What are your reactions on this fascinating difference and which one do you prefer? Therefore I prefer the EU version, but I wanted to get the group's opinion.
On the other hand I don't really understand how the First Order can exist (no tax structure) and am not really a fan of the Empire vs.
Personally, I think the idea of having a peaceful Empire interact with the New Republic is awesome and the Imperial Remnant is one of my favorite parts of the EU. I find it fascinating that in one continuity the Empire eventually formed into a legitimate government that interacted peacefully with the galaxy and in another continuity the Empire seems to have become more evil and chaotic. In this sense they are basically a terrorist group instead of a legitimate government. In the new movies, the First Order seems to represent all of the "evil" parts of the Empire tyrannical leadership, a disregard for innocent life and planetary aggression. To me, the Imperial Remnant represents all the "good" parts of the Empire order, resilience, a centralized government and a strong military. They eventually mold themselves in the image of Gilad Pellaeon and become an oligarchical government located in the upper-west portion of the galaxy. In the EU, the Imperial Remnant eventually becomes a self-serving government after the Bastion Accords and ends its hostilities with the New Republic. An interesting comparison that I've been thinking about between the EU and Disney's continuity is the state of the Empire post-ROTJ.
