The Cleons aren't even in the book!?? What the...
The original book spends almost no time with the old empire. Once the Foundation is established, the details of the empire’s fall are irrelevant to the story. In fact, the premise makes a point that the exact details of its fall don’t really matter.
Nah all the "downfall of the empire" stuff happens off screen.
Also the series is an anthology with each short story being hundreds or thousands of years apart.
