==Behind the scenes==
The Earl of Vis was first mentioned in the 2000 reference book Inside the Worlds of Star Wars: Episode I, written by Kristin Lund. Set during Queen Amidala's reign, the book established that the earl was cousin to "the old king," implying a family connection with King Veruna, the ruler who preceeded Amidala. The Databank entry for Theed Royal Palace also repeated that statement. However, the 2009 The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia and James Luceno's 2012 novel Darth Plagueis established that the earl was cousin to an ancient king, with the latter specifying that the earl was an ancestor of Veruna.
