| Aug 2, 2016 at 14:46 | comment | added | PoloHoleSet | The "only two" rule makes perfect sense to me. They are evil, they are ruthless, they are powerful. Any Sith is going to want to be THE Sith, and will have no problem betraying and killing others to get there. Having a big pool just means a mess of people trying to kill each other off, and that many more back-stabbers to keep an eye on. If anyone has every played D&D with an entire team of evil characters, they generally don't make it to the first room of the dungeon before the group is in tatters and the survivors are damaged, easy prey for what was waiting for them below. | |

| Mar 21, 2015 at 6:08 | comment | added | user31178 | The ways of the Sith are an ideology that can't be stamped out just by destroying the current adherents. Eventually, new Sith will arise. | |

| Mar 20, 2015 at 18:19 | comment | added | Malcolm | @MooingDuck I actually don't see any evidence at least based on films only that there can not be more than two siths in the galaxy at the same time. I think you are completely right, and I would even leave this comment as an answer. People are just needlessly complicating things, in my opinion. | |

| Mar 20, 2015 at 0:30 | comment | added | Mooing Duck | I always assumed the two-sith thing meant two togeather. When the student became strong enough, he would become his own master and both of them would split ways and pick up their own students. Then there would always "be two, a master and a student", but there would be many such pairs. Never occurred to me there might actually be only two. Boy was I wrong. | |

| Mar 19, 2015 at 20:07 | comment | added | Darth Egregious | I suspect that the two thing was added in to the story when the prequels were written. They are objectively terrible and horribly written, so it doesn't have to make sense. It's probably just stupid, like everything else in the prequels. | |

| Mar 19, 2015 at 16:04 | comment | added | Holger | @b_jonas: Are you sure? During episode I-III, Darth Sidious had no problems finding replacements. | |
| Mar 19, 2015 at 14:53 | comment | added | b_jonas | @Racheet: When the president is killed, a new one is elected very quickly. Sith aren't replaced just like that. | |

| Mar 19, 2015 at 14:25 | comment | added | Racheet | There's only one president of the united states, and they're not even a space ninja. Why aren't they easily defeated? | |
| Mar 19, 2015 at 13:09 | comment | added | LepelLeLama | The same reason a small recon team is used for spec ops instead of the whole military, small numbers fly under the radar waaay easier. | |
