As a quick run down we have:
Victory-class: Clone Wars era line destroyer, 900 metres long, weighted towards ship-to-ship combat but with decent fighter a troop contingents.
Venator-class: Clone wars era line cruiser, 1137 metres long but about the same volume as the Vic, and the same power output. Heavily weighted towards the starfighter carrier role.
Imperator/Imperial-class: The standard Imperial line cruiser, 1600 metre long counterinsurgency platform, with an excellent balance of firepower, fighters and group troops. The definitive symbol of the Galactic Empire.
Tector-class: Imperial fleet cruiser, 1600 metres long, based on the Imperator hull, but much more heavily armoured, and orientated towards ship-to-ship combat.
Allegiance-type: About 3000 metres long, fits into the gap between heavy destroyers and proper Star Cruisers. Like the Tector it's orientated towards ship-to-ship combat.
That's just a quick run down of the smaller ships. As you can see, they run from the small (by Imperial standards) Victory up to the light cruiser/flotilla leader Allegiance, and from designs optimised for ship-to-ship combat, to almost pure starfighter-carriers.

Corrected for you since you still can't get it right.

A Star Frigate would be a powerful destroyer, a Star Destroyer being a powerful Cruiser, a Star Cruiser being a battleship type thing and a Star Dreadnaught being "holy mother of god that thing's the size of a moon and just tore a fleet apart" sized.
