious anomaly that might offer hope for him–and for what little remains of the Jedi Order. For Captain Diane Chester, Plo’s arrival is confirmation of all her fears. Now, she’s got to keep the Empire’s grubby hands off the Alpha Quadrant with only one ship, one Jedi, and that greatest Starfleet tradition–a hell of a lot of showmanship.

    Comparative Politics of Modern Galactic History: Chapter IV
    297 ABY

    In 19 BBY, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine of the Galactic Republic seized power in a military coup. For the next two decades, he would preside over one of the most ambitious and comprehensive programs of statebuilding and political reorganization in recorded history, attempting to turn the loose federal structure of the Old Republic into a tightly-centralized, standardized regime run directly from Imperial Center. The results of this endeavor were, for the most part, catastrophic failure, but the impact can not be understated.

    The following is a chart of the governmental structure of the Galactic Empire, prepared by the Imperial Bureau of Information in 5 BBY for the use of mid-ranking Imperial officials, showing the most important branches of service and chains of command. It represents a contemporary view of how the Empire functioned, from within, at the height of its power, as established by the Declaration of a New Order in 19 BBY and the Imperial Charter of 17 BBY.

    The Galactic Empire Reconsidered: Perspectives on the Third Centenary of the Battle of Endor
    304 ABY

    It is time, and long past time, for a critical reexamination of Palpatine’s rise to power, specifically in regards to some of the most popular and sensationalist beliefs that persist about the Clone Wars and the coup d’etat of 19 BBY. In short, let us ask the following questions: Was Palpatine really a Sith Lord? Were the Clone Wars really the result of a secret Sith plot? Did Darth Sidious, as we must call him, really rule both Republic and Confederacy simultaneously? And what does it mean for our understanding of the Interregnum if none of this is true?
