Why Palpatine HATED the Sith Homeworld of Korriban 

that could be a robot chicken episode, now that i think of it. imagine that actually becomes an episode after i post this comment

Chances are the ghosts didn't bully Palpatine so much as screw with him in such a way that he was in a ridiculous outfit after the fact and Palpatine thought so this is what means to be a Sith and thaught that to Vader. And that's why Vader kept screwing with Lando, "put on this dress and bonit, where these cloen shoes and call yourself Mary, ride a unicycle wherever you go" I'l mean by the end Lando is ready to do all that crap just to get Vader to stop raising the stakes.

@@donovanbradford8231 I wonder at what point you start to rethink your life choices as a sith. May be when the ghosts of Christmas past taunt you while you're preparing breakfast

Agreed

@@MrRippis everything he says tho is for his own game. He never pays respect to the lineage unless hes manipulating someone to do his bidding

1st rule of Sith Club, Don't talk about Sith Club. 😁

@@theonlymatthew.lI love this joke so much. First rule of dragon flight club is that there is no dragon flight club

It's cause they made fun of his appearance

And we have yoda over here casually talking to the ghost of darth bane

This is why the Sith will never truly die. There is always some spirit, lingering, waiting to be found by some gullible fool so that the Sith can be reborn once again.

@@elektrogamer-roblox8717 Maybe because of his inner light side, he was not charmed, furthermore, he was guided by the priestesses. I remember the scene when some sith "priests" are surrounding Yoda, but he doesn't seem to be afraid.

Well if you've ever played SWTOR as a Sith you'd knock those ghosts are some real dicks.

@@zefft.f4010 Or waiting to be bound to that person unwillingly

Well... They did saw their empire and subsequent incarnations fell.

I think when he went into the valley of the dark lords for the first time they made fun of his appearance and pompous attitude lmao. He never went back.

@@A_Black_Sheep94 I can see palpapatine running back “master plagius “ *sniffles and sobs* “the dark lords were mean to me”

“Darth Python farts in your general direction”

I'm not gonna lie I have this idea in my head of Bane, Revan, Malgus and other Sith Lords just trolling Palpatine pulling a Robot Chicken with a dress, clown shoes, unicycle, and calling himself Mary. Palpatine gets pissed leaves while the laugh and as he's flying away he says, "you know that was a really good troll I'm gonna teach that to Vader and him start using that.

Empire's End was written during a time we all thought there was only one Dark Lord of the Sith at a time pre-PT. That DLOS was Vader and the throne was his for when he died like all of the other DLOS entombed on Korriban. If you weren't a SW fan during the 90's you don't realize we knew next to nothing about the Sith between Exar Kun and Darth Vader. Even the taking of a false name Darth Vader was thought to be unique to Anakin. I think trying to apply current knowledge to Empire's End Korriban is a pretty broad stretch of retcon.

The ancient sith almost went extinct from their constant infighting. The entire first book about Darth Bane was him trying to address this problem. More than anything, sith spirits like Marka Ragnos and Naga Sadow would’ve been impressed with that solution as their infighting is what caused them to lose in the Hyperspace war and go into hiding for hundreds of years at dromund kaas.

@@bdgregorybd darth banes solution was not a sith solution. The correct solution (from a sith perspective) for the hyperspace war. Is you don't leave your enemies alive after a civil war.

@@markcarpenter6020 that’s exactly what bane did though since he considered the other sith his enemy

@@jakealter5504 that's what bane did but he set it up so no one after him would have to prove themselves against other sith(appreciate against apprentice, master against master). I think bane has good intentions but I think his method weakend the sith in the long term. But that is just my personal opinion.

They were also failures who didn't understand the Sith Code. They took it as an excuse to throw temper tantrums, not realizing that the code is rooted in self-control and self-improvement.

Didn't Bane kill off the remaining Sith to usher in the rule of two? Is that not an act of strength

@@bebopong No, he didn't. He waited in the shadows until they killed each other off then instituted a short-sighted 'rule' that ensured the majority of sith teachings, skills, knowledge, and power would be lost to time by ignorant infighting and pointless backstabbing. The true Sith ruled openly. They plumbed the secrets of the universe. Sure, they employed stealth and assassination, but they also fought duels of honor and raised armies to defend or expand their holdings. The Baneite sith fail to do any of that. They just slink in the shadows, living off scraps and forgetting their heritage.

