How Did Darth Bane Destroy The Sith And Create The Rule Of Two? | Star Wars Lore Explained #shorts

How was the Sith rule of two created?

By the time of the galactic empire, the Sith Order had a long tradition of only having two members. As most of you will already know, this was certainly not always the case. So how exactly did the rule of two traditions come to be and how was its founder, Darth Bane able to destroy the Sith entirely?

Around a thousand years before the clone wars, the sith were weak. Unlike the sith of the time of Vitiate and Darth Revan, they were no longer ruled by the strong. Many weaker sith often teamed up to overthrow the most powerful Sith lords, leading to a gradual but persistent diminishing of the Siths power. Darth Bane was disgusted by this, seeking to destroy the brotherhood of the darkness that ruled the order and instigate the rule of two. He did this in a devious but powerful way, in line with his own philosophy. During a battle between the sith and the Jedi, Bane duped the brotherhood of darkness into creating a thought bomb. The thought bomb required all of the sith to partake in a ritual that would eventually consume all force sensitivities across the planet. However, the Sith were unaware of this, believing this would only kill the Jedi. The thought bomb exploded, wiping out all of the Sith while also wiping out many Jedi. After this, Bane and his apprentice, Darth Zannah, were the last Sith, allowing for the creation of the rule of two, the Sith tradition which eventually culminated in the destruction of both the Jedi and the Republic. While Banes rule of two sith tradition was very successful, it did have some major faults which eventually led to its downfall, as we discussed in this video.

Dooku "we will be unstoppable with anakin on our side". Palpatine " you know the rules and so do i"

Ok sorry, but seeing Dave Baubtista (Drax actor) as Darth Bane made me die of laughter... only because of the fact that he remained undetected in Jedi Temple for such a long time just by his skill

The thought bomb is also a pretty terrifying piece of amazing tech. Forever trapping it's victims in endless mental torment and pain.

Darth Bane is my absolute favorite sith, because he stayed true to the order, he was a visionary and a self made man, that wasnt good but was commited, you got to respect that.

Imagine there being only two Sith in the galaxy. The apprentice finally becomes more powerful than his master, kills him, and takes over - only to die of a heart attack soon after, before he can find his own apprentice. The Sith are wiped from the galaxy and no one even knows about it

Bane created the legacy and Palpatine fulfilled it. These two accomplished more than any of the previous orders did.

Darth Bane, by far my favourite Dark Lord of the Sith

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten so that who ever may believe in him may have eternal life. John 3:16 Jesus died for you so why don’t you live for him. Humble yourself and come before Him and call upon His name. Ask for forgiveness so that your sins may be washed away. This life is nuthin compared to life in heaven. Remember even demons believe in God. God bless :).
