[Star Wars] Why do the Sith and the Empire do what they do? Evil? What’s their goal? Money? Ethnic cleansing? Is it just fun commanding fleets? Mad bitches?

first, why do the sith do what they do?
if it’s just because they’re evil, is their ultimate goal to do genocide?  if so against who?  only certain species?  


second, why do imperial soldiers do it?  money?  join the winning team so they and their families are safe?

Sith want power, knowledge and influence. All of it and nothing else. Everything comes back to them elevating themselves above all else. 

And if Palpatine is any indication on how the Sith behave once they've achieved these goals then they turn their Attention towards *retaining* power.
