Topic: Sector Admiral


  
  High Admiral - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki
High Admiral was the title born by the commander of Navy forces within an Imperial Sector Group.
Along with the Army title of Surface Marshal, this title was typically borne by the Moff or Grand Moff, though in some Sectors, it was delegated to a senior subordinate.
A number of fanon sources - some perhaps unaware of the implicit connection between the roles of High Admiral and Sector governor - have identified High Admiral and Moffs as distinct ranks, separate within the hierarchy, and have suggested alternative rank insignia for the position of High Admiral.

The uprisings in those sectors against the ever-increasing exactions, and the repression that had followed, had left a legacy of bitterness that would, Roderick was certain, do the Empire a kind of long-term harm that military defeats could not.
The admiral was death on any hint of nepotism and determined to lead by example.

 Sectors and Sector Dukes
How one becomes sector duke, we do not know: it can't be hereditary, as there is no noble title to inherit (similarly, there can be no feudal obligations, owing or owed, associated with the position).
The sector duke, once designated, holds seniority among his fellow dukes by virtue of his position in the Imperial bureaucracy, which gives him the authority to issue the "broad guidelines" mentioned above: "Precedence is accorded strictly on the basis of government position, with seniority by date of patent following." Ibid., p.
I suggest that this specifically requires the sector duke to obtain the consent of the subsector dukes before imperializing their subsector forces in a crisis.
