Poggle the Lesser

Poggle the Lesser is a character in the Star Wars film series.

He is the Archduke who ruled the Geonosians at the time of the Clone Wars. He took command of Stalgasin, the main hive of the planet Geonosis after defeating the previous archduke, Haddis the Vaulted, a few years before the battle of Naboo, which he had executed and then made a staff made from the bones of his opponent..

During Geonosis's arena execution, Poggle felt uncomfortable after Nute Gunray's constant criticism. Besides that he never got along with the viceroy, just like San Hill.

In addition to being an associate and close friend of San Hill, the two of them planned and arranged for the creation of a droid to be the Supreme Commander of the Separatist armies: General Grievous, who was a Kaleesh before he became a cyborg.

Archduke Poggle the Lesser coordinated the construction of massive armies of B1 battle droids and B2 super battle droids along with Nute Gunray and the Trade Federation, which he had to put up with. He lent his planet and its people to the establishment of a Confederate base and thus watched hundreds of thousands of his citizens die.

He dies on Mustafar along with his aides, at the hands of Darth Vader, who slices him in two.
