The Stormtroopers are the famous minions of the evil lord Darth Vader from the Star Wars series. George Lucas based the concept of these troops on Hitler’s elite guard of SS stormtroopers who were responsible for doing the German leaders evil doings. The stormtroopers were created on a small planet called Kamino. Based on the likeness of a famous bounty hunter, they were used as the Galactic Republics protection and combat force. They showed their true colors during the clone wars in which thousands of these units fought all over the galaxy against the droids of the Seperatist forces.
When the Chancellor of the Republic declared marshall law, the clones were instructed to terminate their Jedi masters. From this point on the clone troops were known as stormtroopers. They spread fear with their tall figure and large blasters. The clones had no moral or conscience. They were to do exactly what was told of them. They slaughtered thousands of enemies of the Galactic Empire. It was not until the rebel forces destroyed the Death Star that the emperor’s rule was ended and these troops were routed.
