The Imperial Navy was the space warfare branch of the Imperial Military of the Galactic Empire. At its peak, it fielded millions of warships, logistics vessels and fighters, becoming one of the largest navies in galactic history and maintaining Imperial control throughout the galaxy.The Imperial Navy was formed from the Republic Navy of the Galactic Republic in 19 BBY, as part of the newly-proclaimed Emperor Palpatine's Imperialization campaign during the rise of the Empire.A reorganized command structure, eventually consisting of twelve Grand Admirals, supervised the rapid expansion of the fleet that had begun during the Clone Wars. Growing discontent with the New Order eventually coalesced into the Alliance to Restore the Republic, which began a military campaign against Imperial forces, that became known as the Galactic Civil War.Supreme Commander Vader was charged by Emperor Palpatine with overseeing the Imperial Navy's efforts in stomping the insurrection and hunting the Rebel fleet. | ||
