Power vacuums after a fictional empire falls

A book recommendation becomes a state-building thought experiment about how successor powers govern a galaxy after the Goa'uld empire disappears.

Notes

The recommendation for Glenn Stewart's Peacekeepers of Sol books begins with a Stargate question: what happens after the Goa'uld are gone? The fall of a dominant empire does not automatically create order; it leaves power vacuums, governing choices, and unresolved problems across the former system. The fictional comparison asks what roles successor powers assume and how they structure authority in the aftermath. The passage is a compact lesson in post-imperial world-building rather than simply a reading list.
