"You had allies in power."

And that was the difference, wasn't it? A good ruler would listen to their subjects. Take heed of their concerns, their worries, their fears. Use their power to make things better.

The Emperor was not a good ruler. Neither were any of the other Imperials or people in power. They didn't listen to the people below them; only their own selfish wants and desires.

And power could not be taken from people unwilling to share it without the use of force.
