NOw that i think of it, the Galactic empire is a lot like the Roman Empire.Think about it. Julius cleverly manuevers hinself through the system up to the top. He takes on an apprentice(augustus. ikno he was adopted but you know...) i could go into to more similarities but the one detail that isnt similar is thatthe traitorous senators got the jump on him. ok this might not be the best thought out blog but its been a while and i wanted to get something out to ya.
