The Greater Sith Empire, also known as the New Sith Empire, was a galactic government established during the Dark Order War in 15 ABY by the self-proclaimed Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Persia, in direct opposition to the New Republic and the New Jedi Order, controlling much of the Outer Rim during its reign. It was originally formed from the Dark Order of Korr, a faction of the Imperial Remnant, led by Dark Jedi Jaden Korr. After securing Jaden's demise on Bakura, Darth Persia took control of the Order with ease, having gained much influence and respect in the organization in the past. Ruled by the Sith and fueled by the resources, fleets, and armies of the Imperial Remnant, the Empire spread across the Outer Rim after its founding.
