Conspiracy is a 2002 fan film written by Brian Tomaselli and Cliff Zody, and directed by Scott Schlosser. It takes place 10 years before the Battle of Yavin (between Episodes III and IV), and ten of the Emperor's highest and most influential officials were ordered from their commands and ministries to meet in Coruscant, and the meeting that was held that day would change the galaxy forever.

Opening narration

It was ten years before the Battle of Yavin. Chancellor Palpatine was now in complete control of over what was the Old Republic. It was now the Galactic Empire, and the Chancellor had declared himself Emperor of all. The galaxy was his to do with as he sought it, or so he thought. It was well known how the Emperor felt about the thousands of species of intelligent life that inhabited his galaxy. Humans were perfection. All others were not. The Rebellion against this new Empire was gaining more and more support in the Galactic Senate. But while the Senate's powers dwindle day by day, the Rebellion's numbers were increasing. Entire worlds began to protest the actions of the Emperor. For the first time, the Emperor's dream of a perfect empire that would last a thousand years was in doubt. Ten of his highest and most influential officials were ordered from their commands and ministries to meet in secret on Coruscant. The meeting that was held that day would change the galaxy forever.