@@mitchhaelann9215 I see I just read the wiki and it sounds like he survived the war and ended up working clandestinely to organize the killings of the other surviving sith.

@@mitchhaelann9215 Originally he actually did orchestrate their deaths and the death of a shit ton of Jedi. But then they changed it in canon for no reason.

I think Krayt was also accepted, at least by the oldest Sith. Xoxaan herself mentored him.

⁠@@levongevorgyan6789some of the ancient sith accepted Krayt, such as xoxaan, but others hated him. Darth bane went as far as to call him a wannabe sith at one point.

@@ALUCARD-us3il Darth Bane isn't an ancient Sith. Hell, the ancient Sith would probably see him as a pathetic, cowardly cultist hiding in the dark, using subterfuge and economics and politics to weaken his enemy instead of the dark sorceries, armies, and might of the Sith. Krayt was more like the ancient Sith the Bane ever was.

The sith will grant knowledge. But only if you prove yourself to them. At heart the sith believed in survival of the fittest. Constantly proving yourself against the other sith that would try to drag you down. The rule of two sith his in shadows and limited the number of sith to keep competition to a minimum. The ancient sith would likely view any rule of two sith as weak not daring to face true competition.

@@markcarpenter6020 Both orders have their own advantages. Rule of Many: The Sith were numerous and a constant threat to the Jedi and Republic, fighting rivals meant a Sith could potentially grow stronger, but it often meant you had to trust no one and grow strong quickly, or else those who hate you could try to kill you. However the downside is that with so many Sith, they could gang up on a stronger Sith and kill them. This meant only the strongest survived, but make enough enemies and they could easily ban together. Rule of 2: Downside there are only 2 official Sith and a small number of Acolytes, meaning the Sith had to remain hidden and often fight the Jedi only when necessary. It also meant when enacting schemes the Sith often had to use pawns and rely on others to get what they want without drawing too much attention, as if the Jedi found them out, it would not go well. Upside though few in number having 1 Master and Apprentice meant the Sith would be more patient, as the student had no chance of killing their master unless they learned enough. But this resulted in where the Apprentice was often powerful enough to fight even Jedi Knights and maybe a Master. The Master would teach the student, in time would come a test where the student could try to kill the Master and take their place. This meant that the student was stronger, and thus the Sith as a whole logically only got stronger and stronger, but it also meant the Master HAD to teach all they knew and be careful, for i they died nt by the student's hand then their knowledge would be lost.

@@TheZamaron while both have their disadvantages I think the disadvantages of the rule of two are slightly worse(just my personal take). I think the problem with the sith is the lack of any form of ethics. I mean it's completely possible to do good things for selfish reasons (example: building a homeless shelter to clean up an area and raise it's property values). And they have the same problem as the pre empire Jedi seeing emotional attachment as a weakness instead of a source of strength.(what could inspire more anger and hatred than someone who threatens a loved one).

@@markcarpenter6020 Sith lacking ethics is why they're cool. They are bad guys after all. The whole aim of the Sith is power, at any cost. Sure there have been Sith who did what they did for reasons that seem right, but most Sith are selfish, that's why the Rule of Many Sith never completely defeated the Jedi, they eventually always fell to infighting which is why Bane ended them and started the Rule of Two.

@@TheZamaron infighting is intentional. It's to make sure the most powerful is at the top and weed out the weak. And that doesn't mean they can't have a form of ethics. They seek power, to rule, but to what purpose, that is where ethics come in. What is your vision for the universe what do you seek to accomplish. Power like money is a means to an end not the end itself. Personally I would see power as a way to protect what is MINE(people, places and things) and keep them from ever being taken from me.

And to compete with each other so only the strongest and most cunning stood at the top. Something the rule of two was specifically designed to stop. The ancient sith would likely see any rule of two sith as weak and no true sith for those very reasons.

