During the war, the situation was controlled by the Sith's clever manipulation.
The harder the Jedi and the clone army fought, the more bogged down they became.
Military expenses continued to expand, and the Republic quickly became a de facto military state.
It is believed that most of the war expenses the Republic spent were wasted.
This is because they placed importance on the quantity of troops in order to end the war.
For example, every time they discovered a CIS such as Grievous, they sent several divisions from Coruscant.
Since most of the information was false, it resulted in unnecessary operational costs.
The source of the war expenses was the Republic's citizens, so the Jedi were criticized.
The Republic was also financially exhausted.
The Jedi were amateurs in military affairs and made mistakes in the early stages of the war.
They had no idea of reducing war expenses. They thought they could raise them infinitely if they asked Palpatine. Meanwhile, the people were angry. Although they had pledged to fight a short battle, it backfired.
The background to this is thought to be the interference of the Senate, which actually wanted it to be long-term.
It's fine if the Jedi are military amateurs, as long as the war continues.
Grand Admiral Thrawn is one of the few Imperial personnel to examine the Clone Wars.
It is believed that he was able to calculate how much cost the Republic would have saved if it had fought efficiently.
In other words, the Empire was built on an inefficient wartime system during the war.
He argues that it is impossible to continue the wartime system after the war.
If Thrawn had taken the lead in command during the war instead of the Jedi, the Republic would have been able to fight efficiently.
The use of financial resources that began during the war is believed to have been invested in national management in addition to military expenses.
Thrawn argued that investment should be centered on military strategy.
The Grand Admiral wanted to avoid political squabbles, factional disputes, and power struggles.
An inefficient system will eventually weaken and become exhausted.
The Clone Wars have been recorded in history as a victory for the Republic, but the Sith's control of the situation
was a breeding ground for inefficient fighting.
After the purge of Order 66, public discontent subsided, but the real cause was the Sith Emperor.
