| The Imperial Senate has no power to make any real decisions. It may provide opinions on certain matters or its own ideas for bills, but they still need to be reviewed and approved by the Emperor himself. Also, members of the Imperial Senate are Dark Jedi, members of House Scholae Palatinae, only. Each planet in the Imperial Dominion has so called Senator, but they are only liaisons between the high level administration and the average citizens of the Empire. | | The Imperial Senate has no power to make any real decisions.
