I played hundreds of hours of this game when I was younger, absolutely ignoring the whole Empire aspect of the game, partly because I just liked the fighting stages, partly because the game was in English and I didn't even speak it at the time, so I had no idea what was going on at all. I've revisited it multiple times as an English speaking adult and it's even better now that I can actually play the whole thing! A classic.
