But look at the Judicial Forces and all the Admirals that the Republic fields during the Clone Wars that aren't Jedi. They are humans. Even after a 1,000 years, every single person is a human, from the leadership on down. When the Empire took over, that human centrism in the military led to the...

Hmmmm, I do agree to some extent, but I am hesitant to accept the premise that a mega-corp would be a driving force for stability. I guess the problem comes from resource exploitation. If the British go to India, it was mostly about exploiting cheap labor and locally grown commodities. For...

It is about supply chain efficiency. We see it occurring today with the food supply due to Covid. Food processing plants that cater to super markets are completely different than food processing plants that cater to restaurants. Another example is rare earth metals, sure there are a lot of...

I would contend that said individual was smarter than all the Dark Siders and is the true Dark Sider. It is like only real Slytherins aren't in Slytherin. On a more serious note, the issue is that a lot of political positions will involve having to compromise or choosing between the lesser of...

I do like your idea about a GFBI. The biggest issue would come from the people even further up the wealth pyramid, like the robber barons of the roaring 20s. It is not unreasonable to assume that there are individuals out there who can purchase entire systems and close off access. That is the...

The corp would say that X systems are too risky to trade with and embargo. This can then be flipped around and if they don't like a system enough or think it will benefit in the long run, lose a ship and then embargo. Basically it gives the corp the right to cut off trade if you put the...

The risk of stripping capital trade ships of the ability to defend themselves, is who is responsible for a loss in the event of piracy. If the trade mega-corps are held responsible, then they can easily black list systems as 'too risky' and force them to terms. If you put the risk on the local...

I think that the various systems will join together to fight resist other systems over time, eventually forming a galaxy wide government. How long said government lasts and the type depends, but unless there is a deterring factor, (Limited communications/travel, super weapons, bigger...

1. Bacta can only produced on a single planet. Same with that one type of mind spice on Kessel. Full stop. Massive ship yards that can build capital ships are present in about 10 or so systems. Most of the production is centered on Kuat with its massive orbital ring. Tibanna gas is only present...

Hmmm, I think with your comparison, the Death Star is something only a galactic level government can build. There really isn't an equivalent to modern day. Star Destroyers/Capital Ships are like tanks to today's world. Someone can build a couple hundred tanks in secret if they have enough money...

The issue with mega-corps comes from the sheer size of the galaxy. If you look at the US, Disney owns an entire county. It is not unreasonable to expect corporations to own entire systems. Like a system is just some barren rocks, so they set up a mining venture, looking at Mustafaar. I do...

I would argue there is a legitimate reason in regards to reducing waste and the bureaucracy of a million different systems. If each System had different laws, prices and trade would be hit very hard. Then there is the threat of mega-corps gobbling up large portions of the galaxy. The only way to...

Really well thought out. So the biggest concern is shipping and mega-corps. The sheer volume needed requires large ships. Due to the investment in them, they would need adequate defenses, but are traveling across multiple Systems. Like the Trade Federation needs a fleet x100 larger than a normal...

But the size was a lot smaller for the majority of that time and more homogeneous. Each time there was a war they got more territory. I think it was once maybe twice that the Sith had their own Empire and then they found the Republic, they fought and the Republic gobbled up said space. The...

That is what I am trying to figure out with my post. Is there anything besides a ham fisted galactic empire that has even a chance of managing the entire galaxy? All super large galactic governments seem to devolve to this, cough, looking at you 40k, cough. I do strongly agree with the usurp...

Well we can look at a couple of the public examples, Gungans, Wookies, and Hutts. Wookies are human shaped but can't speak basic. Gungans are....Gungans. Hutts don't have anything resembling a human body. Most seem to full in a human ranged spectrum of behaviors with nothing completely...

Then the question is, is the Force ruler Light or Dark? None of that gray nonsense either. True the Republic doesn't rule everything, but besides the Hutt Cartels, it is the only galaxy wide government present. The issue with something like this is that things like ship building are confined...

If we go with Legends then the Vong is a big one. Also it is the only way to fight the large Hutt cartels. When you have slavery in over a third of the galaxy, from a purely moral standpoint, having a single unifying power to put an end to all that is a good reason. Like a state type of...

The question I wanted to ask the forum is, 'What is the best way to govern The Galaxy in Star Wars?' This issue has a singular main component, the size of the Star Wars galaxy is stupidly large. Star Wars Population. Star Wars Senate. Star Wars Population Cannon. The exact size/population is...
