- The ascent of Emperor Palpatine, self-proclaimed Sitha'ri or the Sith chosen one, is a tale steeped in prophecy and dark destiny, resonating through the annals of both Jedi and Sith lore. The concept of the Sitha'ri, a figure destined to bring balance to the Sith and to reign supreme, had been a subject of speculation and anticipation for centuries. Approximately 900 years before Palpatine's birth, prophetic visions foretold his rise and the pivotal role he would play in the galaxy's fate, particularly in his eventual confrontation with the Skywalker siblings. Another key figures who foresaw Palpatine's emergence was Darth Tenebrous. Renowned for his prodigious intellect, Tenebrous peered into the future and saw the looming shadow of Palpatine, a presence that promised to bring an end to many established paradigms and cast the galaxy into darkness. He envisioned the rise of a "One Sith," a singular, all-powerful ruler who would not require a successor, destined to reign eternally.
Unlike figures such as Darth Vader, General Grievous, Count Dooku, or Darth Maul, Palpatine's turn to darkness cannot be attributed to a troubled or tragic past. His early life, marked by privilege and devoid of the hardships that often characterize the backgrounds of other Sith, paints a picture of a character whose descent into evil is not driven by external circumstances but by an intrinsic allure to the dark side.
This exploration delves into Palpatine's early life, shedding light on his initial encounters with the dark side and the chilling event that would solidify his commitment to the Sith creed: the murder of his entire family.
Born into the esteemed House Palpatine on the idyllic world of Naboo, the future Emperor, was the eldest offspring of Cosinga Palpatine and his wife. The ancestral home of the Palpatine family, named Convergence, was nestled in the serene environs of Naboo's Lake Country, a region renowned for its breathtaking landscapes. Sheev Palpatine's early life was shared with at least four siblings - two brothers and two sisters, in this historic and aristocratic setting.
House Palpatine, throughout its storied history on Naboo, was recognized for its conservative and isolationist stance, setting it apart from the more prominent and affluent Royal Houses of Naboo. This conservatism wasn't just a political posture but was deeply ingrained in the family's lineage and the planet's history. According to Cosinga, the family patriarch, House Palpatine was metaphorically described as one of the six impenetrable gates guarding Naboo against chaos, as per the planet's mythology.
His childhood in the Lake Country, within the walls of Convergence, was marked by the dual influences of his family's isolationist tendencies and their historical role as protectors of Naboo's order. Yet Palpatine's early years were marked by a profound sense of self-awareness and ambition, setting him apart from his family and peers on Naboo. From a tender age, he harbored a deep conviction about his destiny to lead, a belief that stemmed from an innate sense of power he felt within himself. This self-assuredness and sense of exceptionalism created an undercurrent of tension within the Palpatine household, particularly with his father, Cosinga.
Cosinga, recognizing something distinct and potentially unsettling in his eldest son, went to the extent of having young Palpatine tested to confirm their biological relationship. This act, borne out of a mix of doubt and perhaps fear, signified the growing rift between father and son, a rift that extended beyond familial bonds to encompass differing visions for their family's role in Naboo's political landscape.
Palpatine's intelligence and ambition drove him to envision a more prominent and proactive role for House Palpatine in the politics of Naboo. He saw potential for his family not only to increase their wealth and power but also to aid their homeworld in adapting to the evolving dynamics of the galaxy at large. However, his aspirations quickly collided with the reality of his family's isolationist stance. Palpatine came to believe that his father lacked both the vision and the capability to elevate their family's status. Cosinga’s conservative and isolationist ideology confined his political aspirations to the provincial arena of Naboo, showing no interest in expanding their influence beyond the planet's borders. This disdain extended to his mother as well, whom he resented for her passive acceptance of the family's stagnant status.

4:52 young Palpatine looks like Tom Hiddleston
What I was about to comment
Emphasis on bare hands and before his knowledge of the Force.
3:48 Palpatine looks like a redhead Tom Hiddleston for some weird reason
You should make more videos from Darth Plagueis.
Thanks for the superchat mate. I'll be sure to do some more Darth Plagueis stuff. Let me know if you've got any specific requests!
Maybe they need to do a series of movies or TV series about the history and rise of Palpatine.
What caused him to be so evil?
Vader's fortress, could you do a video about Dooku some day?
Yeah, that could be interesting.
Sure thing. Any ideas on what you'd like to know?
@@VadersFortress2pretty much anything. Maybe about a random event from a comic that doesn't have many implications in the greater story or it could be something relating to world building, like how the public viewed Count Dooku.
I've added a few ideas to the list!
All Palpatine dad had to say was i love u son let's go off planet together for a while, and star wars wouldn't had happened
Ngl a movie about young Palpatine with Tom Hiddleston would be lit
Do you think the Blade Of Bardotta ( Porter Engle ) could have defeated palpatine ? He was a legend of the jedi order during the high republic era, considered a legendary duelist on a higher level than even Yoda. He was feared by the nihil who considered him a demon with a lightsaber. The other jedi respected him extremely highly .

What can i say Im the best character in star wars
Yes you are, my master.
Ironic
Blow before your superior you sniveling worm.
Palpatine is the best mastermind of all time, he played everyone in the galaxy for decades and won Star Wars!!
@@GeoEmperor-until he didn’t
That it? Palpatine should really get better
I read the Plagueis novel once and then never again. It was good, I just don't like imagining Palpatine as being young. As far as I'm concerned he was a balding old man his entire life lol
Better character: Kreia or Sidious?
(Palpatine was the mask that Sidious wore, not the other way around)
