Rori was a swampy moon of the planet of Naboo. Its first colony, Narmle, was settled by King Narmle ca. 2,000 BBY. A second colony, Restuss, was founded as a quarantined processing center/spaceport following an outbreak of brainworm rot on Naboo 200 BBY. The Republic attempted to enforce the quarantine even after the plague ended, but the natives rioted, forcing the quarantine's end. The hospital and detainment center were razed in the riots, and a new starport built.

Talus was one of the Twin Worlds located in the Corellian system that orbited Centerpoint Station, the other being Tralus.

The history of Rori is challenged by Naboo scholars. Some of them claim that a small number of Naboo's original Human colonists landed on Rori before traveling down to the more temperate Naboo below. If this theory is correct, then the early settlers left no obvious signs of their stay. Others believe that Rori remained unsettled until a small group of spice miners decided to travel to the moon to search for the fabled spice lodes. Some miners do inhabit the moon, but they live in a primitive lifestyle and have no records of their first landing on the moon.

It was one of the five habitable planets in the Corellian system, and was a temperate world very similar to Corellia. It had a wide range of terrain including forests, grass plains and mud flats.

Rori was inhabited by Human kassoti spice miners and Gungans, as well as Zabrak and Twi'leks. Its wildlife included both native and imported species, some originally from Naboo. The Governor of Rori, Ferrox, sat on the Naboo Royal Advisory Council of Queen Kylantha.
+
Talus was roughly the same size as its sister planet, Tralus. Both orbited a common center of gravity and were together known as the Double Worlds. Talus held many mysteries for explorers. It was rumored that a planetary repulsor was located deep beneath the planetary surface. This device may have been used millennia before the Battle of Yavin to move Talus from an unknown orbit and into its current orbit.
  
−
The rulers of Naboo view Rori as an extension of their domain. Because of this Rori receives regular supplies from Naboo and transportation between Rori and Naboo occurs often. The Empire also viewed Rori as nothing more than a small Naboo outpost. Rori's citizens are far more independent than the Naboo and it was believed that Rori housed some Rebels.  
+
The planet was mostly inhabited by three sentient species: Humans, the Drall and the Selonians. Although the three species mostly lived peacefully, there was a history of political conflict amongst them, usually marked by sporadic violence. Talus was also home to farmers and miners, including a noteworthy Zabrak colony.

Around 500 BBY, the Federation of the Double Worlds was founded, which became the government of Talus and Tralus. The capital of the Federation was Dearic on Talus. Corellia, Selonia, and Drall allied in an attempted takeover of the Federation, which failed. The Federation was allowed a certain degree of autonomy under Imperial rule.

Like Corellia, Talus remained largely neutral in the early days of the Galactic Civil War.

During the Galactic Civil War (approx. 0 ABY) the Galactic Empire began research on a new piece of technology small enough to fit in someone's hand, but powerful enough to power a Death Star. The Rebellion quickly heard of this and began taking precautionary measures, such as building a small base outside the west entrance of the city. The Empire, seeing this threat, also began building a base east of the city and evacuated the local population to a small starport. As the project wore on, it reached a developmental stage that became unstable and destroyed everything within a 200-meter radius around the city, tearing apart the starport and destroying or damaging every building within. The outcome of the battle is unknown, as records disappeared after the fall of the Empire.

Planet - Talus

Description

Talus was one of the Twin Worlds located in the Corellian system that orbited Centerpoint Station, the other being Tralus.

It was one of the five habitable planets in the Corellian system, and was a temperate world very similar to Corellia. It had a wide range of terrain including forests, grass plains and mud flats.

Talus was roughly the same size as its sister planet, Tralus. Both orbited a common center of gravity and were together known as the Double Worlds. Talus held many mysteries for explorers. It was rumored that a planetary repulsor was located deep beneath the planetary surface. This device may have been used millennia before the Battle of Yavin to move Talus from an unknown orbit and into its current orbit.

The planet was mostly inhabited by three sentient species: Humans, the Drall and the Selonians. Although the three species mostly lived peacefully, there was a history of political conflict amongst them, usually marked by sporadic violence. Talus was also home to farmers and miners, including a noteworthy Zabrak colony.

Around 500 BBY, the Federation of the Double Worlds was founded, which became the government of Talus and Tralus. The capital of the Federation was Dearic on Talus. Corellia, Selonia, and Drall allied in an attempted takeover of the Federation, which failed. The Federation was allowed a certain degree of autonomy under Imperial rule.

Like Corellia, Talus remained largely neutral in the early days of the Galactic Civil War. The Galactic Empire monitored Talus for Rebel activity, but allowed Fed-Dub to operate independently and didn't interfere with the planets major corporations. Although Talus wasn't as well known as Corellia, it had a vibrant economy that revolved around starship manufacturing.

During the First Corellian Crisis, the Tralus and Talus Liberation Party advocated independence for both worlds. It was later blockaded during the Second Corellian Crisis.