@@markcarpenter6020 The rule of two was designed to return the sith to the old ways, not to stop killing. It’s literally inherent to the rule of two, the apprentice must kill the master. Don’t forget they were coming from Lord Kaan’s order where they had removed infighting.

@@e13kid I didn't say it would stop killing I said it would stop competition. With the ancient sith sith Lord competed against sith Lord in a survival of the fittest affair. A rule of two sith Lord only competed against an apprentice would would be no danger to them unless the sith Lord became weak or complacent. I'm not saying the rule of two didn't have good intentions, but I'm saying it is far from what the ancient sith believed. Remember competition breeds innovation and evolution the only people the rule of two sith competed against were really the Jedi. The master had a monopoly on the dark side or as bane said embodied power. The apprentice seeks that power but it would rarely fall into their hands till the master stumbled. Instead of a mechanism to strengthen the sith the rule of two was a mechanism to weed out a weakening sith Lord.

@@e13kid Unless the master & apprentice are both females... >:/

The Sith path was always doomed. They'll never grow beyond themselves if they only ever seek to dominate and rule.

The in-universe explanation for that was because for the Sith Eternal, having the place on Korriban was “too obvious”. But Exegol was still too random.

Wtf is korabon?

@@stonedivider6305 my bad lol

@@stonedivider6305 It look like a bon2 candy from asia

What about the moons being deathstars but hollowed out so the ships could detach from it and fly off?

It just comes down to the difference of the rule of two vs the original Sith belief of overwhelming might and numbers imo. The two groups wanted nothing to do with each other.

This is why I think that deep within the sandy dunes of Korriban, there is a very hidden dark side society (possibly a single descending lineage of the Sith species) protecting powerful artifacts possibly predating the order itself! Which is why I can imagine a comic series called Star Wars: Dark Enclave!

@@christinejorgens6577 Kissai descendents (degenerated into primitives) do persist I think into Luke's time but I've never liked the focus on artifacts. Darth Lara Croft is a fun idea but I think there's a force nexus at the core of that world. Like an evil batery, sometimes drained but never gone.

@@christinejorgens6577 It is said that in the wake of the Great Hyperspace war - and the near-extinction of the Sith species - that many enclaves of Kissai and Massassi remained. Most likely due to taking shelter in expansive tomb complexes, or even caves. I like to think that some small enclaves of the Sith species do remain on Korriban, even if they rarely emerge into the light of day.

@@christinejorgens6577 Weren't the original Sith species much weaker than the other dark side force users? They were dominated and enslaved after all.

@@saj2392 They were still members of the Sith Empire after Revans time so I doubt they would have just completely died off.

Palpatine is the most powerful Sith Lord up until his time

@@stargatecommand714 I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't as powerful as the ancients.

@@ecasino29 the only one that's on the same level is Vitiate, and he had to use technology to get to that point

@@stargatecommand714 And Palpatine almost died to a Sith ancient spirit. It wouldn't surprise me if he isn't powerful as an ancient Sith.

Agreed The Ancient sith Masters know what's up and Palpatine wasn't interested in keeping on with the sith ways. He was only interested in hording power for himself and living forever .

Still, it does spit in the face of certain Jedi beliefs that Sith cannot leave behind spirits.

Yeah it can be interpreted as mockery but I do think the ancient sith did recognize Vader as one of them , a warrior that win his battles through strength and cunning tactics . Not a politician, puppetry under the shadows .

Korriban and Moraband are the same planet. Also, the problem with Exegol is that it's located on the complete opposite side of the galaxy from the rest of the sith worlds. And that's not even getting into my personal opinions regarding what Disney dares to call "canon"

Actually, this is a great idea. I would love to see more videos about Sith worlds and in-depth videos about the Sith empires (social structure, etc)

Personally, I would add Dromund Kaas, and other planets, more or less connected with Sith.

