Sphere of Sith Philosophy


The Sphere of Sith Philosophy, alternatively known as the Ministry of Sith Philosophy or the Pyramid of Sith Philosophy, functioned as one of the twelve Spheres of Influence within the reconstituted Sith Empire. Its primary function involved ensuring adherence to the Sith code among both the members of the Sith Order and the inhabitants of the Sith Empire. Individuals displaying any inclination towards the light side were systematically hunted down and eliminated, irrespective of their inherent Force-sensitivity. This persecution extended to those who sought to propagate alternative philosophical or theological viewpoints that directly opposed or challenged the legitimacy of the Sith ideology. Furthermore, this Sphere bore the responsibility of disseminating anti-Jedi sentiment and prescribing the "correct" methodology for practicing the Sith code. During the period of the Cold War with the Republic, Darth Aruk—the Dark Councilor who held authority over this Sphere—undertook efforts to eradicate the Revanites due to their propagation of their doctrines throughout the Empire.

Following the Empire's defeat at the hands of the Eternal Empire, this particular sphere underwent a consolidation process, merging with both the Sphere of Ancient Knowledge and the Sphere of Mysteries to form what became known as the Sphere of Sith Doctrine.
