There's no such thing as loving too freely. Only mistakes made, in action.
The Empire stripped down the local government. Put a governor appointed by the Emperor and a garrison in place. Kicked people out of the homes and off their farms, and push them into shanty towns. Arrested my parents and a bunch of other people for speaking out, and kept them locked up for years and years.
Murdered people for nearly any excuse and called it punishment for treason. Mined out swaths of land, and burned forest, so much the damage could be seen from space. Blockaded it and cut it off from trade. Bombarded the capital city.
