The Planet of Ralltiir is one of the planets that lies along the Perlemian Trade Route in the Darpa Sector of the Core Worlds. Over the past years Ralltiir was the only planet that could seem to maintain independance from the nearby world of Esseles. Ralltiir is famous for its high-technology, banking industry and is the home of the Grallia Spaceport. Ralltiir's powerful financial institutions are politically netural and have a reputation for being a safe haven for investor's funds. When the Empire began to rise some fractions of the Empire began to infultrate the financial systems, and began to steer it toward the Imperial direction, by erasing the financial records of nonhuman investors. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin the pro-Alliance members of the Ralltiir High Council tried to restore balance to the markets, and their efforts inspired Emperor Palpatine to use Ralltiir as an example to other worlds that resist his will. He had a brutal Imperial Force led by Lord Tion devasated Ralltiir and its 10 billion inhabitants. Tion disbaneded the High Council and replaced it with a military tribunal headed by Governer Dennix Graeber, and set up interrogation centers, and public executions of Rebel leaders. He also sealed off the entire Ralltiir system from relif efforts, which severly hurt Ralltiir's ecconomy. When Princess Leia Organa was permitted to land on Ralltiir to deliver medical supplies on a mercy mission, she rescued a wounded rebel soldier, who later revealed the existence of the Death Star. Ralltiir's ecconomy had been left in ruins and many of the powerful corporations relocated off-world, but Governor Graeber somehow became rich, by secretly supplying the Rebel Underground with weapons, which he then used as a reson to persecute Ralltiir's citizens even more. Before the Battle of Yavin the Alliance raided the Cygnus Corporation's starfighter performance trials near Ralltiir, which resulted in the capture of the Empire's Assault Gunboat design team. Later on durring the New Republic's rise to the become the Galaxy's goverment Ralltiir joined the Council. | |
