The Strongest of This List

Oh, I'm not arguing that Palpatine is the strongest and most powerful Sith. I am simply saying that more sources cite him as the strongest than any other being. That is a fact. More sources label him as the strongest than Ragnos, Kun, Sadow, or Revan.

Ragnos is cited as being "the most powerful of the most powerful" in the TOTJ comic book. That can be inferred that he is the strongest, and it can be supported by the fact that SuperSith such as Naga Sadow feared him. However, on the other hand, it could be that Ragnos was the most powerful of the most powerful of that time. The quote does not specify, whereas Sidious has been labeled "strongest of all time".

Emphasis on all time.

Granted, there are numerous inconsistencies which prevent me from agreeing completely. But if the arguement were decided by sources, then Sidious would indeed be the strongest. It is possible that he is. Just not guarenteed.

I came to this thread to disprove Janus's statements. I think I did a good job doing it, but I didn't mean to argue that Sidious is the strongest Sith of all time.

I know you didn't, but well if the claim is correct then he might just be anyways.

btw: On the Ragnos thing, yes he's the most poweful of the most powerful, but not just that, he's also lived in the golden age of the Sith. Golden age ussually means the richest age the age when they were most powerful. so he lived at the peak of the Sith Empire and was the strongest of the strongest then. Thats why we think he's the most powerful

I know you're not arguing just felt like explaining it anyway.

I know.

However, the Sith were at their wealthiest during this time . . . and the 'golden age' is also vague. It could mean when they were at their highest level of population.

Unlikely, if you look at world history, every country its golden age is when it is at its most powerful.

Italy's for instance during the height of the Roman Empire, Egypt during the rule of the greatest Pharaoh's, England's, France, Hollands, Spain's, Portugal's golden ages all lived during the golden age of Europe when colonies were plenty and money was even more so.

It refers to how great a country was at that time, and a country's its golden age is its greatest period in time. For an Empire like the Sith empire that would logically be the same. At least that is ussually the implied thing with golden age, sometimes its different but then its almost always stated "golden age of art" for instance, which was during the golden age of Europe by the way.

So with a normal golden age that isn't expanded upon with specifics we can assume that is indeed the golden age of the empire and that it is at the height of its power at that particulair point in time.

True, considering China and the Han Dynasty, was pretty much where they were techonologically more advanced than its neighbours as well, it was when they were wealthy and they produced the strongest generals that literally wiped out the Hun's to the North...

The Jedi Golden age is however different, it refers to a peaceful era, where the guardians of peace are numerous and evil is scattered, whereas the Sith's Golden Age, is when they produce their Strongest, ie Ragnos.
