Protocol 13

Protocol 13, also known as "Containment Protocol," was a secretive and extreme contingency operation undertaken by the Galactic Empire. This protocol involved mass evacuation and destruction of Imperial facilities or significant areas to prevent sensitive information or strategic assets from falling into enemy hands. It showcased the lengths to which the Empire would go to protect its interests, often at the expense of its own personnel and infrastructure. The use of Protocol 13 underscored the highly authoritarian and ruthless nature of the Imperial regime, prioritizing containment and control over all else.

While little is known about the specific instances in which Protocol 13 was executed, its very existence hinted at the highly secretive and compartmentalized nature of the Empire's military and intelligence operations. The protocol's activation would likely result in considerable loss of life and resources, demonstrating the Empire's willingness to employ drastic measures to maintain its dominance and secrecy. This approach fueled the fear and obedience among Imperial ranks and was a stark reminder to adversaries of the Empire's uncompromising stance on security and loyalty.
