- "Much has happened in the months since the Battle of Exegol. We have begun the long and difficult process of rebuilding the galaxy following the destruction wrought by the recent First Order–Resistance War. In the aftermath I have been tasked with leading the excavation of the Sith temple on Exegol. However, while this has taken a great deal of my focus and time, it has not been my only consideration. This study has been made freely available across the holonet in the hope that it finds an audience willing to read it and take on board the message within it."

The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire was a history book written by Beaumont Kin after the Battle of Exegol, that detailed the history of the Galactic Empire.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
- "This in-universe history book provides deep new examinations, investigations, and analysis of the Galactic Empire. I cannot think of a better historian to take this on than Beaumont Kin. He has a lot that he wants everyone to know. It will not all be easy reading."
- ―Chris Kempshall
The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire serves as the in-universe text for Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, a reference book written by Chris Kempshall.[1] The book was inspired by The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, a real-world history book by William L. Shirer.[4]

- ↑ Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire states that thirty years have passed since the end of the Galactic Civil War and months have passed since the Battle of Exegol. As Star Wars: Timelines dates the end of the war to 5 ABY and the Battle of Exegol to 35 ABY, the in-universe The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire must have been published in 35 ABY.
