Jedi High Council

**The Jedi High Council** is the leading body of the Jedi Order, based on Coruscant in the Jedi Temple. Membership on the Council is exceedingly difficult to achieve and is attained by only the most dedicated Jedi, true exemplars of the Jedi Code. This Council supersedes the authority of all other councils of Jedi formed throughout the galaxy at smaller temples or Jedi sites.
