A Darth is second only to the Emperor and are able to train as many apprentices as they see fit.
Darth was a Sith title given as both a name and title to the Sith Lords, an order of Force-sensitives who channeled their power through the dark side of the Force. The title, which roughly translated to "Dark Lord," was part of a Sith Lord's mantle, preceding a moniker that replaced the Sith Lord's original name.
Chosen from within the ranks of the Sith Lords, either by rite of combat or by the Dark Lord based on their unparalleled skill, they are the true elite of the Sith Order. Granted the title of Darth, they are given near complete dominion over different facets of the Sith Empire, answering only to the Dark Lord's will.
Originally Answered: What was Darth Vader's military rank within the Empire? ? Vader held the rank of Supreme Commander of the Imperial Forces. While Palpatine, as Emperor, had complete control of the military, Supreme Commanders oversaw the military directly, and were outranked only by Palpatine.
As Supreme Commander, Darth Vader was the ranking leader of the Imperial Military.
Now that he is Supreme Leader, Kylo Ren has created a cabinet of top First Order military leaders to carry out his orders. This is a change from Snoke's regime, in which most high-ranking officers knew little of the First Order's capabilities and goals.
Darth Vader beat the Emperor in the end, using one of his own tactics which he witnessed for the first time decades before, with Mace Windu. Darth Sidious was always stronger than Vader, which is why he ruled over him for almost 20 years and turned him into the Sith Lord he was.
After serving as a Jedi Knight for three years during the war, Anakin Skywalker advanced to the point in his training that he felt he deserved the rank of Jedi Master, though the Council did not agree.
When Anakin was appointed to the Jedi Council. by Chancellor Palpatine, he was denied the rank of master. He was very upset about this, given that he wanted the knowledge Masters. had access to in restricted Holocrons.
In the original trilogy, Palpatine is depicted as the Emperor of the Galactic Empire and the master of Darth Vader (Anakin Skywalker).
Darth Sidious, also known as the Emperor and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, is not just the evilest Sith in Star Wars (arguably in both canon and Legends) but the evilest villain overall, deemed so thanks to his irredeemable actions throughout the Skywalker saga and surrounding content.
Even though Kylo Ren uses a red lightsaber, harnesses the dark side of the Force, and wears a cape, he is not a Sith. Because of that, he can never hold the title of Darth. Instead, he was just a chaotic mess of the dark side (until he eventually found his way back to the light).
By the High Republic Era, Yoda was considered a great Jedi Master. He had also gained a seat on the Jedi High Council and the rank of Grand Master.
Sidious may have given Dooku the title of Darth Tyranus, but because the Jedi Order knew him as Count Dooku, greatly preferring to not indulge his role as a Sith, they continued to call him by that name.
Presumably Palpatine planned to have Anakin join him at that point and so told the clones not to kill him when he gave out Order 66.
Because Anakin marched on the temple with the 501st and everyone knew exactly who Anakin was - a Jedi General, technically targeted for execution by Order 66. Any other clone would've seen he had a lightsaber and that he could use the Force, so he'd be donezo.
Obi-Wan Kenobi became a general in the Army of the Republic as the Clone Wars continued, having many adventures with Anakin Skywalker. Chief among them was the return of Darth Maul, the Sith Lord who Obi-Wan cut in two on Naboo.
Master Yoda has risen above all others to claim the top spot as the most powerful Jedi of all time and the true chosen one according to IGN's audience. He won pretty handily as well, as he was victorious in 89,756 of his 95,243 battles and had a win percentage of 94.2%.
In the latter days of the Old Republic, Yoda served as Grand Master of the Jedi Council, conferring with legendary Jedi Masters like Mace Windu and Ki-Adi-Mundi on matters important to the Republic.
As such, Obi-Wan had the skills to defeat some of the strongest enemies in the Star Wars storyline. Kenobi first defeated Vader on Mustafar when Anakin had just fallen to the dark side of the Force. While Anakin had the upper hand the entire fight, Obi-Wan played defense until he could get the needed opening.
Yoda will most likely win in a fight against Darth Vader because he is more skilled with a lightsaber and has the experience and feats that allow him to trim whatever size and strength advantage Darth Vader has over him. In fact, Yoda nearly defeated Palpatine, something that Vader could never do.
Some time later, he faced the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Infil'a put up a fierce fight against Vader, almost killing him by throwing the already damaged Sith Lord off of a cliff. Despite severe damage to his suit, Vader survived the fall, and repaired himself with parts from Infil'a's droid, Arex.
