Trivia

  • The Sithal War is a parody of the American Civil War.
  • It ended 1000 years after the American Civil War.
  • It was a very lethal war, as pointed out by Hermes. This may have influenced the choice of the name of the sixth episode of Season 6, which is called "Lethal Inspection".
  • The spelling of "Sithal" was not canonically known until "Overclockwise" when Bender reads a book about the Sithal War.

Quotes

    Hermes: And the winner of the war is... Let me just cross-check my tabulation here... Factoring the corsages for the widows...
    Bender: Hurry up, you number crunching crumb nuncher. Everybody but me is dying of old age.
    Hermes: Okay... Ah! The winners, at a net cost of only 12 dollars per life cut tragically short... our Sith Overlords!
