Galactic Empire

"Ruled with an iron fist by the ruthless Emperor Palpatine, the Galactic Empire spans countless systems where its signature Stormtroopers maintain order. The might of the Imperial Fleet and Army has no equal, and yet it is embroiled in an ongoing conflict with the defiant Rebel Alliance, whose members refuse to bow to Imperial rule."

— In-game description

The Galactic Empire is a faction in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront and Star Wars Battlefront II. The Empire is the fascist totalitarian absolute monarchy founded from the Galactic Republic at the end of the Clone Wars by Emperor Palpatine. The Empire ruled the galaxy with an iron fist, but was eventually defeated by the Rebel Alliance and its successor state, the New Republic, at the end of the Galactic Civil War. They are part of the Dark Side, and their main enemy in the Light Side is the Rebel Alliance.
