Kingdom of Cron

The Kingdom of Cron was a territory carved out in the Tion Cluster. During the rule of Xer VIII, the pirate father of Xim the Despot, it was also known as Xer's Empire. The Kingdom of Cron was governed from the capital Chandaar.
==Description==
The Kingdom of Cron was the government of the region of the Tion Cluster later known as the Cronese Mandate. It was ruled by the King of Cron from the capital world of Chandaar. Its principal worlds were along the Greater Cronese Arc.
==History==
===Early history===
Around 25,150 BBY, the pirate Xer VIII began rapid expansion from his homeworld Argai, creating the Kingdom of Argai within the Kingdom of Cron. King of Cron Ferece summoned Xer to Chandaar, the capital of the Kingdom of Cron. Ferece tried to persuade Xer give an oath of fealty, in return for a number of noble titles, and Xer promised to return in a month with a suitable tribute. However, Xer instead led an attack on Chandaar, causing Ferece and his courtiers to flee. In the absence of Ferece, Xer installed himself as the new King of Cron.
===Xer's Empire===
As the new King of Cron, Xer VIII launched several campaigns to expand his territory. He conquered the Three Allied Kingdoms and the Back Spiral. However he didn't manage to conquer the Livien League, the only part of the Tion Cluster out of his control. Around 25,130 BBY, near the end of Xer's reign, the Kingdom of Cron was divided in three provinces, very similar to the three future Imperial sectors, which one of them was the original Kingdom of Cron.
===Xim's empire===
Later, his son Xim the Despot used the Kingdom of Cron as the base for an even more expansive empire, firstly by conquering the Livien League and his rule soon stretched from the Radama Void to Hutt Space. During that time, Chandaar stayed the capital of the kingdom but Argai became the capital of the empire.
===Later history===
Following the defeat of Xim at the Third Battle of Vontor in 25,096 BBY, his empire quickly collapsed and new states were quickly formed out of the former territory of the empire. The Kingdom of Cron became independent again but its territory was considerably reduced, similar to the original kingdom.
Around 24,000 BBY, the Tion Cluster and the Kingdom of Cron joined the Galactic Republic. In the Republic's final years, the Tion Cluster joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems. At this time, the Tion Cluster was shared between the Kingdom of Cron and a larger Tion Hegemony.
===Modern history===
Following the end of the Clone Wars, the Galactic Empire divided the Tion Cluster in three sectors. The Kingdom of Cron was reorganized as the Cronese Mandate, a sector almost similar to the historical kingdom, and containing the fourteen heavily populated worlds of the former Kingdom of Cron.Mission to Lianna
