[Palpatine] Supreme Chancellor, delegates of the senate, a tragedy has occurred... which started right here with the taxation of trade routes... and has now engulfed our entire planet... in the oppression of the Trade Federation.
Peakonsul, Senati saadikud, tragöödia on aset leidnud, mis sai alguse siitsamast, kaubateede maksustamisega ja on nüüd põhjustanud kogu planeedi langemise Kaubandusföderatsiooni rõhumise alla.
