still he had a position of some kind in the old republic anyway so he might of just got that

Slornie · « **Reply #21 on:** June 07, 2007, 03:10:20 PM »

he was a governor, and that position was awarded to him by Palpatine, as were his future promotions, if Palpatine hadnt been there he would have just been another ordinary official

but what would happen to the rebel leaders to be

Slornie · « **Reply #23 on:** June 07, 2007, 04:12:48 PM »

they were all Senators werent they

Admiral Stephen · « **Reply #24 on:** June 07, 2007, 04:26:39 PM »

they'd probably be in the Imperial Senate because they didn't have anything to Rebels against

Thrawn probably wouldn't have wasted resources on something as big as the Death Star in preparation for the Vong. He would have built more cruisers and the such, because a large fleet can defend a larger area than one sole moon-sized battlestation.

Admiral Stephen · « **Reply #26 on:** June 07, 2007, 05:18:38 PM »

and there'd be no Rebellion

Besides the one that would arise anyway, cause theres always someone against the current regime!

Admiral Stephen · « **Reply #28 on:** June 07, 2007, 06:50:59 PM »

yeah but all those leaders like Mothma and Bail Organa would have no reason to start a rebellion

But the term "Empire" means to rule through military dominance, So technically Thrawn would be deemed an emperor...Or military "leader". How does that make him any better than Palpatine?

Zeron · « **Reply #30 on:** June 07, 2007, 08:43:58 PM »

There's always opposition to the current regime, no matter how good or evil it is.

Well Thrawn wouldn't have oppressed other species like Palpatine. No Human-High Culture.

Even so, People will find ruling through an Empire seen unfit. No democracy, That was one of the main causes for a Rebellion.

Slornie · « **Reply #33 on:** June 08, 2007, 11:53:17 AM »

maybe Thrawn could have restored some of the democratic ruling to the government

Meyer · « **Reply #34 on:** June 08, 2007, 11:59:26 AM »

and do you think people care do they live in democracy or empire. No. People are happy if they are allowed to live their lives in peace, without war and government oppression. Thrawn wouldn't have oppressed people and people would have been happy.

Wal-Mart Shoplifter · « **Reply #35 on:** June 08, 2007, 12:09:36 PM »

There is never peace in an Empire. Wars will happen no matter who is leading. There will always be criminal organization. Who themselves will fight Thrawn's Empire until disbanded. At least in a democracy ruled government there can be a bargain with the criminals.

Slornie · « **Reply #36 on:** June 08, 2007, 12:11:11 PM »

wars arent exclusive to Empire's though - both Republics had them, and i wouldnt have thought it wise for any government to bargain with criminals

Wal-Mart Shoplifter · « **Reply #37 on:** June 08, 2007, 12:20:39 PM »

Prime example The Hutt criminal organization, The New Republic has numerous meetings with them.

Slornie · « **Reply #38 on:** June 08, 2007, 12:22:04 PM »

i suppose you could also add Talon Karrde and the Smugglers Alliance as well

Meyer · « **Reply #39 on:** June 08, 2007, 01:41:25 PM »

hutt meetings went well. Darksaber!
Besides there will always be problems, in all government types. Republic, Democracy, Empire, Kingdom.
Thrawn's empire would have been one of the least corrupt I think in all Star Wars governments.
