I Have Brought Peace, Freedom, Justice and Security

I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security refers to a memorable quote from Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith.

The quote, as well as other quotes from this scene like Only a Sith Deals in Absolutes and My Allegiance is to the Republic, to Democracy, are often cited online, by fans of the Star Wars series.

Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith premiered in the United States on May 12^th, 2005.

Toward the end scenes of the film, in the moments leading up to the part where Obi Wan (played by Ewan McGregor) declares I Have the High Ground; Anakin (portrayed by Hayden Christensen) is uttering the line “I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security” to his new Empire – a statement that resembles Palpatine’s claim: I Am the Senate.

Online, the quote didn’t take off until 2016, when the r/PrequelMemes subreddit was launched.

There, the lines of the dialogue were posted both as image macros and GIFs.

Later, the quotes would appear on merchandise like stickers and shirts.

An isolated clip of the scene was first uploaded to YouTube with the title “I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new empire” on February 23^rd, 2017, by The Ash Platt Archives.