@@karolwnuk8244 All of Sith Space and a few scattered worlds within or near the Radama Void (Yavin 4 is located in the Gordian Reach, but it nevertheless lies near the Radama Void, which borders Sith Space, and so still counts, especially given thar it was discovered and made a hideout by the ancient Sith Lord, Naga Sadow, and was also the base of operations for the Sith Lord, Exar Kun a thousand years later.).😎👍

@@timvanhoeck7018 so what’s the word about that? Filoni messed up on lore research, or has the planet now officially always had 2 names?

The light shines brightest in the darkest darkness.

The main difference is that vitiate wanted to become immortal by consuming all life in the galaxy while palpatine sought a different method since he actually wanted to have people to rule

I think it really just comes down to the difference between the original Sith beliefs and values vs the rule of two. They're incompatible.

​@@jakealter5504 He didn't want an empire of the dead.

@@concept5631 exactly

Yes I totally agree. Palpatine is more like a dictator on steroids but the ancient sith spent thier lives in battle so it would make much more sense that they would be more powerfull combat wise.

Sidious was the most powerful Sith to ever live...

That “He’s the strongest Sith in history” Was only used to hype up the bad guy. It’s literally Movie Promo 101…

So Darth Krayt?

@@user-yq9im9dk9z To my knowledge only one of the ancient sith helped him, I could be wrong on that though. However his rule of 1 was just as stupid as the Baneite Code in my opinion, as it relyed on principles that the modern sith simply lack.

The ancient Sith knew the rule of two was idiocracy.

sith were naturally tuned in with the dark side, before the Rakata showed up. But, an ancient Rakatan artifact on Korriban (one that Revan didn't find), would be awesome

Sith were always dark side. I don't remember the lore ever definitively saying who it was that finally defeated the Rakata? Their biggest downfall was loosing their connection to the force, followed by one of their slave species unleashing a plague designed specifically to target them. Beyond that I remember the lore being vague.

The heart of the planet was literally a piece of space-cthullu, and the Sith Species (the original Sith) evolved from its leakage. The Rakata came much later, tried to conquer the ancient Sith and make them janissaries. soldier-slaves. The sith instigated a rebellion that toppled their empire, stole the secrets of FTL travel from them, and reverse-engineered the secrets of the holocron from them. That's right. the SITH mastered the holocron first, the Jedi stole that technology for themselves later.

This sounds so weird

@@user-yq9im9dk9z I get that but if you weren’t a fan in the 90s you don’t realize we knew nothing about the sith between Exar Kun and Vader. Palpatine was never referred to as a Sith before the PT and the assumption was only Vader was a Sith and we had no idea how he got the title of Dark Lord and even taking the false name Darth Vader was assumed to be unique to Anakin.

Adding to this when Luke turned to the dark side in Dark Empire Palp never mentioned the Sith or gave him a Darth name. We thought Palp was just some dark side user.

@@ericbrown8479 Well technically most Sith never got the title of Darth, that was reserved for the best of the best. In SWTOR there are around 12 Darths. Many others were lords but still not the majority. Most were just apprentices and would never live to become even a lord.

@@A_Black_Sheep94 I get that. I'm just speaking in context of what we knew about the Sith prior to the PT. The only Darth Sith at the time was Vader.

All they really got going for them is Kolto lol

Kahn and Ruin weren't Banite Sith.

Check out the Jedi Academy trilogy, Luke Skywalker establishes his first Jedi Training Center on Yavin, and the academy itself is housed in the main Temple used by the rebels when they launched their counter-attack on the Death Star. It goes into that very topic, very deeply, and as it turns out there's an ancient Sith Lord haunting them. It's one of the first challenges the new Jedi under Luke Skywalker have to deal with, and the storyline is absolutely epic, as with most other expanded universe stuff it's vastly superior to anything we've seen from Disney.

@@draconianemanations2785 I always wanted to get around to playing it since it's well regarded. But now I have another reason on top of that!

@@shutinshogun well there IS a game by that name, and I've heard it's pretty good, but there's a set of (very good) novels too ✌😁

@@draconianemanations2785 Ahh well why not both then lol. My bad

KK pretends Star Wars has no source material because she would have to pay pennies to the writers

It's Still around and existing as it always has. The Jedi of course have long forgotten the lessons Tython teaches.
