ok so he didnt get them all but

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Palpatine#Order_66 no sith has even come close to doing that.

 

Coming from an article on Wookieepedia sourcing a stub of a magazine. I'd hardly view that as canon.

 

Regardless, as was previously stated, even a ridiculous 99% success (or failure) rate leaves at least 100 Jedi kicking around. There are still plenty to account for. The galaxy is awfully big.

 

But you're right, no other Sith has come anywhere close to that level of annihilation.

These 100 Jedi would most likely feel hopeless. Their Order was just destroyed, the greatest among them lost. And then the now infamous Jedi killer Darth Vader arrives. The Ensuing Great Jedi Purge killed many of the last Jedi, but as we have seen, a few managed to escape. This is most likely due to Vader searching for the rebels. The Rebel Alliance was a greater threat to the Empire than a few rogue Jedi. For none of them could defeat Vader, and even if they did, Sidious would destroy or turn them. The Order's destruction was absolute. None of could defeat the pinnacle of the Rule of Two and the epitome of the Dark Side.

 

Nihilus and Sion came close, but they were defeated. Sidious on the other hand managed to destroy the Order and take control of the galaxy simultaneously.

If you haven't read Republic Command Order 66, you really should. You get a view on how the clone commandos and clones in general dealt with order 66.

 

Hell there was even an order that the Clone Commandos would remove PALPATINE from office if it ever showed he was doing Treason to the Republic.

 

Thing was, he simply got the Clones first.

 

What everybody fails to realize, PALPATINE SET UP THE CLONE WARS. He set all that up, just so he could have the perfect time to kill the jedi.

Yes, what Jedi did survive would not be able to regain control. They would be public enemy #1. Also, they no longer have any records, holocrons, etc. All there was to do was hide, really.

 

The funny thing is, Sidious kept the most dangerous one with him at all times. His overconfidence was his weakness.

He was very overconfident. But I understand why he was overconfident. Even if he was killed, he had those clone bodies to keep himself alive forever. If it weren't for Luke, he'd have been immortal.
