New Ralltiir
New Republic historian Voren Na'al interviewed Han Solo about his adventures in the Corporate Sector while Solo and his
family were resting on New Ralltiir.
Ralltiir
Ralltiir, located in the system of the same name, lies along the Perlemian Trade Route in the Darpa sector of the Core Worlds,
just on the border of the Colonies region. Over the last several hundred years, Ralltiir was the only planet in the Darpa sector
that was able to maintain its independence from the nearby world of Esseles. In recent history, Ralltiir was an attractive,
high-technology world famous for its banking industry and home to the Grallia Spaceport. The planet's powerful financial
institutions were politically neutral and had a reputation as a "safe haven" for investors' funds. With the rise of the Empire,
certain factions began to infiltrate Ralltiir's financial system and steer its markets in a pro-Imperial direction-- erasing the fiscal records of alien investors, for instance. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, pro-Alliance members of the Ralltiir High Council tried to stop this and restore balance to the markets-- inspiring the Emperor to use Ralltiir as an example to other worlds that would resist his will. A brutal Imperial force, led by Lord Tion, immediately invaded Ralltiir and left the planet and its ten billion inhabitants in shambles. Tion disbanded the High Council, replaced it with a military tribunal headed by Imperial Governor Dennix Graeber, and set up interrogation centers and public executions of Rebel leaders. He also sealed off the entire Ralltiir system (not even permitting relief organizations to travel through his blockade), severely hurting commerce along the Perlemian Trade Route. Princess Leia Organa, on a mercy mission to deliver medical supplies and equipment to the High Council of Ralltiir, was permitted to land by Tion. The Princess rescued a wounded Rebel soldier, who later revealed the existence of the Death Star project. Ralltiir's economy is now in ruins, as many of its powerful corporations have relocated offworld. Since the occupation, Governor Graeber has been getting rich by secretly supplying the Rebel underground with weapons, which he then uses as a justification to persecute Ralltiir's citizens even further. Prior to the Battle of Yavin, an Alliance raid on the Cygnus Corporation's starfighter performance trials near Ralltiir resulted in the capture of the Assault Gunboat design team. Elea Poista,
a top Exex at Bespin Motors and an occasional Alliance contact, gained her position after transferring from a shipping company
on Ralltiir.
