I think the greatest achievement of the Clone Wars was that it darkened the republic and, for lack of a better term, "humbled" Palps plan.

InThe Prequels made it seem like Palp masterminded this insane plot and orchestrated every event. The Republic looked like an innocent victim wrapped up in a god-tier super conspiracy.

The Clone Wars showed that the Empire started before the Sith even got involved. That the Republic was already corrupt to the core and bordering on totalitarianism. Palps plan didn't create the rot, he just knew how to use it to his advantage.
