Metellos Trade Route

The Metellos Trade Route was a hyperspace route that lead to Coruscant, a planet in the Corusca sector's Coruscant systemUltimate Star Wars, New Edition in the Interior and Core Worlds regions. Coruscant served as capital of both the Galactic Empire and Galactic Republic and acted as a junction onto the Corellian Run, Perlemian Trade Route, Koros Trunk Line, Stassia Alley, Nexus Route, and Namadii Corridor routes. The route shared its name with the Core Worlds planet Metellos.
In 7957 C.R.C., Coruscant Security Force Inspector Tanivos Divo learned of a rash of pirate activity taking place along the route but uncovered little evidence. Based on what he had, Divo put out an interdivisional call for information on Weequay raiders and received a large volume of responses, with many mentioning the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka of the Ohnaka Gang. Divo's grandson, Exantor Divo, later mentioned Divo's investigation relating to the route in his book, Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, which he published in 34 ABY.
