![]() ![]() ![]() As a result, Allegiant General Enric Pryde, the highest member of the Supreme Council, pledged his loyalty to Sidious as acting leader of the First Order. Despite Ren's ambition to rule the galaxy as the new Emperor and Dark Lord of the Sith, he was ultimately turned back to the light side of the Force, leaving the First Order without a Supreme Leader. In 35 ABY, Ren forged an alliance with Sidious who offered the Supreme Leader an armada of Xyston-class Star Destroyers. Neither Snoke nor Ren designated a planet as their capital Snoke had chosen to rule the First Order from his flagship, the Mega-class Star Dreadnought Supremacy, while his successor did so as well from the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast. In 34 ABY, Snoke was assassinated by his apprentice, Kylo Ren, who was the grandson of the Sith Lord Darth Vader. He was also content to allow officers, such as General Armitage Hux, to lead the First Order's forces while he focused on spiritual matters of the Force. Although Snoke possessed ultimate authority in the First Order, he favored the title of Supreme Leader instead of Emperor. In addition, Sidious had created Snoke-an artifical strandcast who was strong with the dark side of the Force-to serve as his proxy while he recuperated on Exegol following his first death. The First Order was an offshoot of the Contingency, a secret plan devised by Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious to destroy the Galactic Empire and allow a select number of "worthy" officers and personnel to start again on the edge of the galaxy. In addition, the First Order utilized propaganda to promote unconditional loyalty to the Supreme Leader, particularly in the case of next-gen stormtroopers who were conscripted at birth to become soldiers of the First Order and its rulers. Invested with absolute power, these self-appointed rulers controlled every aspect in the First Order, but could also delegate authority to officers in the military. Supreme Leader was the head of state of the First Order. " Long live the Supreme Leader." ―Kylo Ren and Armitage Hux ![]()
