The TRIGGER Empire, also known as the T-Empire,[2] was a faction formed by remnants of the Imperial Army after the Battle of Exegol, during or after 35 ABY.[3] Like the First Galactic Empire[4] and First Order,[5] the T-Empire planned to one day rule the galaxy and sought to destroy the Republic alongside any resistant planets with the Gemini-class Star Destroyer, a starship superweapon that contained a hyper cannon that could destroy worlds. This Galactic Empire was ruled by the dark side twins Am and Karre,[1] Dark Lords[2] who were created and trained since birth. The Empire was supported by many T-Stormtroopers.[1] Members of the T-Empire remained loyal to[2] the deceased[6] Emperor Palpatine and their uniforms were similar to those used by the Galactic Empire and First Order.[2]
Behind the Scenes
The TRIGGER Empire first appeared in "THE TWINS," a short film written by Hiromi Wakabayashi, directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, and released as part of the first volume of the non-canon Star Wars: Visions series. The animated short, produced by Studio Trigger, was released on September 22, 2021. This empire was named after the studio that produced the short.[2]
