You know who Palpatine and the Empire can be compared to quite easily from history? And who, in fact, George Lucas has said was part of his inspiration for them?Hitler and the Third Reich. Especially with Palpatine's rise to power in the prequels. And that's who you think are the real good guys???
But the Galactic Empire did not commit genocide. The Galactic Empire is more comparable with benevolent Empires such as the Roman Empire.

Not the only one, either, they blew up another one first as a "test run" if you consider the book "Death Star" to be canon.
