Corulag / Legends Corulag ( pronounced / ' kʊɹalæg / ) was a populated terrestrial world located on the Perlemian Trade Route in the Corulus system in the Bormea sector , part of the Ringali Shell . It was the endpoint of the Corulag - Jatir Hyperroute . The planet boasted urban sprawls with the underdeveloped areas filled with bamboo forests . It was near the Ringali Nebula and shared the sun Corulus with Solag , Biolag , and Garulag . History . Originally a colony of Coruscant , Corulag was a Core World with a mostly Human population with a few Wookiees , Aqualish , Ithorians and Selkath as well . This planet was colonized when , under Rakata n domination , the Humans of Coruscant sent out sleeper ship s to colonize distant worlds . These sleeper ships ended up throughout the galaxy , in locations such as Corulag , Alderaan , in the Tion Cluster , Seoul 5 , Kuat , Alsakan , Argai , Axum , Anaxes , Atrisia , Metellos , and many others . The planet was an early member of the Galactic Republic , and was the site of a battle in the First Great Schism in which Jedi Danzigorro Potts slew his own Master , Jook - jook H ' broozin , who had joined the Legions of Lettow , though other Dark Jedi escaped , including Blendri and her Padawan . The planet was known for its swoop races . It was the headquarters of Aether Hypernautics , Danthe Artifice , Ltd . , Gowix Computers , Gwain Spices , Korden Outfitting and Surveying and the Mansom Corporation . Sienar Fleet Systems developed the TIE Advanced x7 at the Sienar Advanced Research Division on Corulag , the same facility from which Dash Rendar stole the " Outrider " s engines . It was also home to Coreguard Security Services , which provided security to other companies on the planet . Around 12 , 000 BBY , Haddius Korden , a successful merchant from Corulag , turned his family business into Korden Outfitting and Surveying , which supplied a wide variety of equipment to colonists headed for the farthest frontiers of the known galaxy . Near the end of the New Sith Wars , the world was captured by the Brotherhood of Darkness . In 900 BBY , five powerful families from Corulag called the Quintad left Corulag to the backwater planet of Eriadu where they turned the planet into the Coruscant of the Outer Rim . Before the Clone Wars , Chief Scientist Frexton of the Corulag Academy had kidnapped the Force adept Teela Panjarra to study the Force , so Mace Windu , Yoda , Vel Ardox , Noro Zak , Qui - Gon Jinn , Obi - Wan Kenobi , and Adi Gallia infiltrated the Academy in an attempt to rescue her . This was complicated by an attack of Bartokk assassins . Eventually , though , they were beaten and the child was rescued from the Academy ' s nursery . Corulag remained loyal to the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars , where it was represented by Senator Zafiel Snopps . Corulag , unlike other planets in the Bormea sector , was represented independently ; all others were represented at that time by Mon Mothma . After the Emperor took over , the planet ' s population was extremely loyal to Palpatine , and its behavior was pointed out as model Imperial behavior . The capital city of Curamelle was also home to the Corulag Academy , an Imperial military academy . It was also during this time that Corulag was home to numerous prisons which held enemies of the Galactic Empire . The House of Citizens was still officially in power , being the lineal descendant of the ancient governments of Corulag through the millennia , though Zafiel Snopps was the de facto ruler and dictator as Imperial governor of the world . Corulag boasted orbital research stations over its surface on which important work on the Death Star project was done . Rebel forces first confirmed the project ' s existence after a successful raid on these stations . Under the Empire , Corulag was extremely influential , but after the death of Emperor Palpatine , the planet lost much of its influence . The retreating Empire eventually abandoned Corulag . Due to Corulag ' s close ties to Palpatine ' s New Order , few members of the New Republic Senate were eager to provide aid to the world . Corulag capitulated to the Yuuzhan Vong after the Battle of Coruscant , though the populace was solidly anti - Vong . Corulag was the site of a battle between elements of the Galactic Alliance Second Fleet led by Admiral Traest Kre ' fey and General Wedge Antilles , en route to an attack on Coruscant , and Yuuzhan Vong forces . Kre ' fey and Antilles liberated the planet from the Yuuzhan Vong , and the collaborationist government was violently " impeached " . Corulag was the site of a battle during the Sith – Imperial War . Oron Jaeger participated in the conflict , where he received a head wound . Behind the scenes . In " Coruscant and the Core Worlds " , it is said that Zafiel Snopps was the senator of the Bormea sector from 33 BBY to 19 BBY . Zafiel Snopps is merely the Imperial governor of Corulag in " The Far Orbit Project " , set in 0 ABY . In " Star Wars Insider 70 " , Arcel Mosbree is the Senator . This is countered , nonetheless , by other sources that declare that Mon Mothma was the senator during that period .
