The Empire was weak. They had the fire power but not the guts. The flaw lies in the Sith.
Darth Vader should have sensed Luke''s presence on Tatouine and blasted the planet with the Death Star - end of Jedi, no more rebellion. The Emperor was too concerned with his visions coming true to see the real threat. People with his kind of arrogance fall down sooner or later and he got his. If you are going to rule by force (no pun intended) you have to be ruthless.
Here are today''s lessons for dictators:-
1) Do unto others as they would do unto you - only do it first.
2) An enemy is still an enemy, even if it has surrendered.
3) Eliminte anyone who gets in your way before they become a threat.
4) Resistance is futile...(Ooops, wrong universe...)
5) If you''re going to be a bear, be a grizzly.
