Overview
In the Star Wars video games, there are two major entities that call themselves the Sith Empire. Also see Darth Sidious' Galactic Empire, a future empire which would also be headed by Sith, but is generally not considered to be a Sith Empire.
Darth Revan's Sith Empire
This Sith Empire existed from 3,959 BBY to 3,951 BBY and nearly defeated the Republic during the Jedi Civil War. It was formed by Darth Revan and his apprentice Darth Malak with Revan's secret intention of uniting the galaxy as one solidified power against what he feared to be the return of the Sith Emperor's own empire.
This is the Sith Empire in power during Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. A remnant of this empire, called the Sith Triumvirate, exists during Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords.
Vitiate's Sith Empire
Revan's fears eventually came to fruition and this Sith Empire rose to power in the galaxy 300 years after the fall of his empire. It fought against the Republic during the Great Galactic War, the Cold War, and the Second Great Galactic War. It was led by the Sith Emperor Vitiate.
