One thing that was big is that people talked about the Tarkin Doctrine, that fear was the best way to keep the systems in line. But the whole speech also talked about the inequality of the outer rim worlds vs inner rim worlds. That during the republic, the inner worlds basically didn't care about the outer rim as long as money and resources came in. So the outer rim was controlled by Crime Lords and even though the Republic talked about abolishing slavery, it was huge in the outer rim. The Empire attempted to address this by forming sectors under a military government to get rid of corruption, and also things like piracy and crime. Then when the Empire collapsed the Outer rim went back to its pre empire days, Crime Lords took over, Slavery and piracy went through the roof.
The inner rim worlds never suffered from a lack of schools and hospitals and infrastructure though, they were rich.
