It all brews down to what you define as an "Empire". If an Empire requires an Emperor, then the Galactice Empire or possibly the Infinite Empire was the first true Empire. If not, then the GE was not the first Empire.
It's vaulable in the world of wiping Donald Trump's ass.
OF course, with North's extensive knowledge and deep reasoning of all that is designed for a King of the Hill episode, Trump would promote him to personal Jackoff.

"Once more the Sith shall rule the galaxy."--Palpatine.
That doesn't mean it was Empire. The Infinite Empire we don't if it had an Emperor or not. The Ancient Sith Empire had no Emperor but it's ruler still had an impressive title. The Galactic Empire had an Emperor, but that doesn't mean it was the first Empire to exist, and only the second to rule the main sections of the galaxy.
The Rakata did that as well, it can be called a galactic empire 'cause it ruled throughout a galaxy. But Palpatine's empire was actually CALLED the Galactic Empire. That was its TITLE.

ok, honestly Ushgarak made this so amazingly clear...
GL says in the movies 2 things
1) The Sith once Ruled the galaxy
2) That the empire was 'the first galactic empire'
thats all there is too it...
EU is official? errr..ok, but its not canonically right.....so EU material isnt good enough to be used in this forum. I'm not going to explain it, its all stated here: http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f38/t20461.html
read it, its very very simple
thats what it is, so live with it.
Palps empire WAS the first because thats what he said...lol
this isnt even open for argument, the sith once "ruled" the galaxy, but that in no way means an empire. the Sith probably did not rule with governmental authority like palpatines empire did. thats speculation but either way palpatines empire was the first, case closed.
go argue in the EU forums, because arguments that involve EU dont hold water around here, sorry buddy...

Tangible, i wont lower myself to your allycat ways because if i do you'll turn chick and report me and get me banned as you did before, ya snitch.
Like i said, women like yourself, insult due to a low vocabulary/income/class and victim mentality. And i always thought to severly insult someone over the net that you don't know was always coward-like. It's like talking behinds someone back or insulting from far away, hidden.
If i said the insults you said, i be banned permanently, no matter.
anyhow, Tangible stay the F out if you don't like the thread, simple as that, but i bet you'll report me now for saying "F", eh? lol go ahead....i've been banned before. Im ready.
If no one but me cares are your on it, why the hell are you responding to it. C'mon.
I'm ready, dude...go tell.

Dude seriously, it's obvious you aren't going to win this argument. Go try your case at MF.com. I'm sure they'd be happy to see it "your" way.
You can't expect to come in here and win a case based on the EU when this is primarily a canonical forum. It's not going to happen. And saying people that don't agree with you are below you only goes to show how little class you actually have. Next time you decide to insult someone by saying make sure its not people that have a degree, and actual lives, because it makes you look, well, just stupid and insipid.

If you can't do that you're, in your witty word, stupid.

You cant have an intellectual discussion when one of the parties (you) lacks the intellect to have said conversation. And why ARE you replying? Odd that is, for someone who says they arent emotionally invested in this conversation.
And just in case the lawn remark went over your head.....means you sound like a type of male who expects his women to be barefoot and pg.

1. lol, you're the one using ad hominem attacks on me instead or rational ones. Ad hominem attacks on one's opponent are a tried-and-true strategy for people who have a case that is weak.
2. Im replying simply because you telling me something, directed at me.
whether it's direct or indirect. There are no emotions. In fact, in a way, you're asking me to reply by speaking of and to me.
3. And i dont expect women to be barefoot and.....i cant believe this...lol this is crazy. this is Star Wars, not frikken Oprah...lmao

Lets examine the quality of the threads you've started in your short KMC career.
Was the "First Galactic Empire" truly the first galactic empire in the SW universe?
you got your answer and then whined like a baby when it wasnt the one you wanted.
Does Palpatine lie in ep.3? If so, what lie did he tell?
did you even watch the movie? I mean seriously, my 12 year old managed to figure this out.
In Ep3, when Sidious says.........
erm what?
Which was a better movie: The Empire Strikes Back or Revenge of the Sith?
wouldnt be a bad Q had it not been asked 30 times already
In Ep. 3, when Palpatine says.....
what AGAIN?
Based on the above material, it's rather obvious that you have no clue what you are talking about now do you? So I will leave you with this, I've enjoyed this little banter but unfortunately you have started to sound very much like when the teacher talks on the Charlie Brown tv specials. bwoa bwoa bwoa........and it's lost its allure.
Have fun out there.

That's pretty dumb. That's not MY opinion, it's George Lucas'. Against which yours doesn't matter one tiny whit. That Palps' was first is not opinion, it is fact.
Now, our policy about EU is clearly posted for you. If you don't like it... tough. But it is our policy, and you have no business joining this place and then criticising us for it.
Get over this, FOTN. According to the films, you are wrong. Live with it. If you continue these whiny rants of yours just because you have been caught out as you have been, you will get a warning.
Your attempt to say I am lying is just so spectacularly untrue, as everyone can see, as to be almost hysterical. It's just something you have randomly said without any rationality or logic whatsoever. As I say, everyone else can clearly see where you contradictd yourself as you backpedalled away. Your posts will remain there forever, for everyone to read and see it. You can't just undo that.
Contribute usefully to a thread or do not contribute at all, please.
This question has been answered, and FOTN's attitude has simply made the thread sink into pointlessness. Closed.
