Can there really only be 2 Sith in the entire Galaxy?

This will explain it in detail. I believe the rule of 2 started with Darth Bane, but other Sith did not hold his belief.

Rasins:
Regarding the Sith then .... how do their numbers expand? If Vader had survived and Palpatine too, would Vader eventually become a "Master" Sith and sought out his own apprentice, and Palpatine getting another?
raidem:
Vader would only become Master if he killed Palpatine. Palpatine killed his Master thereby becoming the leader/Master. Palpatine knew Vader at some point would try to kill him, that is the Sith way.
So, Vader got his promotion, switched to the lightside, and died nearly all at the same time :).

Actually the way Lucas had it originally, Vader was evil. He was not going to go light side at the end. It was Vader vs Palpatine for Luke's loyalty. So you could say that they both planned on killing the other, once they had Luke on their side.

The idea is that the fewer Sith there are, the more power they have access to. In theory if you have a lot of Sith, there is less power to draw upon. The rule of 2 is just that, a rule. It's not an iron clad law. For example Palpatine had Darth Maul, and Count Dooku, breaking the rule of 2.
