more like pre-palpatine republic vs empire.

A big theme of the Prequel Series (and a reason for its insurgent popularity) stems from the strong anti-war themes.

The Old Republic became the Empire as it was consumed by the mass militarization of its greedy, self-righteous, and power hungry elites.

The Jedi fell into Palpatine's trap when they surrounded themselves with Space Cops, foolishly believing endless escalation made them safer.

yet you seem to forget that the entire clone war era was a government that had become largely pacifist and demilitarized suddenly needing to deal with racist space turbocapitalists, leaving them scrambling and reliant on Palatine's indoctrinated space cops to stop the literal corpratist takeover of the galaxy
