The New Republic and The Empire are both stable states, while the Resistance and the First Order fight a hidden war.Snoke is leading the First order, but is clearly a mysterious figure whose background is still unknown
If Disney is gonna pull the Sheev-trick again then I honestly think I could write some new Star Wars scenarios as well

Force ghosts have long been canon, and for continuities sake, there's no better pottery than having Palpatine be the main villain of all 9 films.

Everyone can, OP. Just read up on EU.

I was more hinting hinting at the whole 'Snoke is pullings the strings of all the main factions behind the scenes', just as Sheev did
>>64309407
Is that from the books or you're just theorizing?

That's pretty much the standard op procedure for Sith
No I thought it was just the First Order and that the Empire is gone. The opening crawl said the First Order came out of the ashes of the Empire, implying that the Empire is gone and the First Order is all that is left.
The Resistance and the Republic are separate and are analogous to the Vietcong and North Vietnam. One is the state, the other is a rebel group in hostile territory.

Sith can't become Force Ghosts though in the New Canon. They don't believe in life after death and thus are more concerned about extending their lifespan and hoarding as much power as possible.

The new book says that both Empire and Republic exist. The First Order is a group of former Empire officers 'gone extreme'. Both The Republic and the Empire don't want to go to war with them, so Leia says 'fuck the republic' and organises The Resistance' to fight an undergorund war with the First order

How can they not? Most of them trained under jedi who have actually seen them.

Didn't that other guy confirm that Snoke's plan is to literally kill everyone so he can have all the force in the galaxy, become omnipotent?

So we are watching The One in space.
