I love how all Galatic Empires MUST fall into barbarism...only to be replaced at some future time by a stronger, Second Empire.
I think I'll destroy the 3 Galaxies now...

I think the same could be said about Europe in the decades after WWII, or China and how much their communist society depends on personal connections and bribes. The info is general enough that it can conceivably be applied to any world government at one time or another. So it sounds a bit like the entire planet, to me...
