Perhaps this is where a portion of personal and galactic history intertwine.
I did not believe the Empire was ever a force for justice. But I know that there are worse threats, even now encroaching on parts of our galaxy, that either the Old or the New Republic had no hope of defeating.
When faced with two evils, one significantly worse than the other, I chose to ally myself with the lesser evil. At the very least, the Empire is far quicker when dealing with threats and its heavy-handed methods, while overkill, certainly get the point across.
And understand that I had no intention of joining the Empire when I first arrived. Being told I was to be made a Lieutenant was not in my plan when entering Imperial space.
