You see, "They one the battle. Not the war."

Palpatine's dead.

He probably has commanders on every single planet when he's not there and armies of thousands. Those commanders are reckless, so they will most likely take his place.

Vader's dead.

Vader ruled the Imperial Fleet, but people like Admiral Piett (yes he did, but people like him) would probably take his place and rule the Imperial Fleet.

These "new" rulers might battle each other for a while, as they did in the original Expanded Universe. But soon enough, their might be someone who could form them together, sew it back up.

That person is Snoke.

For more power, Snoke knows he needs more Force-beings (even if he is one himself) so he gets Kylo Ren to turn over to him, and then Kylo Ren to turn more Jedi over. If they don't, he kills them.

The New Republic's like "nah, they'll just fight each other", not realizing that it's any scattered Imperial Remnants - it's a new Empire. The First Order. Leia disagrees, tells them they must fight before they are defeated.

The New Republic is reluctant. But they do finally agree to do one thing: fund the Resistance. So the Resistance is creating to combat the First Order, and the wars continue, once again.

Anything I missed?
