  1 million member worlds and 69 million colony worlds. The fact that the Empire believed that they could do a better job than the Republic was the biggest con that Palpatine pulled.

  Imperial Naval Doctrine would've soundly crushed the Confederacy and the Vong, but against the rebels, it wasn't the way, so the Empire deployed special units like Death Squadron or the Storm Commandos to go up against the rebels instead.

  I'm loving when knowledgeable YouTubers deep dive into technical topics like this and unlike film studios, they're not bound by truncating the time length. Reminds me of Frederick Knudson's 5.5 hour deep dive into EVE.

  The Empire when confronted by a full-blown rebellion would have the equivalent of what the British Royal Navy World War 2 mobilization plan which included the use of minor civilian shipyards. These yards built specially designed Admiralty Trawlers for anti-submarine work and war emergency escorts to war service only corvettes and frigates. Larger first-class merchant yards would latter build the numerous light fleet aircraft carriers. <br>In less than a year they Royal Naval more than doubled its size by calling up merchant ships as armed merchant cruisers, armed boarding steamers, minelayers, ships converted into anti-aircraft gun armed convoy escorts; maintence and depot ships; fishing trawlers converted as anti-submarine trawlers or minesweeper trawlers. This was later seeing some tankers and bulk grain ships fitted with a flight deck with for 4 aircraft while still carrying its cargo as Merchant Aircraft Carrier (not the same as the Escort Carriers) for convoy defense. <br>This is an incomplete list of what a maritime empire can do when it has to reach out and use alternative sources of ships.

  Love the newer long videos. Took me a week to finish the 9 hours one but it was so worth it.

  @ <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_2SmoOMU9I&amp;t=4460">1:14:20</a> that sphere shape (especially the crash survivability) is why the Hughes 500 helicopter is almost a sphere with a rotor on top &amp; a tail boom at the back.

  The ISD pulled their weight after the DS II but, there were no supply lines then.
